What Are the Signs of an Efficient HVAC System?

June 18, 2024

Choosing an efficient HVAC system for your space greatly impacts your overall comfort and monthly savings. Efficiency minimizes AC repair needs, energy costs, and environmental impact, and ensures you enjoy a consistent temperature in your space.

Consumers unfamiliar with today’s HVAC systems may struggle to find the most efficient units for their homes. Fortunately, the friendly experts at ProFlo can quickly identify the best HVAC options. We’re familiar with the components and ratings that identify high-quality units.

Say goodbye to the burden of high energy bills and heavy carbon footprints, thanks to ProFlo and our team of passionate technicians. We offer air conditioner installation, heater maintenance, and AC replacement to ensure your home is optimized for efficiency.

Read on to learn more about the various HVAC systems and their identifying signs. Then, trust ProFlo to install your chosen unit quickly and efficiently.

Energy Star Certified Systems

A trusted method for quickly identifying energy-efficient HVAC systems is to look for units with the Energy Star label. This label means the HVAC unit has met strict guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, making it a particularly efficient choice.

Energy Star-certified systems are guaranteed to save you hundreds while keeping you comfortable in your space. Your wallet won’t be the only one to benefit. These HVAC systems reduce greenhouse gas emissions, lowering your impact on the environment.

Financially conscious residents who value sustainability can be confident in their Energy Star-certified system. To prolong these benefits to the full extent, support your unit with AC maintenance from a professional like ProFlo.

Streamlined Variable Refrigerant Flow

Air conditioning units optimized by VRF offer a more customizable approach to temperature control. While traditional systems have only two primary operating methods—full capacity or nothing—VRF systems tailor their output to a given space.

VRF air conditioning will target the rooms in your home or business that need adjustment while leaving the others untouched. This reduces unnecessary AC use and energy consumption, reducing the strain on your system while providing comfort where needed.

There’s no need to get up and walk to the thermostat to make changes. Simply pull out your smartphone, make the necessary adjustments, and leave your air conditioner to work. This efficiency makes it easier to prevent energy waste during cooler times of the year.

High-Efficiency HVAC Systems

Certain HVAC systems use innovative features like variable-speed fans and multi-stage compressors to maximize energy efficiency. These units can reduce energy consumption by an impressive 20 percent. You’ll immediately notice the effect on your next energy bill.

These units can be identified by a high SEER and HSPF score. These rating systems measure the efficiency of HVAC systems and identify those that comply with modern standards—government agencies for environmental protection back these systems, boosting reliability.

Geothermal Heat Pumps

These heating systems offer a unique but effective method for energy-efficient heating and cooling. They use the earth’s natural temperature as a “heat sink” (source) to minimize the need for electricity to manipulate internal temperatures.

Heating installation costs are higher for geothermal heat pump systems, but the long-term savings may balance the upfront costs. You’ll also enjoy the peace of mind of knowing your carbon footprint is significantly reduced.

ProFlo Air is amazing. We have worked with them on a couple of projects including our heat exchangers for our swimming pool (…) Now, our pool is heated whenever we turn on our AC. I recently needed a new AC unit for upstairs and ProFlo was there for me as my husband recently passed away… He even sent me flowers as I grieved the loss of my husband. Now that’s going above and beyond. I would highly recommend ProFlo Air. Thanks for being GREAT ProFlo

Kiesa G. from Temecula, CA

Called several companies and Proflo was the only one to call us back. They were so great and fast. Anthony got our unit up and running and gave us a lot of helpful information. We also signed up for their yearly inspection. We’re feeling very happy to have found such a great company! Anthony is awesome! Thank you!

Julie Spice

Contacted ProFlo through Yelp via email on Sunday (Fathers Day) late afternoon about our AC unit and the fan not turning. Carissa was very quick to reply in just a few minutes and set up an appointment the very next day. Anthony came out and had us quickly up and running. Anthony was great and explained everything he was checking, and showed us the results, every step of the way. He was very friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend anyone to check them out!

Rob S. from Temecula, CA

It has been a few years since they installed a new HVAC system in our home and we love it. The overall professionalism and quality of work was outstanding. Bonus is how much we are saving with a quality & efficient system. Highly recommend!
Also, we signed up for the scheduled maintenance program. They provide a complete and detailed service. Excellent.

Jack Munroe

I had Jared come out for a plumbing inspection – he was very thorough and did a great job of diagnosing a water hammer I was having.  The problem was quickly resolved.  They were very conscious about the house and did a great job of cleaning up.

(…) He did an excellent job of reviewing my system and explaining all of the various checks he was conducting.  He is very knowledgable and took the time to completely explain any issues he noticed or future items I should be concerned about.

I highly recommend ProFlo as I was very happy and satisfied with their service!

Patrick N. from Temecula, CA

(…) Brian junior came out, and handled our air conditioning unit, very professionally, great service, and good pricing. He was able to fix the problem that the other Plumber left us. Brian just came out to look at our mini split for a different reason, and most plumbers would charge $150 just to come out and look he didn’t charge anything, and is not a nickel and dime or he’s an honest man with an honest, reputable great company. I can’t recommend them more highly. You will not be dissatisfied, 100%. I’m thankful we found them through our good friend;)

Olga Diaz

Bryan was professional, on time, informative, respectful, and very knowledge. He gave me a very detailed explanation and walk thru of the issues along with very reasonable costs. Within no time he got our AC back up and running with nice cold air. I highly recommend. Definitely grateful to have the owner personally work on the unit and hear about the rich history of his family owned business.

Michael V.

I love ProFlo Services! They have done a wonderful job with every service they have performed. I trust them and that’s a rare these days. They have fixed other so called professional company’s mistakes. I highly recommend them! They have integrity!

Kelly Mahoney

I have hired Proflo AC for both Ac work and Plumbing. I have been significantly impressed with both the quality of work and the of course the price. (…) Fair pricing. The quality of work on the other hand is top notch. Most recently, Josh and his team came out to install a mini split. They were on time, communicated well, and most of all the installation went off without a hitch from start to finish. As a local business owner, I highly highly recommend giving these guys a call. I have had work done by other local companies in the past, to say I was not satisfied is an understatement, thankfully I have found my new AC and plumbing guys! Next Im having them do a bunch of work on my house. Don’t just think about it, hire them.

Randy F.

I had a great experience with this company, they were very responsive from day one . Enrique was very willing to accommodate requested services and made sure everything was done right . He fixed my issue quickly, walked me through everything he was working on and was very transparent about pricing. I would highly recommend this company.

Axcel Flores

Bryan set an appointment with us and showed up on time. He went through what we had and then suggested the Carrier package. Within the hour he gave us a bid. We agreed I would have a decision in a few days. Once I approved Bryan again came to our home along with his son Bryan Jr.And one of his field supervisors. They were extremely professional and I knew they would be trustworthy. Our system was installed in 2 days. The crew was very professional and ensured everything they did was complete and the area cleared and clean. The customer service is excellent and we are now enjoying a quiet and great system. I would highly recommend the Proflo team.

John F.

The crew was on time, took great pains to cover surfaces that would receive debris from duct cleaning and duct replacement along with the HVAC. The team was professional, efficient, worked tirelessly and took the time to show us how the system worked after cleaning up and before departing… We appreciate that this was done on the day before Thanksgiving, when most folks are traveling to family or preparing food for the holiday!

Zero Payments and Zero Interest for 18 Months

Key Features of the Financing Plan:

  • Zero Payments and Zero Interest for 18 Months: During the introductory period, you won’t have to worry about making any payments or accruing any interest. This allows you to manage your budget without immediate financial strain.
  • No Payment and No Interest if Paid in Full During 18-Month Intro Period: If you pay off the entire balance within the 18-month introductory period, you will not incur any interest charges. This means you can enjoy the benefits of your new AC system now and pay later, interest-free.

How It Works:

  1. No Payments During the Introductory Period: For the first 18 months, you won’t be required to make any payments. This gives you ample time to settle into your new cooling system and experience its benefits without the pressure of immediate costs.
  2. No Interest Charged if Paid in Full During the Introductory Period: If you pay off the total amount within the 18-month period, you will not be charged any interest. This can be an excellent opportunity to finance your AC installation without additional costs.
  3. Interest Accrual and Re-Amortization if Not Paid in Full: If the balance is not paid in full by the end of the 18-month introductory period, the interest that would have accrued during that time will be added to the remaining balance. This new balance will then convert to a standard installment loan with regular payments for the remainder of the term.

Benefits of Choosing Our Financing Plan:

  • Flexible Payment Options: Whether you prefer to pay off the balance within 18 months to avoid interest or spread out the payments over a longer period, our financing plan adapts to your needs.
  • Easy Application Process: Applying for financing through GoodLeap is quick and straightforward, allowing you to get approval and proceed with your installation without hassle.

Improved Home Comfort: Upgrade to a more efficient and reliable air conditioning system now, and start enjoying a cooler, more comfortable home right away.
