Maximum Efficiency Comes with Proper Installation

This unit offers very efficient operation when it is running properly – and that is a direct result of the quality of installation.  Studies have shown improperly installed units may operate well below their rated efficiencies, 3-5 SEER points below in many cases.  And of course, when a gas furnace is part of a hybrid heating system, improper installation can lead to gas or carbon monoxide leaks or wiring fires, plus damage to the equipment.  For these reasons, it always makes the most sense to hire a qualified contractor to install and set up the system components to run at their peak efficiency while delivering safe, reliable heating and cooling.
