Important Considerations

Finding the Right System for Your North Carolina Home

Proper Sizing Matters
When it comes to an AC, bigger isn’t always better. While some homeowners may mistake a bigger size with greater cooling power, a system that is too large for your home won’t operate as efficiently and could result in higher energy bills. On the other hand, a system that is too small won’t meet your cooling needs. That’s why it's important for our Ace Hardware Home Service technicians to perform load calculations to ensure sizing is correct for your home.

Central AC vs. Heat Pumps vs. Ductless
From heat pumps to ductless AC installations in Hickory and Denver, NC, our technicians have the skills and experience to install cool options other than traditional central AC. For those homeowners looking for superior energy efficiency, these two systems can reduce utility bills without compromising comfort. Plus, each offers its own unique benefits.

Heat pumps are a single system that can both heat and cool your home, streamlining your home comfort and providing more consistent temperatures. If you’re looking for more opportunities to personalize your comfort, a ductless system can allow you to set different temperatures in each zone of your home, cutting down on wasted energy and meeting the needs of your entire family.

High-Efficiency Systems & Available Rebates
At Ace Hardware Home Services, we’re committed to a sustainable future. That’s why we offer a full range of energy-efficient systems that lower your carbon footprint while keeping you cool. Plus, many of these systems qualify for local and state rebates and tax credits, and our team can help you take advantage of these savings.
