608-837-3638How Does Central A/C Work?
Central air conditioning systems use a refrigeration cycle to absorb heat from your home using an evaporator inside a furnace or air handler. That heat is then released outside at the condenser unit. The cool air is then distributed throughout your home using a series of air ducts that are usually shared with the furnace. Central air conditioners are typically best for large homes that use a furnace for heating, though they can be combined with other heating systems like boilers. Zoning features can also be added to make a central air conditioning system more flexible, with individual temperature control in each zone.
If you have a smaller home, a new addition, or your home has no air ducts, other options like ductless mini-splits may be a more cost-effective cooling solution. However, air ducts can be added if central air conditioning is desired. At Action, we install and service central air conditioning systems, as well as ductless A/C units and heat pumps. Our experts can recommend the ideal system for your needs and budget, and we make the process easy with our impressive financing options and professional installations.

Central Air Conditioning FAQs
Why is my A/C unit making strange noises?
If the noise sounds like creaking, pinging, or popping, it may be just the air ducts expanding and contracting as they heat and cool. If you hear buzzing, grinding, squealing, or screeching noises, there may be more serious mechanical problems or damage to the compressor. Call our team at Action to be sure.
Should I choose a larger A/C unit for better cooling?
No, a central A/C unit should be carefully matched to the size and characteristics of your home using ACCA Manual J sizing procedures. A system that’s too small will run too often, decreasing its efficiency and service life, while a system that is too large will only run for minutes at a time, reducing its dehumidification performance, harming its efficiency, and increasing the chance of moisture, mold, and bacterial problems. At Action, we can recommend the right system size for your needs.
