A high-performance and properly sized heating and cooling system are important features of an ENERGY STAR qualified home. HERS Raters work with ENERGY STAR homebuilders to ensure the proper sizing of your HVAC system. Bigger is not always better with HVAC equipment. Your house may not require a big unit because the home works as an energy-efficient system. Properly sized systems require less maintenance and last longer. By combining an energy-efficient HVAC system with appropriate insulation, air sealing, and windows, you can reduce your energy bills, increase the durability of your HVAC equipment, and reduce the greenhouse gases in the air we breathe.
