Jun – Sep · 7-month season
Sized for the August attic, not the May afternoon. 16 SEER2 minimum, two-stage condenser, return-air actually big enough for the blower.

A 1,800 sq ft house in Plano and a 1,800 sq ft house in Akron need almost nothing in common from an HVAC system. Square-footage rules of thumb don’t survive a single August or a single February. Here’s what we actually engineer for, by region and season.
Jun – Sep · 7-month season
Sized for the August attic, not the May afternoon. 16 SEER2 minimum, two-stage condenser, return-air actually big enough for the blower.
Jun – Aug · humid not extreme
Right-sized so the system runs long enough to dehumidify. An oversized AC short-cycles and leaves the basement clammy.
5 – 10 days a year, mostly shoulder
Heat pump as the primary; gas furnace wakes up only at the 22°F design day. Strip heat is the backup, not the workhorse.
Dec – Feb · single-digit nights
Cold-climate heat pump that holds capacity below 17°F, dual-fuel cutover wired to your zip-code design temp, oversized return so the duct doesn’t collapse on high stage.
A formal Manual J load calculation — the room-by-room version, not a rule-of-thumb — runs on every change-out before any equipment is quoted.

HVAC work is invisible the day after install. A new compressor looks like the old compressor. So the proof has to be on paper — signed, dated, taped to the door, and filed with the manufacturer. Every job leaves all five.
The room-by-room sizing calculation, in writing, before any equipment shows up. Square-footage rules of thumb don’t survive an attic in August.

A free walk-through. No pressure, in writing. We run a Manual J load calc, talk through repair-or-replace with the math, and name the cheap fix before the costly one. We won't sell a new system when a $300 part holds. Most quotes back inside 24 hours.
