Introduction

Reliable Heating & Cooling, a trusted HVAC service provider in the St. Charles County area of Missouri, recently undertook a challenging project that showcased their expertise in air conditioning installation and HVAC system optimization. This case study examines how the company successfully improved the comfort and energy efficiency of a large residential property in O’Fallon, MO.

Client Background

The client, a family of five, had been experiencing persistent issues with their home’s cooling system for several years. Their existing air conditioner was over 15 years old and struggled to maintain comfortable temperatures during the hot Missouri summers. Additionally, they were concerned about rising energy costs and wanted a more efficient solution.

Challenges

  • Uneven cooling throughout the 3,500 square foot home
  • Outdated and inefficient air conditioning unit
  • High energy bills during summer months
  • Poor indoor air quality

Solution

After a thorough assessment of the property and the client’s needs, Reliable Heating & Cooling proposed a comprehensive HVAC installation plan:

  1. Replace the old AC unit with a high-efficiency, variable-speed air conditioner
  2. Install a smart thermostat for improved temperature control and energy management
  3. Upgrade the ductwork to enhance airflow and eliminate leaks
  4. Implement a whole-home air purification system

Implementation

The Reliable Heating & Cooling team executed the project over the course of five days, minimizing disruption to the family’s daily routine. They began by removing the old AC unit and carefully installing the new, energy-efficient model. The team then methodically inspected and upgraded the existing ductwork, sealing leaks and improving insulation where necessary.

To address the uneven cooling issues, they installed dampers in strategic locations throughout the duct system, allowing for better airflow control to each room. The smart thermostat was then integrated into the system, providing the family with enhanced control over their home’s climate and energy usage.

Finally, the team installed a whole-home air purification system to improve indoor air quality and reduce allergens and pollutants.

Results

Following the completion of the project, the client reported significant improvements in their home’s comfort and energy efficiency:

  • Even temperature distribution throughout the house
  • 20% reduction in monthly energy bills
  • Improved indoor air quality, with family members reporting fewer allergy symptoms
  • Enhanced control and convenience through the smart thermostat
