Why should you consider a variable-speed heating and air conditioning system for your home? Variable-speed HVAC technology has improved HVAC systems in recent years. So, do you need a variable-speed HVAC system? What are the benefits of having one? Read on to find out more.

It is important to understand what a variable-speed HVAC system is before having one installed in your home. A variable-speed HVAC system, such as top-of-the-line units made by Bryant Heating & Cooling Systems, is one of the most efficient systems available to homeowners. This type of system makes small adjustments to the blower fan speed to deliver comfort and maximize energy efficiency. It is known for providing steady, even heating or cooling, while using minimal electricity. A variable-speed HVAC system is extremely effective and tends to last longer than many other types of home HVAC systems.

The benefits of variable-speed HVAC systems include continuous and steady comfort, better humidity control, improved indoor air quality, energy savings, and cost savings. In Texas, this type of HVAC system is a good choice for homeowners who need year-round heating and cooling peace of mind, but especially throughout the long, hot summers. No one wants to be uncomfortably cool or warm in their own home. Indoor comfort is often the first consideration for homeowners when choosing a home HVAC system, especially in Texas—it is key to have air conditioning that can handle the warm springs and even warmer summers Texans deal with every year. According to Mark LeGare, owner of the Austin, Texas-based professional HVAC installation and maintenance company The Coolest, variable-speed systems like the Bryant Evolution Extreme and Evolution models are quality HVAC choices for Texans interested in maximum effectiveness and efficiency. (Bonus: these systems might even qualify homeowners for utility company rebates!)

A variable-speed HVAC system reduces the possibility of discomfort by keeping the air temperature as close as possible to the temperature that’s set on the thermostat during longer heating or cooling cycles. The variable speed allows for fewer fluctuations in temperature. More even, consistent comfort is the result of this precision, with fewer hot spots and cold spots in the house due to better overall air circulation. Texas homeowners with variable-speed systems have the advantage of year-round comfort, which is really important during the hottest seasons. Bottom line: a higher level of precision means greater, more consistent comfort.

Variable-speed HVAC systems also provide better humidity control than other systems. This is a great benefit for homeowners because inadequate levels of humidity in a home can have adverse effects on overall comfort and health, as well as negatively impacting the indoor air quality. They can remove suitable amounts of moisture from the air to maintain a level of humidity that keeps people feeling as comfortable as possible, within the range of the ideal relative humidity for human comfort and health in a home. (The ideal humidity level is between 30-50%, according to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission.) With a variable-speed home HVAC system, this is more easily achievable than ever; enhanced humidity control is a major benefit of having a variable-speed system.

Improved indoor air quality is another major benefit of having a variable-speed HVAC system. This kind of system offers better air filtration. How? Because of the longer, lower-speed cycles of a variable-speed system, air moves through the filters nearly continuously; this means that airborne contaminants and pollutants are removed from the air more efficiently and effectively than by other HVAC units. And it helps that variable-speed systems generally use higher-efficiency air filters, too. The enhanced indoor air quality matters for overall health and comfort, since people spend the majority of their time inside, especially in these current days of schooling and working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. (HVAC systems have proven to be valuable tools in the fight against the novel coronavirus and the resulting COVID-19 disease.)

Variable-speed HVAC systems are energy-savers as well, and help decrease the carbon footprint of families who use them in their homes. They provide greater energy efficiency because, unlike other types of home HVAC systems which use a lot of energy each time they start and stop (which occurs multiple times per day), variable-speed systems run at lower speeds for longer and more consistent periods. They modulate the speed of the HVAC blower motor, adjusting to meet and maintain a set temperature; so they don’t have to use the extra energy that other systems use for continued starting and stopping and for running at full capacity the entire time.

Lower operating costs round out this list of major variable-speed HVAC system benefits. Because these HVAC systems operate at a low speed and without frequent starts and stops, they use less electricity than other HVAC systems. Their blower motors operate much more efficiently as well. These key attributes mean less power is needed to operate variable-speed systems than other HVAC units, and less power use means lower costs. Variable-speed HVAC technology can be applied to HVAC zone control systems which are used in many homes today, whether the original system or retrofitted; the technology works very well with these systems to deliver the correct amount of air to each specified zone in the house. This further increases the level of energy efficiency and helps reduce cooling expenses that much more. Bonus: upgrading your system to a variable-speed HVAC system also may increase the overall value of your home. Installing a variable-speed HVAC system is an investment; the return on that investment through the energy savings and equity makes it worth it.

Installing a variable-speed HVAC system is a sure way to keep yourself and your family comfortable in your home; plus, it will help to keep your energy usage and utility costs at a minimum.
