00:08 this is the one that I love the most 00:11 being a technical minded person I get 00:14 this question usually from my more 00:16 mature audience 00:17 I want you to put a bigger system in so 00:20 we'll go to a 1,500 square foot house 00:22 and they'll say I want a big five ton 00:24 unit and usually I find that these are 00:26 my hot dog guys they took a Camaro that 00:28 had a six-cylinder in it and stuffed a 00:30 big ol v8 in it with a supercharger to 00:32 try to make it go faster 00:34 well in the world of cars it's it's 00:36 better to go faster than the more faster 00:38 the more fun essentially but when you're 00:40 heating and air conditioning the home 00:41 bigger is not better we actually have 00:44 certain rules and guidelines that we 00:46 need to follow to heat and cool the 00:47 house dumping a ton of heat into the 00:49 house is actually less efficient than 00:51 heating it slowly trying to remove the 00:54 heat from the house in a slower fashion 00:57 works better than just trying to dump a 00:58 bunch of air in the house without any 00:59 heat so it's very important that when 01:02 you get a new system that you don't go 01:04 bigger you want to get the proper size 01:06 that matches your heat load your duck 01:08 calculations and something that's going 01:10 to be energy efficient for you bigger is 01:12 not always better in the HVAC world
