Complete duct distribution system

Complete energy efficient duct system designed and pre-cut specifically for your application. Using the ultimate duct system materials, Fiberglass Duct Board by Owens-Corning and pre-cut by DESCO Energy. Fiberglass duct board is more easily installed and adapted to every installation avoiding traditional sheet metal. It is also energy saving reducing heat transfer and air leakage losses. Sheet metal duct systems leak on average 25 cents of every energy dollar and are difficult and bulky to install. Sheet metal is not only unforgiving but also has hazardous razor sharp edges. In addition to sheet metal's air leakage problems, there is also the high transfer of energy lost through thin metal walls. If you were to attempt to use the equivalent in sheet metal ducting the cost of sheet metal plus the cost of fiberglass duct liner considered plus the intense labor required to make the ducting and to install it is four times the cost of Fiberglass Duct Board. And even using this method, sheet metal still has high air leakage problems. There is nothing more efficient, cost effective and easier to install than pre-cut Fiberglass Duct Board. Fiberglass duct board is not the traditional fiberglass round ducting. Typical round flex fiberglass ducting is not the best product to be using in abundance due to it's ability to compress easily when making turns or elbows which severely restricts air flow. In addition round fiberglass flexible ducting should never be run more than six feet. Flex duct needs to be properly supported with sheet metal banding. Flex ducting should never be made into elbows or bends. Instead a metal elbow should be used and the flex duct insulation should be pulled over the elbow to prevent energy loss and condensation. Fiberglass duct board can be purchased in various pre-cut sizes and with various insulating capabilities. Energy efficiency is not only due to the natural high insulation values but equally important is the low leakage factor of 4% which is second to none. Please see our other ads for a complete pre-cut fiberglass duct system for your project. Specialized tools are required for fiberglass duct systems which we rent at very low nominal fee.

Furnace Feet

Labor Saver Return Air Filter Plenum

High Media Filter (We strongly recommend the use of a high media filter on every ultra          efficient gas furnace. Why? Standard filters leak a lot of dirt which bypasses the filters and will get caught and will literally melt on to the fine finned coils of the secondary heat exchanger. This mess can't be removed even by steam cleaning and rapidly clogs the air flow and causes premature furnace failure. This problem is not covered under any warranty. Plus high media filters allow you to keep your house clean from pollen, smoke and other pollutants while keeping your duct system free from heavy dirt build up which shows up as black marks on walls at air registers. Dirt in ducting is also a perfect breeding ground for dust mites, mold and all types of other critters.

Humidifier - Concerned about the H1N1 Swine Flu? A humidifier is proven to be an excellent defense against the spread of viruses in the winter months by providing a moist environment which is not conducive to viruses. Moist air also prevents drying of the respiratory track which becomes weakened and inflamed by dry winter air. No other single product does so much to save energy and increase comfort as well as providing so many numerous other benefits as a humidifier. You can reduce the thermostat setting by 5 degrees and have the same feeling of comfort.

Important Information and Guidelines to a Successful HVAC Installation

Before you make any decision about purchasing any heating or air conditioning system online there are  important facts you should know. This information will make the difference in whether your installation is successful allowing you to achieve optimum energy savings, comfort and longevity at the lowest cost. 

More than 70% of existing residential heating and cooling systems are oversized and improperly installed. (Facts stated are derived from Dept. of Energy and Penn State Home Survey Studies)  These cut backs are responsible for over 98% of warranty claims and premature system failures. Oversized equipment is a result of guesswork and rules of thumb from over 25 years ago. Undersized ducting is a result of the installer using whatever space is available and scrimping on materials. The installer chosen by the building contractor was the absolute lowest price. Unknown to the public is the unbelievably low prices and extremely low profit HVAC (HVAC-Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning) installers make on new construction. Since the HVAC system is not any priority other than necessity for the builder, no attention is given to the proper layout or performance. The only concern of a prospective homeowner might be the name of the manufacturer. So we get what we pay for. Yet intense attention is made to kitchen cabinets, flooring etc. while the system that will consume the bulk of every household budget goes completely unnoticed. This is why even multi-million dollar homes are many times left with the poorest comfort conditions and excessive energy consumption. It takes a complete system properly designed and installed to achieve the rated energy efficiency of the equipment. Even with the most efficient furnace, heat pump or boiler, one weak link in the system and the energy consumption goes through the roof and comfort levels are unbearable. Optimal comfort and energy efficiency aren't exclusive to each other, they both go hand in hand.  

Today's Economy

Nobody needs to be reminded of the bleak economic forecast and outrageous energy cost increases. And there's no relief or light at the end of this tunnel. Saving energy by reducing consumption is a high priority for any homeowner. We all need to cut our energy consumption wherever we can. Today it becomes not only a great concern but also for economic survival. So none of us know where the ceiling exists or if there is a ceiling to energy costs. There's no doubt that OPEC and their comrades, the big energy companies, are in bed together and apparently won't be satisfied until they destroy our economy.

As homeowners the only weapons we have to fight back against this onslaught is to use alternative fuels such as coal, biofuels, wood, scrap and grains and/or reduce consumption regardless of what fuel sources are utilized.

DESCO Energy pioneered sales and distribution of heating and cooling systems direct to homeowners and businesses over 35 years ago.  It is from this wealth of many years experience we have developed technical assistance, guidelines and requirements for the Do It Yourselfer that make your installation successful. Our pioneering expertise of over 35 years has provided guidance for tens of thousands of homeowners and businesses into successful installations. Success being measured by supplying maximum comfort, energy savings and longevity to every heating and cooling system. Proof of these results being measured by sales of tens of thousands of systems over the course of 35 years without one single customer complaint. We are the only HVAC supplier boasting the highest sales volume, zero customer complaints, longest track record in the HVAC industry along with the lowest warranty claims in our industry. That statement translates into a sales volume of literally tens of thousands of systems over an incredible time frame of 35 years and no complaints. WoW! And you can verify this through a number of outside sources including the Better Business Bureau. What that means for you is that by following our methods and requirements, it is almost a certainty you will achieve complete success in your HVAC system selection, sizing, installation, comfort, energy performance and equipment longevity. And isn't that your ultimate goal anyway? From our website which provides thousands of pages of information directed and written especially for you, the homeowner do it yourselfer, to our technical support team which assists you in selecting the right system for your budget, location, type of house structure and available fuels, to our online sizing form which utilizes the top industry and engineering standards in providing the correct size system removing any guesswork, to our warranty validation form which insures your system has met and exceeds all manufacturers requirements for a complete successful system. While we may not always be the lowest price online, we are the only source where you can have confidence your system will be right, the first time every time. It is the tools and support we've developed over many years of experience that have proven themselves through the test of time and through tens of thousands of installations similar to your own. Considering where and why you should buy your new HVAC system consider the facts, the results, the volume of sales, the length of time and the reputation of the seller and we feel confident DESCO Energy will surpass all others. You'll quickly see why DESCO Energy would be your best and only choice. In addition to all of the wealth of support we provide another key factor is DESCO Energy is the only online source offering in writing the factory warranties direct.  No other online seller either on eBay or the web provides and makes claims to any of the above and no other seller can substantiate any such claims. We can and we do.

If you dig deep enough you'll discover the vast majority of online sellers work out of their homes, have no credible training or direct relationship with the manufacturer or make any claims. We understand you have many choices when considering where you'll make your HVAC equipment purchase. But no other source online stocks and distributes over 5,000 different HVAC products. Nor does any other source provide the complete system including pre-cut ducting specifically designed and tailored for your application. We ship systems daily all across the country and Canada and more and more our customers are electing to purchase a complete system including the ducting which can the be erected and assembled like an erector set on site at your house or business.  The more you dig into DESCO Energy the more you'll discover what we offer. And we strongly recommend regardless of where you place your final decision to check out all sources at the Better Business Bureau. Dig deeper and check out where the seller's located on Google maps. You might be shocked in finding many work out of their homes and have no real brick and mortar operation anywhere. For most of them as little as five or ten years ago they didn't know anymore about HVAC equipment than you do now. Is that where you want to place your confidence to purchase the most important system that consumes your highest household budgetary costs?  And now their experts?? They are the reason manufacturers such as Goodman found it necessary to exclude their sales form any warranty coverage. Extremely high warranty claims, premature equipment failures, oversized equipment, poor comfort and terrible reputations left for the manufacturers as well as costs to clean up the messes they made for too many homeowners.

At DESCO Energy we've always provided factory trained NATE certified technical support. Few outsiders to our industry understand what that means. NATE is the only recognized HVAC industry group that provides certifiable industry recognized and approved standards for training and performance. NATE certified technicians must constantly study, be tested to assure their knowledge, performance as well as technical expertise is up to date and certified. The NATE certification assures you each DESCO Energy support team member is a high achiever and knows the latest industry standards to assist you in the proper procedures and methods for any assistance of problems or questions that may arise. It is the highest level of achievement recognized throughout the entire HVAC industry. In addition to the NATE certification each technical support team member has been factory trained and has complete knowledge and experience in the installation service and repair of every type of equipment and system we provide. You can't obtain this high level of certified support anywhere else online.  industry.  and warranties direct to our customers and the installer. d for one purpose and one purpose only, to make certain your HVAC system is successful. So we ask you, does any other seller offer any of the technical support, guidelines, equipment selection and warranty support as DESCO Energy? It's should be obvious by their ads and lack of any website assistance or certified technical or warranty support they're primary concern is simply selling boxes. They advertise boxes and boxes are the only legitimate items you'll receive. Whether it's the right box for your house is anybody's guess. Does any other seller have the experience and reputation as DESCO Energy? And are they listed on the Better Business Bureau without incident? To this we say a resounding no. One unnecessary service call or continual problems with your new system will more than devour any cost savings you thought you might have gained. This is why Goodman and many other manufacturers deny warranty support on their sales. The headaches and warranty claims created by the inexperienced, untrained and non support sellers provide to an uneducated homeowner are the reasons why all major HVAC manufacturers have found it necessary to void the warranties on their sales.  All you can do is the digging and make certain you're not their next victim. So if it's success you want DESCO Energy is your choice.

As a do it yourself homeowner you can save an average of 70% off of a contractor quoted installation by doing most of the work yourself. As a homeowner with little do it yourself skills you can also save an average of 30% off a contractor quoted installation by hiring a competent licensed installer of your choice rather than using a contractor to do your installation. Both methods result in an average 50% reduction in energy consumption. Bottom line there are thousands of dollars that can be saved by making your heating and air conditioning system a do it yourself project.

Regardless of the method you choose you will need a licensed professional installer to complete your project. Refrigerant lines and final wiring hook ups and check out of the system must be performed by a licensed professional installer of your choice. If you are intending to make your project a 100% DIY project without the use of a licensed professional installer you will void the manufacturers warranty and be in violation of federal, state and local laws and possibly jeopardize your homeowner's insurance coverage should any future problems result from or be traced back to the HVAC installation. Remember we don't require a licensed contractor to do the finalization of your system, just the experienced licensed installer that works for the contractor saving you a lot of $$$$

The above facts apply regardless of where you purchase your system and the manufacturer you use.

DESCO Energy has one primary goal.

DESCO Energy has never tried to sell to any homeowner on the basis of simply being the lowest price. Yet when you look at all of the work we put into providing you with valuable information, certified factory trained NATE certified technical support, guidelines, online sizing form and a reputation and track record as well as sales volume second to none, we are the best value for your money in every category. We could be like other sellers and forget about these valuable and costly support services but we have the experience and certifications to know there's a lot more required than just offering boxes of cardboard in our ads to make your success. Our goal is to provide you with our knowledge expertise, equipment, information, guidelines and requirements to make your new HVAC system successful. Success is defined as a system that provides maximum energy savings, optimum comfort and longevity. Anything less is unacceptable.

We offer and require review of your application to select the correct size system that will provide the most efficient system for your budget. We provide online information to help you understand the various systems available and how their features add additional energy savings.

We will review your present duct system to determine if it is sized and design correctly.

We provide a warranty validation form to be completed by your installer to be completed and returned to us upon completion confirming your system has been installed and is operating at peak performance. 

The Factory Warranties in our industry can only be supported by an authorized factory dealer or distributor. They are the source for all warranty support and not the manufacturer. If a seller is not affiliated with the manufacturer they cannot legitimately state they provide the Authorized Factory Warranty of the products they advertise. And no warranty is supported by any Manufacturer, Distributor or Dealer if there is no evidence of a properly sized and installed system. DESCO Energy provides you with indisputable methods of sizing and installation in accordance with industry standards and exceed all manufacturers' requirements.

There are many questions you may have and you'll find the answers at our new website. Questions such as:

How do I size my system? How do I select the best system for my house? How do I design a duct system? Can I or DESCO Energy design and provide an efficient duct system for me? Is a heat pump the most practical system for me? How do heat pumps work? What is a geothermal heat pump? Would a geothermal heat pump be better for me? What is a dual fuel system? What is variable speed and two stage? What do these features mean to me as far as comfort and energy savings? How do I find an installer to do the final hook up and check out?

We provide duct sizing and design and/or analysis of your duct system when you make a purchase of a system from us at no extra charge.

When considering doing your own system installation there are established guidelines and requirements to assist you in making the most successful installation. Success as measured in energy efficiency, reduced energy consumption and equipment longevity.

The first area of concern is the size and type of system to chose. This is where the most common mistake is made resulting in oversized equipment. Oversizing of systems is the main cause of poor comfort, excessive energy consumption, increased warranty claims and premature equipment failures. Forget about the old American adage and culture that believes "Bigger is better" and "If a little is good than a whole lot more should be great!"  The worst mistake is to put in a larger than required system.

To begin make certain the system you select is the right size.

How do I determine which size system would be the right size for me?

DESCO Energy provides a detailed online sizing form. Using Manual J, the industry accepted standard for determining the exact amount of heating and cooling BTUs we provide you with a final requirement. Based on that requirement the correct size system can be selected. For example your house may need 36,780 BTUs of cooling and 79,456 BTUs of heating. The cooling BTUs result will also show you how much latent cooling and sensible cooling will be required. Latent cooling is the amount of cooling for removing moisture and sensible cooling is the amount of cooling required to lower the temperature to a desired indoor temperature when the outside temperature is at the highest load. The highest outdoor load or often referred to as the summer design temperature is specific to each region of the country. Then the energy losses are included which are a result of the size of the house, thermal efficiency from walls, ceilings and floors insulation as well as window sizes, types and location, doors, ceiling heights, square footage and other energy gains. These factors are then calculated to determine the final cooling loads. Heating loads are determined by the winter outdoor design temperature as well as the house energy efficiency factors to arrive at a final heating load. As you can see this is an involved process of calculations and when performed correctly will arrive at an accurate heating and cooling load.

What if I simply replace the system with the size system I presently have?

Since over 70% of existing systems are oversized the chances of arriving at an oversized system would be more likely. If you have also made changes to the house which have increased the thermal efficiency such as newer more efficient windows or doors or increased insulation, your house is more efficient and requires less heating and cooling. Selecting the system size based only on the present equipment capacities is a big mistake and your chances of having a successful installation are greatly diminished. The system size would be based on erroneous and obsolete information.

I have received several quotes from contractors and they all told me the same size system. So wouldn't I be safe using their recommendations?

The most difficult thing is to convince a homeowner their selection or the size selection made by several contractors is too large. Nobody wants a system that is not going to provide sufficient heating or cooling. Unless the contractors took measurements of the house and all the windows, doors etc. and performed an accurate Manual J calculation, their recommendations could and most probably are not accurate. It's very possible and happens all the time that a group of contractors in the same region are all using the same basic inaccurate rule of thumb to determine the size system they select. And the larger the system they can sell the more money they make. So if you want the system to be accurately sized, use our online sizing form. We use Manual J engineered and calculated sizing based on your local climate and your home's energy efficiency to determine the correct size and there's no guesswork. Although a contractor may defend their selection based on no customer complaining from insufficient heating or cooling, the fact that comfort levels are not what they could be and in the wake of that contractors path may be many prematurely failed systems which he has blamed on manufactures defects. If you are still not convinced go to the Department of Energy's website, HVAC industry websites as well as many HVAC manufacturers websites. They all warn homeowners about the abundant problem of system oversizing caused by contractors not taking the time to perform Manual J calculations. 

Why should I trust your calculations over a local contractors recommendations? You're located in another region of the country and you've never even seen my house. The contractors have been here and saw what my house looked like. Certainly they have a more accurate idea of what size system I need than DESCO Energy, don't they?

The results of our online sizing are guaranteed to be accurate. When you purchase the recommended size system we provide after completing our online sizing form, we guarantee the system will perform to provide the cooling and heating requirements of the design outside temperatures. No we don't select equipment sizing based on a possible nuclear winter or that one in a hundred year period of extreme heating or cooling. If we did the equipment would be grossly oversized the other 99 years. One of our technical support team members provides more sizing of systems in one month than the average contractor performs in their entire careers. In one year we provide thousands of systems both locally and online. With that volume we can't afford to be wrong. In 34 years of business we have never had one compliant filed against us through the Better Business Bureau or any other source. To be honest we have had four systems in our entire history of 34 years that were sized incorrectly. We replaced those systems at no cost to those customers. To tell you we never make mistakes would not be the truth or believable. We feel we're good but we're not perfect. However in the past 15 years we have not had one system that was sized incorrectly either by over or under sizing. This is a record we work hard at to maintain. Accuracy is the most important part of determining the size system you will require.

How do I go to your online sizing form?

Click Here and you will be directed to a new window with our online sizing form. After you submit the online sizing form information you will receive an email verifying the information was received and processed. You will also be requested to call our Technical Support Team for a review of the results. The review process allows an opportunity to review the results for clarification. We respect your privacy and we do not make phone calls as a result of submitting the sizing form. You decide when to call us at your convenience. We will not intrude your privacy!

How much of the HVAC installation can I perform myself?

In most instances a skilled do it yourselfer can perform about 95% of the installation. No homeowner should attempt to do the final start up and check out of the system. This phase of the installation needs to be performed by a licensed installer. A homeowner can install ducting, place equipment in their respective locations, perform electrical wiring runs for high and low voltage lines where permitted by law, run refrigerant lines, install humidifiers, air filters, mount boilers, pumps, install floor heating or baseboard heating. soft solder water lines, run Pex tubing, installing condensate lines, etc. What should be performed by a qualified experienced installer is final wiring hook ups for power wiring and low voltage controls such as thermostats, air handlers, furnaces boilers etc., refrigerant line brazing, evacuation and leak checking of refrigerant lines, adjusting and checking of refrigerant charge, adding refrigerant, leak checking gas lines, final connection of gas lines, inspection and final assembly of venting and intake for furnaces and any and all other items that may be required by local codes. DESCO Energy will never sell any system or equipment to any homeowner who has no intention of employing the use of a qualified experienced licensed technician to perform the final hook up and start up. If this is your ultimate goal you should note that we do not provide any warranty or technical support for any system that has not been installed as per our required warranty validation form. We realize no other seller even mentions this issue but it is in your best interest to follow the guidelines and requirements we have established. This assures you of a system that will provide many years of trouble free service and maximum comfort and energy savings. There is a serious extremely high degree of danger if equipment is not installed correctly. Such dangers as carbon monoxide poisoning, suffocation, fire, electrical shock, serious water damage, pipes freezing and busting, personal injury in all forms are risks you impose upon yourself and your family or other occupants needlessly and foolishly in order to save a few dollars. It is so foolish not to follow our recommended guidelines in the name of saving a little more money. Realize you have already saved thousand of dollars by doing most of the installation yourself. But to do a complete installation without using a technician voids the warranty, places your loved ones at high risk without their consent and in situations that do cause serious property and bodily harm, the insurance company many times will deny any claims because you were breaking the law. Yes realize it is against federal, state and local laws to install refrigerant lines and in most areas to hook up gas furnaces as a homeowner. When an insurance company has an opportunity to deny a claim legitimately they will do so. There is absolutely no homeowner who is sufficiently experienced in doing their own installation without the assistance of a qualified experienced technician to perform the final start up and check out. If you were you'd most likely be in this business. Competitors don't mention the risks or potential problems that can arise nor do they provide guidelines or requirements. Is it because they don't realize the risks involved or because they don't care? You be the judge.

 If you would like more details email us to request the Warranty Validation Form.

Do you provide a list of contractors in my area to do the final start up and installation?

First we recommend looking for a qualified installer. The installer is the technician working for the contractor. They are not required to be a licensed contractor and we strongly recommend looking for a technician rather than a contractor. Contractors have their own brands of equipment they want to sell you and are generally not interested in installing equipment purchased elsewhere. The technicians working for contractors are almost always eager to do side jobs and you save even more. It is a qualified technician of your choice, not ours. We refrain form recommending installers due to past problems of inconsistencies and performance. As well we have absolutely no control of the contractors or installers who sign up for the preferred installer list. We do not want to give the impression of endorsing any installer to which a customer may mistakably think came with our blessing and then turns out to be everybody's worst nightmare. The best way to find a qualified installer is to network through friends and family, ask for referrals at local supply houses or simply stop a service technician next time you see one and talk to them. By all means interview the installer carefully about the methods and procedures they use, their time frame and make certain they come insured so you are protected.  Most importantly get it in writing. For more information on how to locate a qualified installer see our website. EBay rules do not permit us to provide links to our website form any ad but doing a Google search for DESCO Energy and we'll be right there.

How do I know what parts of an installation I can perform and the installer needs to perform?

First in all areas of the country it is illegal for anyone to handle refrigerants that does not possess a license as issued by the Environmental Protection Agency. Secondly you do not have the tools and equipment to provide proper evacuation and to measure the correct refrigerant charge. Most importantly refrigerant lines are required to be brazed with a nitrogen purge, an operation that requires experienced skill levels and equipment. The typical homeowner regardless of skills is not prepared to have the correct tools or experience to perform these tasks successfully. Some misguided homeowners may attempt to soft solder refrigerant lines and use other unacceptable methods in an attempt to hook up their own system complete without the use of a qualified technician. Penny wise and pound foolish, they only cheat themselves out of longevity, efficient operation and warranty protection. DESCO Energy provides a warranty validation form that is required to be filled out by a qualified licensed technician of your choice. The form must be returned to us within 60 days of purchase of the system for warranty protection.

I also need a duct system design and might possibly need a duct system. Online sellers only provide equipment. What do I do to get a complete system?

DESCO Energy provides free duct sizing with a system purchase. We also will provide duct review of any existing system to verify if the present system is adequate for the size equipment required. And we also provide the most energy efficient fiberglass ducting system precut to your requirements. Check our other ads on eBay. DESCO Energy is the only online source providing the complete system including ducting.

How do I know which system is best for me? Natural gas, fuel oil, propane and now electric costs are skyrocketing. Which system is going to be the most cost effective and what energy is the best deal?

Natural gas prices will continue to fluctuate the same as oil prices have for years because every day we are importing more and more of our natural gas as our demand outstrips our supply. As with fuel oil you can expect a lowering of prices when you least need it and higher prices over the winter. Unlike fuel oil, natural gas can't be stored so as the prices fluctuate another factor will be certain. As demand increases so will costs. Some natural gas customers bombarded by natural gas increases made a mistake by switching to a heat pump system to only now see electric costs increase 50-78% in various regions across the country. Baltimore Gas and Electric recently raised prices 74% and further increases will be likely. Other providers in the mid Atlantic region are to follow suit as these providers generate power form fuel oil and natural gas. What needs to be understood that as fuel prices increase electric power derived from hose same fuels and even coal will also be increasing. As fuel users switch from one fuel to another the increased demand will inevitably cause price increases no matter what direction you turn.

Here are some basic guidelines. The most cost effective heating and cooling system is geothermal but the installation costs are enormous making this a poor payback - generally 15 to over 20 years. In most instances a geothermal system doesn't leave much room for the do it yourselfer. Only if you can get extremely creative it might be possible to cut those costs in less than half.

For comfort and cost effectiveness radiant floor heating or baseboard with proper zoning make hot water heating an excellent choice. But here again high installation costs make this system a 6 to 12 year payback depending on how much of the installation you perform. 

If you have natural gas consider a dual fuel system. A dual fuel system offers an excellent opportunity to reduce heating fuel costs another 20%. Dual fuel also adds protection against one energy source over another and provides choices. A dual fuel system is one that combines a fossil fuel furnace with a heat pump. The heat pump is most efficient between outdoor temperatures of 35 to 70 degrees. As the outdoor temperature falls the more efficient fossil fuel furnace operates. Most dual fuel systems provide an ultra efficient gas furnace with a heat pump. There are also fuel oil and propane furnaces in conjunction with a heat pump. Dual fuel systems cost slightly more than the fossil fuel furnace with air conditioning. However the cost difference provides a quick payback of less than one heating season by the lowered heating costs.

How much can I reasonably expect to save by making a heating and air conditioning system a Do It Yourself project?

The skilled homeowner who anticipates he can do the maximum amount of the installation as permitted by codes and laws and can perform 95% of the installation can expect to save 70% off the price of a contractor quoted installation. Further the average homeowner tells us they saved at least 50% off their energy costs. Taking a typical installation or replacement that is contractor quoted at $7,000 and with annual energy consumption at $3,400, the skilled do it yourselfer will save $4,900 for the installation and $1,700 in energy costs. That is a grand total savings of $6,600. In this equation the homeowner paid DESCO Energy $2,100 for the equipment and saved $6,600 for a payback of period of less than 4 months. Looking at this same investment strictly from a payback versus energy costs saved the homeowner will see a 15 month payback. So no matter how you do the math, there is no better payback you will find on any investment such as you're heating and cooling system.

Looking at the homeowner who isn't proficient at do it yourself projects and elects to only do the bare minimum which in most equations this amounts to 30% saved off of a contractor quoted price or as in the above example 30% of $7,000 or $2,100. This no so proficient homeowner will still enjoy the same energy savings as above or  $1,700. This homeowner will see a total savings including contractor savings and energy of $3,800. He paid DESCO Energy $2,100 and the installer $2,800 for a total investment of $4,900. His savings will be $2,100 for the installation and $1,700 in energy costs for a total first year savings of $3,900 from an investment of $4,900 or a payback period of 15 months or 1 year and 3 months. From an energy savings comparison only of $1,700 from an investment of $4,900 his payback will be 35 months or slightly less than 3 years.

In review of our homeowner who only uses contractors and has no involvement the payback based on energy savings would be $7,000 against $1,700 annual energy costs for a payback period of 4 years and 1 month.

The information provided above is a result of surveys we performed from customers and their results. Naturally the more you do the more you save and the savings are significant. Most homeowners would like to upgrade their heating and cooling systems but with the average investment showing only 4 to 7 years payback, it isn't cost effective. But when a homeowner sees a payback of two years or less then that investment becomes worthwhile. And as energy costs continue to skyrocket, the investment becomes even more significant. Remember the best investment you can make isn't on Wall Street, it's on your street in your heating and cooling system. Where else could you make an investment that guarantees a return of two years or less and continues to pay dividends of 25% thereafter? As energy costs increase your investment continues to provide even greater returns. If any homeowner was given that type of investment opportunity they would be lined up around the nation. For over 80% of homeowners this same investment opportunity exists right in your house today.

Speaking of investments what are these tax credits all about?

The new energy tax credit bill provides for tax credits or rebates to homeowners primary residences as an incentive to improve the efficiency of your home. Included is insulation, windows and of course heating and cooling equipment. The other improvements such as windows and insulation are based on a percentage of the cost. Heating and cooling systems are based on a flat amount. Furnaces with 95% or higher efficiencies receive a $150 tax credit. Variable speed fan blowers receive a $50 tax credit. Split cooling systems and heat pumps of 15 Seer or Heat Pumps with 9 HSPF and a 12.5 EER are eligible for a $300 tax credit. Packaged heat pumps and cooling systems of 14 Seer and 12 EER are also eligible for a $300 tax credit. A tax credit is more valuable than a deduction in that the credit is matched dollar for dollar while a deduction is only a percentage of the given amount. To be legible for the tax credits the system and matched components must all be ARI certified and rated. There are numerous misleading ads out there where an advertiser exaggerated the efficiency ratings to promote a sale and there is no official rating of the system so there won't be a tax credit either. These sellers who proclaim honesty know what are the worst offenders offering 93% furnaces and plagiarizing manufacturers specifications to 96% or 15 Seer systems that aren't even rated or have no ARI match up. The only thing we can figure out is these sellers probably don't plan on being around next year when their customers go to file their income taxes and find out to their dismay the system they purchased isn't eligible for any tax credit.

I'm building a new house. Where should I begin?

New home construction is an excellent opportunity to provide the most energy efficient system. When new homeowners purchase a new home from a builder they are getting the cheapest builder grade low end model installed at the lowest possible price.

\The average homeowner will focus on the color the kitchen cabinets and spend their entire focus on selecting the proper cabinets, etc. Then when it comes to the item that will consume the largest part of their monthly budget, their heating and cooling system, the only question they may ask is the name of  the manufacturer. With little or no regard for the efficiency or features of the system they think that because it is a name brand they recognize that it is dependable and efficient. Nothing could be further form the truth. If a homeowner realized how little the builder pays the installer and that the system selected was the lowest and cheapest model they could purchase and still keep it a name brand, homeowners wouldn't have to wait until their first heating season to realize they got exactly what they paid for.

What about the warranties? How can you provide warranty protection when we are located in another state from DESCO Energy? Goodman states there is no warranty on products ordered over the internet. How then do we have warranty protection?

First it is extremely important to understand how warranties are handled on do it yourself installations versus contractor installations. When you have a contractor perform your installation it is the responsibility of that contractor to provide the warranty service and support after the sale. The manufacturer provides warranty support to the contractor who in turn provides warranty support to the homeowner. The manufacturer does not provide warranty support directly to the homeowner. The only time a manufacturer may get involved is when the contractor fails to properly service the equipment via the terms of the warranty because the contractor is no longer in business, is incompetent, can't fix the problem or fails to respond. In these circumstances the manufacturer may elect to contact their distributor in the area to locate another dealer or have their field representative provide the warranty support. Unless the homeowner purchased a labor contract from the manufacturer the only obligation the manufacturer will have is to provide warranty parts. 

When you purchase a system online you are acting as your own contractor. To purchase at wholesale you do not have the same warranty support you may have if you had a contractor perform the installation. You as the contractor must realize there is no longer free labor support. You will receive the equivalent warranty from DESCO Energy that a contractor receives from DESCO Energy or any other Goodman distributor. We will provide warranty coverage for parts as shown in the manufacturer's warranty. However because we provide certain coverage that extends beyond the manufacturers standard warranties it is not correct for us to say the warranty protection we provide is the standard manufacturers warranty because in most instances the warranty protection we provide is more than the manufacturer's standard warranty. For example on the Goodman 14 Seer heat pumps and air conditioning systems the standard factory warranty is only 10 years parts including the compressor. But DESCO Energy provides an extended Goodman warranty that includes a 20 year compressor warranty.

On all equipment the warranty protection and coverage is the responsibility of DESCO Energy. Goodman as well as all other HVAC manufacturers do not provide any warranty coverage direct to any homeowner. DESCO Energy will always be your source for warranty coverage for the entire life of the warranty. Any parts needed to be replaced under the terms of the warranty must be returned to DESCO Energy. Replacements parts are sent immediately for any request and must be prepaid including shipping. Shipping of new replacement parts and their return to us shall be the responsibility of the homeowner or end user. In warranties where the entire unit shall be replaced as a result of any heat exchanger failures, the cost to return the item, labor to replace and the cost to ship the new replacement furnace shall be the responsibility of the homeowner or purchaser. Lifetime warranties are only applicable to first time purchaser and are non transferable. Lifetime warranties revert to 20 year coverage for secondary transfer to other parties.

To receive any warranty or technical support it is important that you realize that without following our guidelines and completion and return of the warranty validation form is the only way we will supply warranty coverage and technical support. Failure to follow the required guidelines outlines in our warranty validation form and/or failure to return the warranty validation form will automatically result in voiding the factory warranty and any extended warranty protection we provide. Warranty validation forms must be returned within 90 days of date of purchase of the equipment. Extensions can be granted if the request is provided in writing.

Because we provide coverage beyond the factory warranties and because labor allowances are granted in specific situations the warranty coverage is more than the factory warranty and is therefore the sole responsibility of this seller, DESCO Energy. At no time shall the warranty coverage offered for all products we provide be less than the equivalent Goodman factory warranty.

How is my system shipped?

All small item orders such as thermostats, humidifiers, air filters or single small component orders are shipped UPS. However if your order is for a complete system and small ancillary items, they shall all be packed together and sent through our carrier - ABF. Our common carrier ABF, also referred to as a trucking company has shipping terminals located throughout the United States. The most economical means of shipping any system is to the terminal closest to you for your pick up. Shipping costs can range anywhere from $118 to $300 on average depending on your location and the items being shipped. For example furnaces and boilers are less expensive to ship than air conditioning or heat pumps. This has to do with the classification of the item's) being shipped.  

We have negotiated our contract with the shipper for a 70% discount to most locations. The shipping costs are always paid to ABF direct and not to DESCO Energy when you pick up your shipment at the terminal or if you elect to have home delivery. You do not pay any penalty for freight collect charges and only the exact amount of discounted shipping costs.

Most items we advertise are in stock at our warehouse. With shipping times you can estimate any order will take about a week or more for delivery again depending on your location.

In the shipping of any item(s) it is the responsibility of the customer to inspect all items before signing the receipt from the shipper. It is very important to open all boxes and packages and inspect for hidden damages because you cannot go back and claim damages once you have signed. To settle a claim with any carrier can take up to 60 days and as with any damage claim can be quite time consuming. DESCO Energy does offer a $40 insurance claim policy. In the event your shipment should arrive damaged you will immediately notify the shipper as well as DESCO Energy and make note of such damage on the receipt. If the entire shipment is damaged, refuse the entire shipment. If only part of the shipment is damaged or if the damage is slight, take the items that are satisfactory and reject those that aren't. For slight damage simply make note of the damage and accept the order. If you purchase the insurance we will then settle the claim with you within 7 days and go back on your behalf and file a damage claim with the shipper. However note that at no time does our policy or the shippers cover hidden damages. For this reason it is extremely important to inspect all items before signing for them.  Rarely do we ever have shipping damage and if you check our feedback customers comment about how well our shipping department packs their orders. Over the years we have learned how to pack to avoid most shipping damage. For this reason it is rare to have a shipping damage claim. But if you purchase the additional insurance and have a problem you'll be glad you did.

If you live in the Mid Atlantic region you may also choose to pick up your equipment. All systems such as furnaces, heat pumps boilers, air conditioners receive a $25 discount when you pick up at our warehouse.

An HVAC system is a major investment. I want to be certain I'm getting the best value for my money and my purchase is from a reputable source. Why should I purchase from DESCO Energy and what makes them any different than other online sources?

This is the most important question any homeowner could ask. There are a lot of ads on the internet all proclaiming to be the biggest, best, honest, cheapest, etc. These nebulous statements made without facts to back it up have no effect on the typical do it yourself homeowners who are far more sophisticated to be influenced by this type of MTV marketing. 

DESCO Energy offers you may things to be assured you are making your selection and purchase from a reputable company. First and foremost we are a Member in Excellent Standing with the Better Business Bureau both online and locally. We stand by and practice the policies of the Better Business Bureau so you can be assured your purchase is safe.

If for any reason we do not do or provide those services and items as described in our ads you have the additional BuySafe protection bond that will step in if required to make it right. Obtaining BuySafe protection requires rigorous and detailed financial and credibility in the industry to which we are involved.  The BuySafe standards are very high and involved. Every business using the BuySafe protection seal has been verified and met high standards for financial health, stability, longevity and customer satisfaction. 

DESCO has over 34 years in the Heating and Air Conditioning Business. We have provided thousands of successful heating and air conditioning systems to homeowners, business and industries over the course of our history in every part of the nation as well as Canada. In that time frame not one customer has ever had to file a complaint with any outside agency. In other words we have 100% track record in 34 years.

All our technical support team is NATE certified. NATE is the leading source of training and testing for the air conditioning industry. We have a full staff of 5 highly trained technical support members at your service to assist you with questions, size your system, provide ducting layouts, select the most efficient system for you, provide floor radiant heat layouts, etc. Their cumulative experience is over 100 years of HVAC experience. One of our technical support team members will size more systems in a month than a typical HVAC contractor will do in their entire careers. At that rate we can't afford to be wrong.

To our knowledge we are the only Goodman source for products that is an A+ Dealer which can be verified on Goodman's website and through Goodman customer care.

DESCO Energy is the only source on eBay that details and explains factory warranties and their procedures in writing.

Is DESCO Energy the biggest online advertiser of HVAC equipment and systems? Our competition certainly thinks we are but we have no idea or how that could be verified. Since we don't request or apply any pressure to our customers on eBay to provide feedback, the feedback represents only a small fraction of those who have made purchases. Naturally we would prejudicially think we are the best. But again that is an opinion reserved for every customer and their specific experience, not ours. We are a gold level power seller with 100% feedback on eBay and in 34 years the Better Business Bureau has never received one dispute or complaint from any of our customers.

So how does DESCO Energy stand up against their competition?

First we have never found one other competitor listed on Goodman's website nor having any direct affiliation with Goodman. No other eBay power seller of HVAC equipment has a 100% feedback rating. No other power seller is NATE certified or provides BuySafe Bonding. In order to provide BuySafe bonding a seller must authenticate their financial status and soundness as well as their industry affiliations and status within the industry. A seller of Goodman HVAC equipment who has no direct affiliation with Goodman or the products they advertise can't become bonded. No other power seller of HVAC equipment is listed in any membership with the Better Business Bureau. Let us repeat this statement: No other eBay advertiser of HVAC equipment is a Member of the Better Business Bureau. No other power seller has a 100% record with the Better Business Bureau with no complaints filed against them. In other words those sellers who are not members of the Better Business Bureau have had actions filed against them by disgruntled customers. Obviously the sellers forced their customers to file action against them through the Better Business Bureau to obtain resolution because the seller wouldn't do it on their own.

Every past and potential customer lists membership in the Better Business Bureau as the first and most important factor when making a decision about making a purchase. The second most important factors were a tie with the BuySafe bonding and our direct affiliation with Goodman as an A+ Dealer. After they made a purchase we asked our customers what was the single most important reason why you purchased from DESCO Energy instead of a competitor. Almost unanimously the response was from the service and knowledge provided by our technical support team. Price was usually the third most important reason.  And our competition still tries to impress with unsubstantiated claims using words such as biggest, most honest and cheapest. Any homeowner sophisticated and knowledgeable enough to install their own HVAC system is far more advanced than the average person and thinks outside the Box. You deal in facts and want information that is useful to you. Reading this ad indicates you are that homeowner who thinks far beyond the average homeowner. You're serious about saving energy and you are also looking to have the best system your budget allows. On average you will perform a better installation that rivals most contractor installations. Unlike a contractor you'll take the time to do it right and read the directions first. You're on a learning curve and you're need is for information that will get the project completed with the least amount of stress. You also realize  this isn't only about saving money. It is about increasing comfort and providing a system that will be of optimum performance for many years without failure.

Also important is to realize you are purchasing from a source that is directly affiliated with the manufacturer that has a long solid positive history with it's customers and can provide useful information and support when required. You know that ads with terms such as biggest, most honest and cheapest are not impressive and aren't useful. Certainly you want the best pricing but you also need a whole lot more. With manufacturers all stating they do not provide warranty support to homeowners for items ordered over the internet and realizing that warranty support has to come from the seller it is vitally important that source knows everything about selecting, sizing, installation and technical support and is going to be around for many years to come should the need for warranty or technical support arise in the distant future.

Unfortunately there are online advertisers promoting HVAC systems as though they were the same as a major household appliance and requiring little or no valid support in the future. By their lack of clarity on warranty and technical support they leave the impression that selling an HVAC system will be supported by the manufacturer directly. It is important to understand that no HVAC manufacturer will support any warranty directly to a homeowner regardless of from whom, where or how the purchase was made. In the case of extended warranty protection as provided by DESCO Energy it is important to understand first and foremost these warranties are supported by DESCO Energy and not the manufacturer. 

So how does DESCO Energy compare to the competition? With 100% record and a Member in Good Standing with the Better Business Bureau, $25,000 BuySafe protection for every online transaction, 34 Years in the HVAC Business, over 100 years of knowledge base from our NATE Certified Technical Support Team, Real Brick and Mortar Operation with offices, training center, and multiple warehouses of over 35,000 square feet, Inventory In Stock on Premises, Goodman A+ Dealer verified on Goodman's website, Stocking 5 major HVAC manufacturers including York, Tappan, Goodman, Fedders and Gibson and 2 boiler manufacturers, plus much more inventory from other major HVAC manufacturers, a complete fiberglass duct fabrication shop, a comprehensive and detailed website designed solely to technically assist the homeowner do it yourselfer, thousands of successful HVAC homeowner and business installations,  and a staff that is ready to assist you to help your success in installing your own HVAC system.

Okay so you didn't find another seller that compared on anything close to our level. We'll then offer $150 off any furnace, heat pump, boiler or air conditioning system if you can find any other seller that is a Member in Good Standing with the Better Business Bureau with no complaints filed against them, listed on Goodman's website as a dealer or distributor, has 15 years in the HVAC business, provides bonding by BuySafe and is licensed to sell and install HVAC equipment in their area of the country.

We'll also offer a $25 discount if you can find a competitor that advertises they are an Authorized Goodman Distributor but provides no evidence of verification and has absolutely no listing on Goodman's website and is not affiliated with Goodman.

The point to this is it's wise not to take chances. The real honesty lies in the ads. If a seller isn't forthright and honest in their ads, it will only get worse, not better. What we state in our ads can be verified by every source we refer to. 

DESCO Energy continually works at providing you useful information. We don't want you to think of us as the biggest but we do want to be the best for you. First we want you to find us as the most useful HVAC resource on the internet.  And the best priced best value source on the internet to make your HVAC purchase with confidence.

How does Goodman stand up against the competition?

Goodman is incredibly now the largest brand of residential heating and cooling in the nation. Goodman started out 26 years ago by Harold Goodman purchasing other heating and air conditioning companies. Goodman's most recent purchase 6 years ago was Amana. And last year Goodman went from the largest privately held HVAC manufacturer to a public company.

The changes made both in technology of manufacturing and products has put Goodman at the forefront of the HVAC industry. Although Goodman is not the most known brand to homeowners, they have gained their market share by marketing to their contractor base. It was a back door approach that has written a new chapter on how a new emerging manufacturer can gain major market share in an age old industry dominated by long standing and established companies. Gaining second place market share without spending incredible sums of money on marketing. It would have been impossible for Goodman to gain the market share they have today employing the standard advertising against other more well known manufacturers. How did they do it? By marketing directly to the HVAC contractors with a quality product line at a great price with the strongest warranties in the industry, Goodman has made themselves a brand that today other major manufacturers fear and work diligently to compete against.

The acquisition of the Amana line has brought to the homeowner a remarkable hi tech product line that other manufacturers can't match both in terms of technology, warranty and price. For example the new heat pumps are built better, have higher efficiencies and have been the best price on the market. In particular is a new modular variable speed air handler which has also been added to this year's product line.

For natural gas users the new GMV95 gas furnace with 2 stages and variable speed has all the latest features for maximum comfort, energy savings and a price that can't be touched by competitors.  The GMV95 is eligible for a $200 tax credit plus having such advanced features as intelligent igniter technology and auto comfort mode. Most other major manufacturers do not have a competing 95% or higher furnace that is eligible for the energy tax credit rebate, yet also provide all the other energy and comfort enhancing features. As though that wasn't enough there is also a ten year total replacement warranty of the entire furnace in the event of a heat exchanger failure, lifetime heat exchanger warranty and five years on all other parts. The new GMV95 furnace comes at a price which costs less than most other major manufacturers charge for their lowest efficiency furnaces with no extra features. Their builder model furnaces have low efficiency furnaces with no variable speed and no other energy and comfort features and a shorter warranty. And some the leading known brand name manufacturers are still using clam shell heat exchangers instead of the longer lasting more efficient tubular heat exchanger technology which is used in all Goodman furnaces.

And now in this ad Goodman introduces their new two stage 95% furnaces, the GMH95 series which sells for about the same price as Goodman's previous GMS95 furnaces which was only single stage.

Originally Goodman was known for many years as the leader in lower priced base line equipment without any frills or features. Today Goodman has shown homeowners and the entire industry they can also produce the high end systems with more features and technology than any other leading manufacturer at a price that can't be touched. So if you ever think Goodman's prices are high, take a look at the others and you'll soon appreciate what Goodman offers in technology, comfort, price and warranty. 

If the terms two stage, variable speed, auto comfort mode, igniter technology, etc. seem foreign to you, we recommend visiting DESCO Energy's new more comprehensive website where these features are explained in complete detail. There you will not only learn what the features do but the incredible changes they provide in your comfort levels and energy consumption.

Dual Fuel

What is it and why would I want to use it?

Have a gas furnace? With Air Conditioning? A Dual Fuel System is perfect for you. It is the most efficient system available today with the best payback. Between outdoor temperatures of 35 to 70 degrees there is nothing more efficient for heating than a heat pump. Less than 1/2 the cost of heating with an ultra efficient gas furnace, the heat pump will efficiently provide ample heating in the moderate winter days. Looking at a weather chart you will have the majority of winter hours in the moderate temperature range for most parts of the country. When the outdoor temperature falls below 35 degrees the ultra efficient gas furnace will operate while the heat pump is off. Costing only slightly more than the equivalent system with air conditioning only, the dual fuel system pays for itself in about two winter months of operation. And keeps on saving energy while you gain maximum comfort levels. In addition you have ultra efficient air conditioning. There is no way to stop the escalating energy costs and especially those for natural gas but there are solutions to reduce your energy consumption.

Compare this system cost to a contractor installation and you will literally save thousands of dollars both in contractor costs and energy savings. Typically a Do It Yourself project for HVAC will save 70% off of a contractor installation while increasing energy efficiency. Most homeowners realize they can only afford the builder's models when shopping for a replacement HVAC system from a contractor. And usually they wait until the system fails to determine they need a replacement. Skyrocketing energy costs are sufficient reason to consider replacing your present heating and air conditioning system. Regardless of your Do It Yourself skills you can save form 30 to 70% of a contractor quoted installation. From simply purchasing the correct size system and having a licensed technician do the installation to doing most of the installation and then having a licensed technician only perform the final hook up and start up you will save substantially.

Why did we recommend a humidifier?

All areas that require heat benefit from a humidifier. "But I live in the South and it's humid here. Why would I ever need a humidifier?" When you talk about humidity levels it is always referred to as relative humidity. The humidity level is relative to the temperature. A 30 degree day with 70% relative humidity will provide 15% relative humidity when that same air is heated to 74 degrees. Low humidity is a perfect breeding ground for viruses, colds and respiratory infections. Low humidity also makes you feel cold as any air that passes over your skin feels cold as the drier air evaporates moisture form your skin rapidly. Low humidity dries out wood, antiques, musical instruments and other important items in your house such as the construction materials as well. Low humidity produces high amounts of static electricity which shocks and can also cause failure of electronic equipment as well. No other single device in your heating and air conditioning system can provide as many benefits at such a low cost as a humidifier. Most importantly a humidifier increases comfort, significantly reduces respiratory infections and saves energy by allowing decreased temperature settings with an increased comfort level.

Sizing

Once you've determined the type of system and fuel you'll be using the next item is the size or capacity, efficiency and features.

To determine the correct size system you'll need to look at many factors such as the type, size and construction and direction of walls, windows, roof and location and direction. All these factors and more determine what size system you need to install.

First we need to deprogram all the misleading information you've been told about sizing an HVAC system correctly. Please note there are only two methods of correctly sizing an HVAC system. The right way using Manual J as a basis and the wrong way.

Most likely the method you have learned one of the following wrong ways; The contractor told me this was the right size. I had several estimates and all the contractors told me this size. I used one of those charts that show you how many square feet per ton. My neighbor's house is this size and that's the size system they have. And on and on... Too many HVAC contractors are notorious for using rules of thumb for too many applications. Why? It's quicker and easier to use a Rule of Thumb.

The problem with these sizing methods is they cause you to purchase a system that will more often be too large. So what's wrong with a larger system? After all it's a common American belief when a little is good then more is even better, right? Of all the wrong decisions that can be made about an HVAC system selecting an oversized system is the worst. Bigger is not always better! Here's Why? First and most importantly the larger system will fail prematurely and the comfort level will be less than desirable. If it's an air conditioning system the cooling won't run long enough to properly dehumidify the air. The comfort result is a house that's cold but clammy.  The hidden result is a compressor that short cycles. The compressor fails long before it normally would have if the system was sized correctly. Note that short operating cycles destroy HVAC equipment and decrease comfort. Why install a larger system that costs more initially when a smaller system will give you the effective results you need? Contractors do this because it's safe. Homeowners are usually unaware of the problem because the destruction goes on unnoticed to the untrained eyes and ears. Homeowners and contractors in our field are installing a system that won't provide sufficient heat or cooling. However this problem rarely ever happens.

A furnace that is oversized produces short cycles of hot blasts of air instead of warm air. Again short cycles will destroy any HVAC equipment prematurely. A normal operating cycle will last anywhere from 12 to 15 minutes or more. Shorter operating cycles prohibit the unit from obtaining normal operating temperatures and result in the system never obtaining operating efficiency. Much the same as your automobile that is only operated for short periods of time, the engine never gets warm enough to operate at the maximum efficiency levels and the net result is higher gasoline usage and short life cycle. Remember that a heating system has to obtain very high temperatures in the heat exchanger as a result of the burning gas. During this process there is a tremendous strain the heat exchanger as the system expands due to the increasing temperatures and stress on the motors due to starting torques required. Constant starting torques on the motors and continual expansion and contraction of the materials result in a premature failure. These are hidden effects that you don't see or notice until the repair bill comes or the furnace fails completely beyond reasonable repair. What you will notice is the discomfort associated with oversized equipment. Instead of a more balanced temperature the result is hot blasts of air and wider temperature fluctuations resulting in larger temperature swings. Many homeowners assume this is simply normal and become accustomed to this type of operation.

Oversizing of equipment is such a chronic problem that it has become epidemic. In fact the problem has become so severe the US Department of Energy has published many articles and warnings about the problem to you the consumer. Oversizing of equipment is the single biggest problem of premature equipment failures in the HVAC industry. Why does this problem proliferate in the HVAC industry? An HVAC contractor and a homeowner's worst fear in selecting an HVAC system is that it won't heat or cool sufficiently. Having no experience or confidence in our industry's accepted design and engineering standards such as Manual J,  results in a guess. To be safe the guess will always be on the extremely large system. The end result is a system that is not only uncomfortable, but also an Energy Hog! 

There is remedy to this problem. At DESCO we're putting an end to the epidemic oversizing of HVAC systems for you to help you avoid premature equipment failure, increase comfort levels and increase energy savings and less initial cost as well. DESCO will at no charge size your HVAC system accurately with guaranteed sizing results.

Simply Click Here to go to our online sizing form.

Fill out the requested information and then push the submit button. You will the receive an email indicating the information was received and the results are ready for you. Our technical staff will review those results with you to be certain all information is correct. Most importantly there is no charge for this service. You can then be assured you know the correct size heating and cooling system for your house based not on guess but real engineering standards. Our HVAC computer sizing is Manual J as the basis. Manual J is the form and method recognized as the correct engineering method to determine correct sizing of any residential structure. In addition to this software we have added other limits and calculations in addition to the Manual J program. These additions limitations for ventilation for extremely efficient tight construction such as ICF. Are we accurate? In one month each technical associate in our company will size more systems than the average contractor will size in his entire career. Our software system is one of two that has been accepted and recognized by most governing agencies in our industry including the US Dept. Of Energy. After 34 years and with the volume of equipment we sell we can't afford to be wrong.

Our sizing takes into consideration all effects of your house including geographic location, your climate data for your specific region, the construction of your house and the insulating efficiencies of all walls and windows. We can also tell you the effect of adding more insulation or increasing the efficiency of the windows and the effect this will have on the size of the HVAC system.

We realize we provide redundant information on the importance of correct sizing intentionally to stress to you the importance of this issue.

For new construction we strongly recommend in addition sending us the plans for the house either via a sketch that is faxed to 717-846-3880 or emailed to info@descoenergy.com. You can also mail a copy to us direct at Technical Sales Dept.  DESCO, 26 N. State St., York, Pa. 17403 All drawings should include floor plans, elevation view and direct of either North, South, East or West. Drawings do not have to be to scale. If you wish to do a computer layout there are free downloads of programs on the internet. Attachments should be in standard office format such as pdf. jpeg, gif or wrks. Our virus protection many times will not scan cad drawings effectively. In the event of improper scanning the firewall may delete the attachment or email. We recommend converting all cad formats to standard formats such as dwg or office formats.

We provide this sizing service to you at no charge. If you want a room by room printed analysis, we do have a service charge for this. However in the case of in floor radiant heat we will as necessity requires provide a room by room analysis for estimating purposes. We do not provide the individual room results or analysis unless there is a purchase of a system.    

After Sizing comes the Duct System

If you're looking to replace or install a forced air system using a blower to circulate the air the most important ingredient is the duct system. We provide a complete detailed download article about duct sizing on our web site. Links to this article and other valuable information are located at our eBay store education section at the beginning of this ad.

The most common mistake is the oversight of the importance of the duct system which distributes the air throughout the house. Finding detailed information about proper design and installation of a duct system is difficult.. Without a properly designed duct system you may end up with the worst nightmare you could imagine. A properly designed duct system will provide even comfort and temperature throughout every area of the house. The duct system is a major factor in determining how long the equipment survives. Proper air flow is critical for performance and efficiency. Remember there is no substitute for a properly designed and installed duct system. The blower or fan in an HVAC system is only capable of forcing so much air through a certain size duct. The most common concept and mistake made by many contractors and homeowners is attempting to increase the size of the equipment to compensate for a poorly designed duct system and the associated discomfort it provides. The only remedy for this problem is to correct the design of the duct system. Each system size needs to have a minimum air flow rated in cfm or cubic feet per minute of air. If the main equipment does not have the correct amount of air flow the net result will be discomfort and premature failure of the equipment. In the case of heat pumps where air flow is extremely critical there has to be a minimum air flow of 380 cfm per ton. 400 cfm per ton is the ideal mark. Anything less than this minimum will result in poor performance and compressor failure. Even though the warranties sometimes provide lifetime protection, the warranties are void when the compressor fails as a result of improper air flow. If you receive the compressor at no cost, the cost to replace the compressor isn't cheap. Besides who wants a system where the compressor has to be changed frequently?

The two major problems in our industry are oversized equipment and undersized duct systems. This is a perfect recipe for premature failure and inefficiency. To compound problems even further the new variable speed blowers will surge when applied against a duct system that is inadequate. This surging is a result of the sensor on the blower seeking to maintain a constant air flow. An undersized duct system creates too much resistance to the blower. The resultant blower surging will absolutely drive someone crazy. Imagine the blower going from full capacity to minimum continually in a matter of seconds. This condition is easily remedied by having a properly designed duct system. 

Pay attention to the duct system. Even if you're replacing an existing system, don't assume the duct system has been designed or installed correctly. At DESCO we will review the duct system to be certain it is sized correctly with enough air outlets and return inlets. If this is a new installation we'll size the duct system for you. If this is a replacement system we will review the duct system as well.  We want to make certain all the systems we sell provide maximum efficient, comfort and longevity.

In addition to analyzing your duct system DESCO also provides the best duct materials available. We will precut fiberglass duct board for you to make your HVAC installation the most efficient and quiet possible. Fiberglass duct board is mildew resistant and easily constructed in a matter of seconds. Unlike unforgiving expensive sheet metal with sharp edges that require tin snips to cut and adjust, fiberduct can be cut with a large razor knife. Plus fiberduct Tough Guard is already well insulated and is perfect for attic and crawl space applications. At DESCO we can design and ship a duct system with any equipment order like an erector set ready for your assembly when it arrives.
