AC Features & Benefits: Variable-Speed & Two-Stage Cooling | Bryant Heating & Cooling
A dirty air conditioner doesn't run as smoothly as a clean one — it has to work harder to give you the same comfort, and that costs you on your electric bill. Some AC problems can double operating cost without improving comfort at all. In fact, just 1/100th of an inch of dirt or film on an evaporator coil can cut its efficiency by 5%. Keeping your system clean and well-maintained is one of the simplest ways to control cooling costs.
Features that save you money on newer equipment
If you're shopping for a new system, a few features on today's cooling equipment are worth understanding — they pay you back in lower bills and better comfort.
Variable-speed outdoor fan motor
A variable-speed outdoor fan motor lets the system run longer at lower speeds instead of constantly cycling on and off at full blast. That steadier operation lowers electric bills and noticeably reduces noise.
Two-stage cooling
Two-stage cooling runs on a lower, efficient setting most of the time, then steps up to full power only on the hottest, most humid days. The result is lower energy bills and more consistent comfort — fewer temperature swings, less humidity.
