The Truth About Air Conditioner Sizing

When it comes to air conditioning, many homeowners believe that bigger is always better. At PROTOCOOL Cooling Solutions, we often encounter this misconception, and today we’re here to set the record straight.

The Myth: Larger AC Units Provide Superior Cooling

It’s a common belief that installing a larger air conditioning unit will result in:

• Faster cooling
• More efficient temperature control
• Better overall performance

The Reality: Size Matters, But Bigger Isn’t Always Better

PROTOCOOL Cooling Solutions experts know that an oversized AC unit can actually lead to several problems:

1. Short cycling: The unit cools too quickly and turns off before properly dehumidifying the air.
2. Energy inefficiency: Frequent on-off cycles consume more energy than steady operation.
3. Reduced comfort: Inconsistent temperatures and higher humidity levels.
4. Increased wear and tear: Shorter lifespan due to frequent starting and stopping.
