Your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boehmerheating.com\/air-conditioning\">air conditioner<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0water heater and ventilation system all need access to the central power line. So what does that mean for your system and what problems should be you beware of?<\/p>\n<h3>How Your HVAC System Uses Electricity<\/h3>\n<p>How your HVAC system works depends largely on which components need electricity to operate. Here is a quick summary of how each system uses electricity:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Air Conditioning &#8211; Most air conditioners are electric and therefore use electricity based on the number of BTUs produced. For example, if your air conditioner produces 25,000 BTUs and has a SEER of 16, it can produce 16 BTUs for every watt of electricity consumed per hour. As a result, it consumes 1,562.5 watts per hour when the system is running at maximum capacity. If it runs at full capacity for 8 hours per day, 30 days a month in the summer, that\u2019s 375 kilowatt hours \u2013 which is the measurement unit you\u2019ll see on your electric bill.<\/li>\n<li>Ventilation \u2013 Your ventilation system is almost always going to use electricity to circulate and filter air. While mechanical filters rely on the movement of air to remove certain particles, ventilation systems have a variety of components including fans and possibly even condenser coils to conserve energy as air is exchanged between the inside and outside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Electricity plays an important role in your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boehmerheating.com\/air-conditioning\/air-conditioning-system-maintenance\">McKeesport\u00a0HVAC system<\/a> no matter how your system works.
