Cooling Systems

cooling system

Nashoba Air & BoilerWorks installs a full line of cooling systems, ranging in SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) from 13 to 21. We typically install 16 SEER in the Nashoba Valley Region.

Acadia Cooling System

Are you tired of paying oil or gas bills? Eliminate fossil fuels by installing an Acadia system. The Acadia is the first air-source heat pump that can operate with efficiencies similar to a geothermal system without the need for trenching, digging or drilling in the yard. The Acadia is powered by electricity and the air is distributed through ductwork. Because this is a dual-compressor system, it consumes less electricity than most heating and cooling units and it does not require oil or gas. This operation will save you money and keep you comfortable all year round.

Hybrid Cooling Systems

What is a "Hybrid" System? Well, it's just like a hybrid car that uses both gasoline and electricity. A Hybrid System uses a combination of electricity and either oil or LP for heat. The source is a heat pump. It looks just like the outdoor unit of an air conditioner. The term heat pump is not a good one because it actually heats and cools. Yes, you get air conditioning all built into one system!

Central Air Conditioning

The most common central cooling system is a split system, which includes an outdoor cabinet containing a condenser coil and compressor, and an indoor evaporator coil, usually installed in conjunction with your furnace or air handler. The compressor pumps a chemical called refrigerant through the system.

"We love our new heating and cooling system."

—Janet & Mike

Once warm air inside your home blows across the indoor evaporator coil, its heat energy transfers to the refrigerant inside the coil. That transfer, in turn, cools the air. The refrigerant is pumped back to the compressor where the cycle begins again. The heat absorbed by the refrigerant is moved outside your home while cooled air is blown inside. Moisture that contributes to humidity is also condensed out of the air.

 

Your cooling system is usually combined with your central heating system because they share the same ductwork for distributing conditioned air throughout your home.

Ductless Air Conditioning

If you have a boiler and are looking for a way to cool your home, ductless air conditioning may be the perfect solution. A ductless air conditioner, often referred to as a minisplit, is a cost-effective, attractive way to control indoor climate. Ductless air conditioning systems are particularly beneficial as the condenser (housing the motor, etc) is installed outside the building, ensuring quiet operation inside, while a slick indoor unit is installed on a wall inside. A remotely wired or hand-held controller provides flexible operation relating to time programs, room temperatures and more.

High-velocity Air Systems

If you need to cool an older home or a home with radiant heat, a high-velocity air system may be your solution. The system distributes high-velocity air through flexible, pre-insulated 2 (inner diameter) tubing which slides through wall structures and around obstructions. All you see is a small, round, air outlet about the diameter of a CD. Located on ceilings, walls, or floors, the outlets can be easily painted or wallpapered.

The ultra-quiet central air conditioning system is run by a blower unit small enough to fit inside an attic, basement, or crawlspace. For winter warming, the system can be heated through a hot water coil or electric coil.
