Be the Coolest Pad on the Pond with Frog Heating & Air
There’s a quirky proverb that says, “You can’t tell by looking at a frog how high he will jump.” At Frog Heating & Air, we like to remind homeowners that the same is true for their air conditioners—you can’t tell how long they will last without an understanding of what you’re buying.

Knowledge is power when your AC system croaks. You may not be an HVAC contractor, but a quick overview of the big issues can help you make wise choices about your next cooling system. Here are some things to consider before you upgrade your pad with a new air conditioner.
Consider the SEER
Your air conditioner’s SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) is a number that represents its overall efficiency. To come up with SEER, we divide total seasonal cooling output by total electrical energy input. As of January 2006, the Department of Energy (DOE) requires all new HVAC equipment to have a minimum SEER of 13. If you are still using an older system, the SEER is probably between 10 and 12. Depending on how close you are to the 10- to 15-year recommended HVAC replacement point, it may be more economical to replace an aging system with a newer, more efficient one.
Jump Into New Features
Like any piece of technology, new HVAC systems boast a variety of innovative features that are worth the investment. These include:
- Continual humidity regulation. Humidity imbalances make HVAC systems work harder to achieve ideal indoor temperatures. High-efficiency central air systems, heat pumps, and hybrids adjust humidity levels so they lie comfortably between 30 and 50 percent.
- Superior airflow. Energy-efficient HVAC systems come with variable-speed motors that improve temperature regulation and create healthier indoor environments.
- Zone capabilities. If part of your home goes unused until summer guests arrive, there is no reason to cool it. Today’s new zone systems allow you to direct AC where it’s needed—without overpaying to cool empty rooms.
Invest in the Best
Too often, AC systems break down at the worst possible times. When you don’t have the extra cash to purchase a top-of-the-line system, don’t skimp on something that won’t satisfy you. Instead, consider stress-free financing that allows you to pay off premium equipment a little at a time. When you partner with Frog Heating & Air to install an industry-leading air conditioning replacement in Brentwood, TN, we offer financing with buyer-friendly terms.
Don’t Play Games with Fly-By-Night Companies
Like most things in life, you get what you pay for when you choose an HVAC contractor. Selecting a bargain-basement company could mean that they aren’t qualified to repair and install all HVAC brands and variations—or that won’t be there when you need them most. At Frog Heating & Air, our NATE-certified technicians undergo regular training to stay at the top of their game and assure that they can service any system, any time. For your peace of mind, we also insist that our techs are licensed, trained, and EPA-certified. Most importantly, we’re a Nashville mainstay that emphasizes quality service and follow-through.
