The efficiency of a central air conditioning system is measured by its seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) and energy efficiency ratio (EER). An air conditioner with a high SEER rating will cost less to operate each month. On the other hand, you will be required to pay a higher price for an energy-efficient system. Similarly, a higher rated Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) means a more efficient air-source heat pump. If you’re in the market for a new air conditioner, we believe it’s worth investing in a system with a high SEER rating.

An average furnace will operate two to three times in an hour to maintain a warm temperature in your house. A standard heating cycle ranges from 10 to 15 minutes depending on a couple of variables. However, the total amount of time your furnace operates is dependent on factors such as its AFUE rating and the speed of the blower motor. For example, the average time of a heating cycle will vary in furnaces with variable-speed blower motors and single-stage fans. Regardless of the type of system, it is not normal for a furnace to activate and deactivate every couple of minutes. To help you diagnose the problem, we have compiled a list of the 5 most common causes of furnace short cycling and how to prevent it.
