I am putting a single room addition onto my home.
- I needed one extra study room to serve as an office for myself… Since I work totally from home, having a separate office space was a must-have for me.
I consulted a building company to do the addition plus take care of everything. They helped me decide on electrical arenament, room size, plus arenament in my home. The only snag my buddy and I hit was deciding on HVAC. I have a central HVAC system plus adding air duct onto that system would have put too much strain on it. Your HVAC is sized for the home. When you add onto the home, the HVAC is then too small. A too small HVAC unit runs all the time, does achieve the setting on the temperature control, plus costs more money to run. You also don’t feel any more comfortable. The overworked heating plus cooling unit then breaks down more often plus has a shorter lifespan. So I knew I didn’t want to do that. I needed an ideal heating plus cooling system for an addition. That is how I got proposed to a heat pump, and not using any air duct, a heat pump is a wall mounted unit that offers both heating plus cooling. I also can have a Wi-Fi operated temperature control to control the temp from my iphone plus set programs before I even get out of bed. Temperature control for a single space is downright cheap. A heat pump is a great solution for single spaces or renovation projects such as mine.
