Weathering the Heat

WeatherKing 14 SEER Air Conditioner

Another summer brings heat and with it countless air conditioners that need replacing.  That’s why today we are looking at WeatherKing air conditioners and air handlers as a replacement for those old units.  It’s true that no one wants to sit in their sweltering homes trying to figure out what air conditioner to buy.  Mywholeseller has a few models to look at to help keep the research to a minimum. 

WheatherKing has been in production since 1963 and is now produced by Rheem Manufacturing.  Mywholeseller offers 14 SEER air conditioners from WeatherKing as well as 14 SEER indoor air handlers.  A good place to start when looking at potential units for replacement is understanding the lingo used in the HVAC world.  SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio or Rating.  This is a ratio that takes the cooling output of an air conditioning unit throughout a season and divides it by the energy it uses in Watts-Hours.  It can be compared to how you calculate a car’s miles per gallon.  The higher the number the better the value.  Typical SEER values for home systems can range from 13 all the way up to 27.  Keep in mind though that you don’t always need to overdo it as you will be paying more for a higher SEER rating which might not save you that much money depending on the size of your house and where you live.  The federal government has mandated all new air conditioners be at least 14 SEER. 

WeatherKing’s 14 SEER air conditioners and air handlers are worth considering for a few reasons.  If you are looking to replace your unit on a budget, the 1.5 ton 14 SEER air conditioner is priced at $967 which is a great option.  If you need a higher tonnage unit this 14 SEER line goes from 1.5 to 5 tons.  The 5 ton unit comes in at a cost of $1,917.  When you compare this to other units you can save quite a bit. 

WeatherKing 14 SEER indoor air handlers are also a great choice for when you need to fit a certain budget.  We offer a range from 2 to 5 ton units which cost between $882 and $1,279.  Both the ac units and the air handlers made by WeatherKing look sleek and are constructed from steel which makes them ideal for withstanding weather.  The WA14 ac units have a unique wrap around coil to improve air flow and heat transfer.  Both have manufacturer warranties. 

The WeatherKing products are great to considering when looking to replace those old units this summer.  We recommend keeping in mind that you should consider what you need for your home when looking into what unit will best help you stay cool.
