Engle Services (855-GET-ENGLE) has published a new guide to energy-efficient AC systems for Central Alabama and Fort Walton Beach homeowners. The guide points to units with high SEER ratings that help reduce energy costs during long, hot seasons.
-- Engle Services, a family-owned HVAC provider established in 2001, published the expert-authored guide on energy-efficient air conditioning systems for warmer climates. The guide discusses the importance of choosing an AC system that cools a home while minimizing utility costs. Highlighting systems with SEER ratings of 16-20 or higher, the team at Engle Services provides actionable information for people living in regions where summer heat drives demand for reliable, cost-effective climate control.

The guide covers four primary cooling technologies: central air conditioning, ductless mini-splits, geothermal heat pumps, and evaporative coolers. It explains how Energy Star certification and variable-speed compressors allow systems to modulate cooling output rather than running at full power, which reduces wear and energy consumption.
While older systems often operate at lower efficiency, the U.S. Department of Energy notes that upgrading to a system with a SEER rating of 16 or higher can significantly cut electricity use. Engle Services employs NATE-certified technicians to install these systems, ensuring they meet manufacturer specifications for peak performance. As a Rheem ProPartner, the company installs high-efficiency Rheem units and offers a $1,000 discount for first responders on complete system replacements.
Homeowners in warmer regions face extended cooling seasons that translate into substantial utility bills, making efficiency a critical factor when selecting air conditioning systems. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), average annual air conditioning costs in hot-humid regions like the Southeast (e.g., Florida, Alabama) can be roughly 8-9 times higher than in temperate marine regions. Energy efficiency research reveals that higher SEER ratings—particularly those exceeding 20—can reduce operating costs by up to 50 percent compared to older, lower-efficiency units. The National Association of Realtors and energy efficiency experts emphasize that SEER and EER ratings serve as critical benchmarks when evaluating AC performance, underscoring the timeliness and value of expert guidance in this area.
"When shopping for an efficient AC system, make sure to look for Energy Star certification, a variable speed compressor, and a programmable thermostat," explains the author.
Beyond equipment selection, Engle Services emphasizes attic insulation and annual maintenance as necessary steps to prevent cool air loss and maintain efficiency. The company offers a range of energy-efficient cooling technologies, including central air, geothermal systems, ductless mini-splits, and evaporative coolers.
Engle Services provides installation and repair across Central Alabama (Sylacauga, Talladega, and Birmingham) and Fort Walton Beach, Florida. These service areas experience some of the highest cooling degree days in the country, making efficient equipment a primary factor in home operating costs.
