What Makes a 5 Ton AC Stand Out?

A 5-ton air conditioner is specifically designed to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures in larger homes. The term 'ton' denotes the unit's cooling capacity, with one ton equating to the removal of 12,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs) of heat per hour. Thus, a 5-ton AC system can efficiently eliminate 60,000 BTUs of heat hourly. By using a refrigeration cycle, it circulates refrigerant to absorb indoor heat and expel it outside, ensuring a consistently cool home. Learn more about how does air conditioning work.
 
While you’ll want to work with your local Bryant dealer to ensure a properly sized AC unit for your home, 5-ton air conditioners typically are installed in homes ranging from 2,500 to 3,000 square feet, contingent upon factors like ceiling height, insulation, and climate. 
 
Opting for a 5 ton air conditioning unit offers several advantages. Its significant capacity can work well for larger homes or open floor plans, providing consistent cooling even during peak temperatures.
