Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) is an important measurement when comparing air conditioners. The higher the SEER rating, the more energy-efficient the system. In Hamilton’s climate, where both hot summers and cold winters are common, energy efficiency makes a significant impact on utility bills.
Many Amana AC systems exceed ENERGY STAR® guidelines, which means more money saved over time.
ComfortBridge™ technology allows Amana AC units to communicate with your furnace or air handler to optimize energy use and indoor comfort. This smart feature continually adjusts performance to your home’s specific needs.
Benefits:
Personalized comfort settings
Energy-efficient adjustments
Improved indoor humidity control
Amana AC systems are designed with weather-resistant components to withstand Canadian climates, including Hamilton’s variable weather. Features such as coil guards, heavy-gauge galvanized steel cabinets, and baked-on powder-paint finishes enhance the life span of each unit.
Most Amana models come equipped with sound-dampening features like high-density foam compressor sound blankets and specially designed fan blades. This ensures your AC runs quietly without disrupting your indoor or outdoor environments.
Amana air conditioners pair well with smart thermostats like Nest, Ecobee, and Honeywell. These systems offer remote control options, learning behaviors, and scheduling—helping homeowners reduce energy usage while staying comfortable.
Selecting the right size air conditioner depends on several factors:
Square footage of your home
Number of floors and rooms
Insulation and window types
Placement and direction of the sun
Hamilton Furnace and Air Conditioning offers professional load calculations to determine the perfect fit for your cooling needs.
When it comes to maximizing the performance, efficiency, and lifespan of your Amana air conditioning system, proper installation is absolutely essential. Even the most advanced and high-efficiency AC unit can underperform—or worse, experience premature wear and breakdowns—if it isn’t installed correctly from the start.

When comparing Amana and Goodman air conditioners, it’s clear that both brands offer similar performance across five comparable models. However, Amana stands out by offering three additional models and generally more robust warranty coverage.
One of the key differences lies in the warranty terms. Amana provides a lifetime AC replacement warranty on nearly all of its air conditioning units, while Goodman limits this benefit to select models only. This enhanced warranty protection from Amana often justifies a slightly higher price tag—typically around $300 more compared to an equivalent Goodman unit.
At Hamilton Furnace and Air Conditioning, we help you weigh these important differences so you can choose the right system for your home and long-term peace of mind. Whether you prioritize affordability or long-term coverage, we’re here to ensure your investment delivers lasting comfort and value.
Wondering how old your HVAC unit is? Finding out the installation or manufacturing date of your Amana system is simpler than you might think.
Start by locating the data plate on the condenser unit outside your home—this is where the serial number is found. Depending on the format, here’s how to decode it:
Format 1: 0108999999
The first two digits indicate the year, and the next two represent the month of manufacture.
Format 2: 95-99999
The first two digits refer to the year the unit was manufactured.
Format 3: 020699999
The first two digits again show the year, and the following two display the month of production.
This quick inspection helps you determine the age of your unit—useful when deciding on repairs or replacements.
Choosing the correct size Amana HVAC system is essential for ensuring comfort, efficiency, and long-term performance. However, determining the ideal system for your home involves more than just square footage.
Important factors include:
Window size and placement
Ceiling height
Home layout and construction
Insulation and sun exposure
Regional climate conditions
To accurately assess your home’s heating and cooling needs, a professional load calculation is required. At Hamilton Furnace and Air Conditioning, our certified technicians perform precise evaluations to determine the right system capacity for your space—ensuring your Amana HVAC unit delivers consistent comfort and optimal energy efficiency.
At Hamilton Furnace and Air Conditioning, we’re proud to be an experienced Amana dealer, offering expert advice on the best HVAC systems for your specific needs and budget.
We evaluate several key factors, including:

Your region’s climate
Desired energy efficiency ratings
With the help of our knowledgeable team and the latest HVAC tools, you’ll find a system that offers long-term value, performance, and energy savings.
Upgrading your older HVAC system can reduce your heating or cooling bills by 30% to 50%, making it a wise and sustainable choice for the future.
Replacing an HVAC system is a significant investment, but it’s worth considering when your existing unit:
Is over 10–15 years old
Requires frequent repairs
Is no longer energy-efficient
Today’s HVAC systems are up to 60% more efficient than those installed a decade ago. By upgrading, homeowners can enjoy more consistent comfort and significantly lower energy bills—a smart investment in both comfort and cost savings.
Zoning your HVAC system allows you to control temperatures in different areas of your home independently—great for households with varying comfort needs or unused spaces.
Using Amana-compatible zoning technology, zone dampers automatically adjust to deliver heating or cooling only where needed, helping you reduce energy consumption and utility bills.
You’ll enjoy personalized comfort in every room—while your system runs more efficiently than ever.
Yes. Many Amana models exceed ENERGY STAR® standards and offer SEER ratings as high as 24.5.
