How System Sizing Causes Short CyclingUpdated 4 hours ago

Short cycling is typically an issue with older, on-off style systems that are oversized for the space. This causes them to constantly turn on and off, which is highly inefficient.

All Pioneer HVAC systems feature variable-speed inverters that can reduce capacity to as low as 30% based on zone demand, virtually eliminating that risk.

It is always better to choose a slightly oversized system. Having extra BTU capacity in reserve ensures comfort during extreme weather, such as intense heatwaves or the dead of winter.
