When should you replace your air conditioner?
These signs are worth checking before you decide:
- Rooms stay warm even when the AC is running.
- Repairs are becoming frequent or expensive.
- Cooling bills have risen without a change in use.
- The system is unusually noisy or keeps breaking down.
- A major repair on an older unit may cost more than it’s worth.
We assess your existing system first. If a repair is the better value, we’ll explain that too.

Frequently asked questions
How long does AC installation take?
Timing depends on the equipment and any changes needed. Your written quote confirms the installation schedule.
Do you remove the old air conditioner?
Your quote confirms old-unit removal, refrigerant recovery and disposal, along with any extra work needed.
How do you choose the right AC size?
We assess your home’s layout, insulation, windows and cooling needs, then check the indoor equipment and airflow. Floor area alone does not determine the right size.
Can you use my existing furnace and ductwork?
Often, but we check compatibility, the indoor coil and airflow before recommending a system. Any changes are explained in your quote.
Do I need a permit?
Requirements depend on the work. Any required permits or inspections are identified in your written quote.
What does AC installation cost?
Use the calculator for a published market planning range. Your home assessment determines the actual quote, including any extra work and applicable taxes.
What warranty is included?
Our 2-year warranty covers installation workmanship. Manufacturer equipment coverage is separate; your written quote explains both.
Are your technicians licensed?
We are a TSSA-registered heating contractor. Our HVAC team includes certified G2 gas technicians and 313A refrigeration mechanics with ODP certification.
Can one central air conditioner cool rooms added to my home?
We check the added rooms' cooling needs, ductwork, airflow and indoor equipment before recommending an approach. We do not assume one central system is always the right solution.
How do you choose where the outdoor unit goes?
We assess installation and service access, manufacturer clearances, refrigerant-line routing, drainage, sound and property constraints on site before recommending a location.
