Frequently Asked Questions About Air Conditioning Installation & Replacement
How do I know if I need a new AC system instead of a repair?
If your air conditioner is around 10-15 years old (or even older), needs frequent repairs or is no longer cooling like it once did, replacing it outright is often more money-smart move than repairing an aging system over and over again.
How long does a new AC installation take?
Most at-home, straightforward AC installation jobs are completed in just a single day, though larger systems or homes requiring ductwork modifications may take longer.
What size air conditioner do I need for my home?
The right system size depends on factors like your home’s square footage, layout, insulation and window placement. A professional load calculation ensures your new system is sized correctly, since an undersized or oversized unit lead to poor performance and higher energy costs.
How much does a new air conditioning system cost?
Costs vary based on system size, efficiency rating and the complexity of installation. A technician will provicde an accurate estimate after an in-home assessment and many providers offer financing options to help spread out the cost.
Will a new AC system lower my energy bills?
Yes, newer high-efficiency systems typically use significantly less energy than older units which leads to noticeable savings on monthly utility bills especially if your current system is more than a decade old.
Do I need to replace my ductwork when installing a new AC system?
Not necessarily! If your existing ductwork is in good condition and properly sized for your new system, it’s often reused. However, damaged, leaky or undersized ductwork may need to be repaired or replaced to make sure that your new system performs properly.
