Installing a new air conditioning system at home is no small task. It demands skilled HVAC professionals to guarantee that the job is done efficiently and correctly the first time. Typically, our AC installations can take anywhere from a day to a day and a half, based on your home's specific layout and the condition of the old system. Give us a call to see what you need.


With recent advancements in air conditioning technology, it's crucial for us to assess your current system to be prepared properly for the day of the installation. We will suggest a system with the correct capability to fit your home’s particular size and energy needs.

New Residential Air Conditioning Inspection and Installation Planning

To ensure an accurate assessment of the task at hand, we dispatch a skilled estimator to evaluate your current air conditioning setup. They'll identify any potential need for special equipment or considerations regarding the removal of old AC equipment, ensuring a smooth transition to your new cooling system. Given the increased size of modern air conditioners, equipped with larger coils for enhanced efficiency and compliance with government standards, our estimator will meticulously assess your home’s space requirements, any changes that might be necessary for the ductwork, electrical system capacities, and other unique home features that need to be addressed. An expert reviewing the physical location will be invaluable for planning an efficient air conditioning installation project.

Proper Removal of the Old Air Conditioning Equipment

We adhere to industry best practices to safely remove the old air conditioning system, prioritizing your safety, our technicians, and the environment. Our process includes compliant removal of refrigerant in accordance with EPA standards, as well as extraction of the disconnect box and flexible electrical conduit (the whip). Once these components are successfully removed, we proceed to extract the old system for proper disposal and prepare the area for the installation of your new air conditioning system.

Establishing a Foundation and Placing the Outdoor AC Unit

The newer air conditioning units tend to have larger dimensions to maximize the efficiency of their expanded cooling coils. Establishing a sturdy foundation for your new unit is crucial to prevent any shifting or instability once installed. Our team specializes in constructing a level, durable base that ensures your AC unit remains steadfast and secure for years to come, eliminating concerns about sinking, tilting, or movement.

Installing the Interior AC Equipment and Getting it All Connected

Moving indoors, we proceed to connect the indoor unit to your furnace, and if feasible, we will install a new line set. Paying close attention to details ensures that all lines are tightly sealed and free of any potential contaminants. After ensuring everything is properly connected, we install a new disconnect and conduct thorough testing to ensure the electrical system is primed for electronic communication. Close inspection of all of the wiring allows us to take proper measures to protect the wiring from environmental elements that might damage the electrical system. When all items on our installation checklist are verified, we pressurize the new AC system.
