When Is The Best Time To Install A New AC System?
We recommend scheduling your air conditioning installation during winter or early spring. This can help you avoid the high demand in the summer months.
How Do I Care For My New AC Unit?
Routine preventive maintenance is the key to keeping your air conditioner functional for years to come.
During an AC maintenance appointment, our technicians replace air filters, clean coils, adjust fan belts, lubricate motors, and check refrigerant levels. If conducted annually, this inspection and tune-up process will preserve the condition and performance of your new air conditioning system.
The AC Replacement Process
Initial Assessment
One of our HVAC technicians will visit you for an in-home consultation. During this meeting, the technician will inspect your pre-existing air conditioner. They will also measure the square footage of your household in order to calculate your ideal AC unit size.
Site Preparation
Any nearby furniture or valuables should be removed from the installation site to prevent accidental damage. The HVAC technician will also carefully lay down drop cloths and plastic coverings to protect your flooring.
Old Unit Removal
The HVAC technician will shut off the electrical connection to your old air conditioning unit. They will also drain the system of refrigerant and haul away the unit for safe disposal.
New Unit Installation
The new unit will be fitted into the installation site and properly connected to your household’s electrical wiring and thermostat.
System Test
Your new air conditioner will be required to complete one full cooling cycle before installation is complete. This ensures that all components were correctly installed and that the unit is in good working order.
Benefits Of Installing A New Air Conditioner
Reduced Maintenance Costs
As an air conditioner grows in age, it will require frequent repairs, tune-ups, and maintenance. A new system can help you avoid constant repairs!
Smart Technology Features
As temperatures rise, you need an air conditioning system that can keep up. A smart AC unit can offer you home comfort on demand.
With Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity features, these newer AC models can be programmed with weekly schedules, offer up-to-date diagnostic information, and supply monthly usage reports.
Greater Energy Savings
The cost of reduced efficiency and constant repairs can quickly add up over time. When the cost of new parts and repairs is greater than the cost of a new unit, it is time to invest in a replacement. A modern, energy-efficient AC unit uses less electricity than older systems, helping you save money in the long run.
