AC Installation & Replacement
Right-sized, properly commissioned cooling systems — installed in a day by our own employees, never subcontractors.
A new air conditioner is only as good as its installation. We start with a Manual J load calculation — not a guess based on square footage — so you get a system sized for your actual home, not your neighbor's. Installation includes new pad and line set as needed, a full commissioning with measured refrigerant charge and airflow, and city permit and inspection handled by us. Estimates are free, in writing, and good for 30 days, with good-better-best options at every budget.

Common questions
How long does an AC installation take?
A straight replacement is almost always done in one working day — we arrive around 8am and you have cold air by dinner. Jobs that add ductwork or relocate equipment can take a second day, and we'll tell you that before you sign.
What size air conditioner do I need?
It depends on your home's insulation, windows, orientation, and duct layout — which is why we run a Manual J load calculation on every estimate. Oversized units short-cycle and leave the house humid; undersized ones never catch up on 100° days. Sizing right is most of the battle.
Should I replace my furnace at the same time?
If your furnace is over 12 years old, replacing both at once usually saves money — shared labor, matched airflow, and a single warranty clock. If your furnace is newer, we'll happily pair a new AC to it. We quote it both ways so you can compare.
