AC Installation

Quiet, efficient central air. Installed in one day.

The right size, installed once.

We size the system to your house with a room-by-room load calculation, not a guess from the old unit's label. You get a one-page quote with three options and the full price on each.

typical install: 1day
parts and labour warranty: 10yr
high-efficiency options: 17+SEER2

Questions

How long does an AC install take?

Most replacements take one day. If ductwork or electrical changes are needed, we tell you in the quote and plan for a second day.

Can I keep my furnace?

Usually, yes. We check that the furnace blower and coil match the new AC. If they do not, we explain why and price the fix.

Should I get a heat pump instead?

Often it costs a little more than a central AC and also heats your home in spring and fall. Every AC quote we write shows the heat pump option next to it.
