AC Installation

When AC Installation is the Right Fix

System is 12+ years old and failing repeatedly
Major repair (compressor, coil) on an aging unit
R-22 system that's expensive to keep charged
Rooms that never cool evenly
Energy bills climbing every summer
Adding central air to a home that never had it

We size with a load calculation, not a rule of thumb

An oversized AC is the most common mistake in this market — it cools fast, short-cycles, never runs long enough to pull humidity, and leaves the house cold and clammy. We run a Manual J load calculation on the home's square footage, insulation, window area, and orientation before we quote a size. A correctly sized 3-ton often beats an oversized 4-ton on both comfort and bill.

Efficiency that actually pays back

New systems start at 14.3 SEER2 (the current federal minimum) and run up past 20 SEER2 with variable-speed compressors. In a Kansas City climate, a mid-tier two-stage system is usually the sweet spot — meaningfully lower bills and far better humidity control than base-model single-stage, without the premium of a top-end variable-speed unit. We'll model the payback against your actual usage before you decide.

A clean install is most of the value

The equipment is only as good as the installation. We pull a vacuum to 500 microns and hold it, braze under nitrogen, verify the charge by subcooling and superheat, check static pressure on the ductwork, and commission the system to the manufacturer's spec. A sloppy install on premium equipment underperforms a careful install on mid-tier equipment every time — and it's the install, not the box, that voids warranties.

AC Installation — Frequently Asked

How long does an AC replacement take?

A straight changeout of an existing system is typically one day. Adding refrigerant lines, electrical, or ductwork modifications can push it to two. We give you a firm timeline in the quote.

Do you offer financing?

Yes — we offer financing on system replacements so a failed AC doesn't have to be a five-figure surprise. We'll lay out the monthly options alongside the cash price.

Should I replace the furnace at the same time?

Often yes, if it's a similar age. The AC's indoor coil sits on top of the furnace and shares the blower; matching a new high-efficiency coil to an old furnace blower can leave efficiency on the table. We'll tell you honestly whether your existing furnace is worth keeping.
