What Proper Installation Really Means

When your AC system is installed correctly, you stop worrying about it. No more surprise breakdowns during heat waves. No more sky-high electric bills because your system is working twice as hard as it should.

You get consistent cooling throughout your home. Every room reaches the temperature you set, without hot spots or that annoying cycle of too cold, then too warm.

Your energy bills stay predictable because properly sized and installed systems don’t waste power fighting against poor installation. The system runs efficiently, cycles properly, and maintains comfort without the constant on-off cycling that drives up costs and wears out equipment.

Here's How We Handle Your Installation

First, we assess your space to determine the right system size and type for your home. This isn’t guesswork – we calculate your cooling load based on square footage, insulation, windows, and your specific needs.

Next, we handle all permits and schedule the installation at a time that works for you. Our team arrives with the right equipment and materials to complete the job efficiently.

During installation, we remove your old system if needed, install the new equipment according to manufacturer specifications, and connect all electrical and refrigerant lines. We test everything thoroughly – airflow, temperatures, electrical connections, and system cycling.

Before we leave, we walk you through your new system’s operation and answer any questions. Your installation includes proper disposal of old equipment and cleanup of the work area.

Most residential AC installations take one to two days, depending on the system type and complexity of your home’s setup. Central air systems typically require a full day if ductwork is already in place, while ductless mini-split installations often take just a few hours. If we need to install new ductwork or make electrical upgrades, the timeline extends accordingly. We provide a clear timeline during your estimate so you know exactly what to expect. Commercial installations vary significantly based on system size and building requirements.
AC system size depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, ceiling height, window placement, and Long Island’s climate conditions. A system that’s too small won’t cool effectively during hot summer days, while an oversized system cycles on and off too frequently, wasting energy and failing to remove humidity properly. We perform detailed load calculations to determine the right size for your specific situation. Most Garden City South homes need between 2-5 tons of cooling capacity, but proper sizing requires professional assessment rather than guesswork.
Central air works well if you already have ductwork and want consistent cooling throughout your entire home. It’s typically more cost-effective for whole-house cooling and integrates with existing heating systems. Ductless mini-splits are ideal for homes without existing ducts, additions, or when you want zone control to cool specific areas. They’re also more energy-efficient since there’s no ductwork to lose energy through. We evaluate your home’s layout, existing systems, and cooling preferences to recommend the best option for your situation and budget.
AC installation costs vary based on system type, size, and installation complexity. Central air systems typically range from $3,000-$8,000 including installation, while ductless mini-splits start around $2,500 for single-zone systems. Factors affecting cost include equipment brand and efficiency rating, electrical work needed, ductwork modifications, and permit fees. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Higher-efficiency systems cost more upfront but reduce monthly energy bills significantly.
Yes, we obtain all necessary permits for your AC installation in Garden City South. HVAC installations require permits to ensure work meets local building codes and safety standards. We handle the permit application process, schedule required inspections, and ensure everything passes inspection before considering your job complete. This protects you from potential issues when selling your home and ensures your installation meets all local requirements. Permit costs are included in our installation estimates so there are no surprises.
We handle complete removal and proper disposal of your old AC equipment as part of our installation service. This includes safely recovering refrigerant according to EPA regulations, disconnecting electrical connections, and removing the old indoor and outdoor units. Old equipment contains materials that require proper disposal – we ensure everything is handled according to environmental regulations. If your old system has any salvage value, we can discuss options for reducing your installation cost. Our goal is leaving you with a clean installation and no worries about dealing with old equipment.
