AC Installation Process Explained

Straightforward Installation, No Surprises

First, our technician evaluates your space, existing ductwork, and electrical setup. We calculate the right system size based on square footage, insulation, and local climate factors. You get a detailed estimate that covers equipment, labor, permits, and cleanup.

Installation day starts with protecting your floors and furniture. Old equipment gets removed safely, and new components are installed according to manufacturer specifications. All electrical connections are tested, refrigerant lines are pressure-tested, and the system runs through complete startup procedures.

Before leaving, our technician walks you through system operation, maintenance schedules, and warranty details. You get documentation for permits, warranties, and service records. The job isn’t finished until your new AC is cooling properly and you understand how everything works.

Most residential AC installations take 6-12 hours depending on system complexity and existing setup. Simple replacements where ductwork and electrical are already in place typically finish in one day. New installations requiring ductwork modifications, electrical upgrades, or permit inspections may take 1-2 days. We provide a realistic timeline during the initial assessment so you can plan accordingly. Emergency replacements during heat waves get priority scheduling to restore cooling as quickly as possible.
AC system size depends on square footage, ceiling height, insulation quality, window placement, and local climate factors. A proper load calculation considers all these variables to determine the right capacity in BTUs or tons. Oversized systems cycle on and off frequently, wasting energy and failing to remove humidity properly. Undersized systems run constantly without reaching comfortable temperatures. Professional sizing ensures optimal performance, energy efficiency, and equipment longevity. The assessment is included with our installation estimates.
Yes, ductless mini-split systems are perfect for homes without existing ductwork or room additions where extending ducts isn’t practical. These systems use individual indoor units connected to an outdoor compressor, providing zone-controlled cooling without major construction. Installation is less invasive than central air systems and typically completes in one day. Ductless systems also offer heating capabilities and high energy efficiency ratings. They’re ideal for older Long Island homes that were built before central air became standard.
Yes, permit applications and inspection scheduling are included with our installation services. Nassau County requires permits for most AC installations, and the process involves submitting equipment specifications, installation plans, and contractor licensing information. We handle all paperwork and coordinate with local inspectors to ensure code compliance. This protects your investment and ensures proper installation standards are met. You receive copies of all permits and inspection certificates for your records and future reference.
All our installations include labor warranties covering installation workmanship, plus manufacturer warranties on equipment components. If problems arise from installation errors, we complete repairs at no charge. Equipment defects are covered under manufacturer warranties with parts and labor included. We provide ongoing service support for warranty claims, routine maintenance, and future repairs. Having your system installed and serviced by the same company streamlines warranty processes and ensures consistent, reliable support throughout your AC system’s lifespan.
Installation costs vary based on system type, capacity, installation complexity, and any necessary electrical or ductwork modifications. Basic central air replacements start around $3,000-5,000 while high-efficiency systems or complex installations can cost $8,000-12,000 or more. Ductless systems typically cost $2,000-4,000 per indoor unit installed. Our free estimates include detailed breakdowns of equipment, labor, permits, and additional work needed. We offer financing options for qualified customers to spread costs over manageable monthly payments.
