AC Installation Process Explained

Here's Exactly What Happens During Installation

First, our technician evaluates your space to determine the right system size and type. This includes measuring square footage, checking insulation, and assessing your current ductwork if you have it. Proper sizing prevents the most common AC problems down the road.

Next comes the actual installation. For central systems, this involves setting the outdoor unit, connecting refrigerant lines, and integrating with your ductwork. Ductless installations require mounting indoor units and running conduit to the outdoor compressor. Commercial jobs often need additional electrical work and permits.

Finally, the system gets tested and commissioned. Every component is checked for proper operation, refrigerant levels are verified, and you receive a walkthrough of your new system. The job isn’t complete until everything runs exactly as designed.

Every Type of Installation We Handle

Residential central air conditioning installation covers single-family homes and condos throughout Massapequa Park. This includes new construction, replacement systems, and upgrades from window units. Ductless mini-split installation works perfectly for homes without existing ductwork or room additions.

Every installation includes proper electrical connections, refrigerant line installation, condensate drainage, and thorough testing. You receive manufacturer warranties on equipment plus installation guarantees on the work we perform. We pull permits when required, and all work meets local building codes.

Most residential central AC installations take 6-8 hours for a straightforward replacement. New installations where ductwork needs to be added can take 1-2 days depending on your home’s layout. Ductless mini-split systems usually install in 4-6 hours since there’s no ductwork involved. Commercial installations vary widely based on system complexity and building requirements. We discuss the timeline upfront so you know exactly what to expect and can plan accordingly.
AC sizing depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, window placement, and ceiling height. A system that’s too small won’t cool effectively, while an oversized unit cycles on and off constantly, wasting energy and creating humidity problems. Most Massapequa Park homes need between 2-5 tons of cooling capacity. The only way to determine the right size is through a proper load calculation that accounts for your specific home’s characteristics. This calculation is included with every installation estimate.
Permits are typically required for new AC installations and major system replacements in Massapequa Park. Simple like-for-like replacements often don’t need permits, but it depends on the specific work being done. Commercial installations almost always require permits and inspections. The permit process ensures electrical connections meet code and refrigerant handling follows environmental regulations. Permit costs are included in our installation quotes when required, and we handle all paperwork and scheduling with local authorities.
Central air works best when you have existing ductwork in good condition and want whole-house cooling from one system. Ductless mini-splits are ideal for homes without ducts, room additions, or when you want independent temperature control in different areas. Mini-splits are also more energy efficient since there’s no ductwork to lose cooled air through. The choice depends on your home’s layout, existing infrastructure, and cooling preferences. Both options are reliable when properly installed and maintained.
Installation costs vary based on system type, home size, and complexity of the job. Basic central AC replacement typically ranges from $3,000-$7,000 including equipment. New installations requiring ductwork cost more due to additional labor and materials. Ductless systems range from $2,500-$6,000 depending on how many indoor units you need. Commercial installations are quoted individually based on specific requirements. We offer financing options to spread costs over time, and energy-efficient systems may qualify for utility rebates.
New AC systems need annual professional maintenance to keep warranties valid and ensure peak performance. This includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical connections, and replacing filters. You should change or clean filters every 1-3 months depending on usage and filter type. Keep the outdoor unit clear of debris and vegetation. Most manufacturers require annual professional service to maintain warranty coverage. Regular maintenance prevents costly repairs and extends system life significantly, making it a worthwhile investment in your comfort.
