AC Installation Process

Straightforward Installation, No Surprises

Our process starts with an honest assessment of your space and cooling needs. We measure your home, check your electrical capacity, and evaluate your existing ductwork if you’re going with central air. You get a clear quote that covers everything – equipment, labor, permits, and any additional materials needed.

Installation day means showing up on time with all the right equipment. The old system comes out first, then the new unit goes in with proper connections to electrical, refrigerant lines, and ductwork. Everything gets tested to make sure it’s cooling properly and running efficiently.

Before leaving, we walk you through your new system’s operation and maintenance basics. You get warranty information and contact details for any future service needs. The goal is simple: you should feel confident about your new AC from the moment we finish the job.

Most residential AC installations take 4-8 hours depending on the system type and complexity. A straightforward central air replacement where existing ductwork and electrical are adequate usually takes 4-6 hours. New installations requiring ductwork modifications or electrical upgrades can take a full day or longer. Ductless mini-split systems typically install faster, often within 3-4 hours for single-zone units. We provide realistic time estimates upfront and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
New Hyde Park requires permits for most AC installations, especially those involving electrical work or major equipment changes. Central air installations typically need both HVAC and electrical permits. Ductless systems may require permits depending on electrical requirements and installation complexity. The permit process usually takes 1-3 business days and costs vary based on system size and scope of work. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our installation service, ensuring everything meets local building codes and safety requirements.
Proper AC sizing requires calculating your home’s cooling load based on square footage, ceiling height, insulation quality, window placement, and local climate factors. An oversized unit cycles on and off too frequently, wasting energy and failing to control humidity. An undersized unit runs constantly without adequately cooling your space. Professional load calculations consider factors like sun exposure, number of occupants, and heat-generating appliances. We perform detailed assessments to determine the right capacity, typically measured in tons or BTUs, ensuring optimal comfort and efficiency for your specific New Hyde Park home.
Central air systems use ductwork to distribute cool air throughout your entire home from a single outdoor unit and indoor air handler. They’re ideal for whole-house cooling and work well if you already have ductwork in place. Ductless mini-split systems have individual indoor units connected to an outdoor compressor, allowing zone-specific temperature control without requiring ducts. Ductless systems install faster, offer more precise temperature control, and work well for room additions or homes without existing ductwork. Both options have advantages depending on your home’s layout, existing infrastructure, and cooling preferences.
AC installation costs vary based on system type, home size, and installation complexity. Central air systems typically range from $3,000-$7,000 including equipment and installation, while ductless mini-splits range from $2,000-$5,000 for single-zone systems. Costs increase for larger homes, complex installations requiring electrical upgrades, or premium high-efficiency equipment. Additional factors include ductwork modifications, permit fees, and any necessary electrical panel upgrades. We provide detailed written estimates covering all costs upfront, so you know exactly what to expect without hidden fees or surprise charges after the work begins.
Yes, we offer emergency AC installation services when your system fails during peak summer heat and you need immediate relief. Emergency installations typically focus on getting you basic cooling as quickly as possible, often within 24-48 hours depending on equipment availability. Priority goes to vulnerable situations like homes with elderly residents, medical needs, or small businesses that can’t operate without air conditioning. Emergency service rates apply for after-hours and weekend installations. While emergency installations cost more than scheduled work, our service ensures you’re not stuck without cooling during New Hyde Park’s hottest summer days when AC failure isn’t just uncomfortable – it’s unbearable.
