What Proper Installation Really Means

You get consistent cooling in every room, not just the ones closest to your unit. Your energy bills stay reasonable because your system isn’t working overtime to compensate for poor installation.

Most importantly, you avoid those middle-of-July breakdowns that happen when corners get cut during installation. Proper refrigerant levels, correct electrical connections, and appropriate ductwork sizing mean your new system runs efficiently from day one.

The difference shows up in your monthly utility bills and in how long your equipment actually lasts. When air conditioner installation is done right the first time, you’re looking at 15-20 years of reliable service instead of constant repair calls.

Our AC Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Installation

First, we calculate the proper system size for your space. This isn’t guesswork – we measure square footage, check insulation levels, and account for windows and ceiling height. Oversized units cycle on and off too frequently, while undersized units run constantly without reaching your target temperature.

Next, we handle the permits and schedule the installation around your availability. Our crew arrives with all necessary equipment and materials, so there’s no waiting around for parts or multiple trips.

During installation, we connect refrigerant lines properly, verify electrical connections meet code, and test the entire system before we leave. You get a walkthrough of your new controls and maintenance recommendations that actually help extend your system’s life.

The whole process typically takes one day for most residential installations, though larger commercial projects or complex ductwork modifications may require additional time.

What's Included in Your Installation

Your central AC installation includes proper refrigerant line installation, electrical connections, thermostat setup, and system testing. We handle the permit applications and ensure everything meets local building codes in Woodsburgh.

For ductless AC installation, we mount indoor units at optimal locations for air circulation and run refrigerant lines with minimal wall penetration. Each zone gets its own controls, so you’re not cooling rooms you’re not using.

Commercial AC installation projects include load calculations, equipment placement planning, and coordination with your business schedule to minimize disruption. We work with property managers and business owners to ensure installations meet tenant comfort requirements and building efficiency standards.

Every installation comes with manufacturer warranties on equipment and our warranty on the installation work itself. You also get operating instructions and maintenance schedules that help prevent future problems.

Most residential AC installations take 6-8 hours for a complete system replacement. If you’re adding central air to a home that previously had window units, the timeline extends to 1-2 days depending on ductwork requirements. We arrive early, work efficiently, and clean up completely before leaving. Complex installations involving electrical panel upgrades or extensive ductwork modifications may require additional time, but we’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront so you can plan accordingly.
The right size depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, window placement, and ceiling height – not just square footage alone. Most Woodsburgh homes need between 2-5 tons of cooling capacity, but Long Island’s humidity levels mean proper sizing is critical. An oversized unit will cycle on and off frequently without removing humidity effectively. An undersized unit runs constantly without reaching comfortable temperatures. We perform detailed load calculations during our estimate to determine the exact capacity your home requires for efficient operation.
Yes, AC installation in Woodsburgh requires permits for both the mechanical work and electrical connections. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our installation service. The permit process typically takes 3-5 business days, and we schedule your installation once approvals come through. Skipping permits might save time initially, but it creates problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims. Proper permits also ensure your installation meets current safety codes and manufacturer warranty requirements.
AC installation costs vary based on system size, equipment efficiency ratings, and installation complexity. Basic central air systems start around $3,500-$5,000 for smaller homes, while larger homes or high-efficiency units range $6,000-$12,000. Ductless systems cost $2,000-$4,000 per indoor unit installed. These prices include equipment, labor, permits, and warranties. We provide detailed written estimates that break down equipment and labor costs separately, so you understand exactly what you’re paying for without hidden fees or surprise charges.
Central air conditioning uses ductwork to distribute cool air throughout your entire home from a single indoor unit. It’s ideal if you have existing ducts or want whole-house cooling with one thermostat. Ductless AC installation involves mounting individual units in specific rooms or zones, each with its own controls. Ductless systems work well for homes without existing ductwork, room additions, or when you want different temperatures in different areas. Ductless installation is typically faster and less invasive, while central air provides more uniform cooling and better resale value.
Spring and early fall offer the best scheduling flexibility and sometimes better pricing since demand is lower. However, we install air conditioning systems year-round, including emergency replacements during summer heat waves. If your current system is struggling or you know it needs replacement, don’t wait until it fails completely in July. Spring installations ensure your system is ready before peak cooling season, and you have time to address any issues before you really need the cooling. We typically schedule installations 1-2 weeks out during busy season, sooner during off-peak times.
