Frequently Asked Questions
You should have your AC inspected and serviced at least once per year, preferably before the peak summer cooling season. Regular maintenance helps prevent breakdowns and keeps your system running efficiently. Our technicians can perform a tune-up to check refrigerant, clean coils, change filters and more.
Some common signs your AC needs repairs include reduced cooling capability, strange noises, water leaking around the unit, tripped breakers, or failure to turn on. Our experienced technicians can diagnose any AC issues Your’re experiencing and recommend the necessary repairs.
The cost to install a new AC unit averages $5,000 to $12,000 depending on the size, efficiency rating and features. We provide free quotes for AC replacement tailored to your home. Our upfront pricing means no hidden costs. We also offer special financing to help you afford a new AC.
Once an AC unit is over 10 years old, repairs may not be cost effective. It often makes sense to replace it with a modern, energy-efficient model. Our HVAC experts will assess your system’s age, condition and repair history to advise you on whether replacement is the better investment.
Simple ways to reduce your AC costs include closing vents in unused rooms, changing air filters monthly, having your system tuned-up yearly, setting the thermostat to 78 °F while you’re away, and shade your AC from direct sun exposure. Upgrading to an energy-efficient model can also dramatically cut your cooling bills.
