Air Conditioning Service FAQs
Whether it’s about air conditioning installation or repairs, our technicians receive many questions throughout the day. Below, we’ll address some of the usual questions so you can be better informed on the subject.
What AC system is best for your home?
The best cooling system for your home will depend on your home’s existing infrastructure and your personal preferences. If your home already has ducting, going with a central air conditioning system or heat pump is ideal. However, if your home lacks ductwork, you’ll need a ductless mini-split system.
What size cooling unit do you need?
One of the most important aspects of choosing a new air conditioning system for your home is getting the appropriate size. A unit that’s too big won’t run long enough to remove excess humidity, while a unit that’s too small will constantly run and leave your home uncomfortably hot. It’s best to have one of our HVAC installation technicians do a thorough inspection of your home and recommend the appropriate size system to meet your cooling needs.
Can you DIY air conditioning replacement?
It’s not recommended. Most AC manufacturers will require a certified HVAC technician to do the system installation to maintain your warranty coverage. Furthermore, most cooling system manufacturers won’t sell their products directly to consumers. A DIY job opens the door for inefficient cooling, more breakdowns, and even fire risk from improper electrical connections.
