Preparing for AC Installation

Installing a new air conditioning system is an exciting step toward improved comfort and efficiency. On average, a standard AC installation takes 4 to 8 hours, although this can vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the system, the size of your home, and whether additional modifications, like ductwork repairs, are needed. Larger or more intricate systems may extend the process, sometimes requiring up to two days.

To ensure a smooth installation, proper preparation is key. Start by clearing the area around your indoor and outdoor AC units to provide technicians with easy access. This includes removing furniture, clutter, or obstacles in the workspace. Secure pets in a separate area to avoid disruptions and maintain safety. If you have concerns about your current electrical system, notify your HVAC provider in advance, as they may need to assess or upgrade it.

During your installation in Hillsboro, OH, expect occasional interruptions, such as brief power outages or noise. Communicate openly with your HVAC contractor to clarify timelines and expectations. For instance, if you work from home, let your technician know so they can make sure to keep things quiet and the power on.

Duct Before & After

Signs Your AC Is Calling It Quits

An aging or inefficient air conditioning system often shows signs that it’s time for an upgrade. Recognizing these signs early can prevent costly repairs and ensure your home stays comfortable year-round.

  • Frequent Repairs. If your AC system requires repairs more than once a season or the repair costs are approaching half the price of a new unit, replacement is likely more cost-effective.
  • Rising Energy Bills. A noticeable increase in energy bills, despite consistent usage, could indicate your system is losing efficiency. Newer models are far more energy-efficient, which can save you money in the long run.
  • Uneven Cooling. If certain rooms in your home feel significantly warmer or cooler than others, your AC might struggle to maintain proper airflow, a common sign of wear and tear.
  • Age of the System. Most air conditioners last 10 to 15 years with regular maintenance. If yours is approaching or exceeding this range, it’s likely nearing the end of its lifespan.
  • Excessive Noise or Odors. Unusual noises or musty odors can signal internal issues that may not be worth repairing.

Investing in a modern air conditioning system can enhance your home’s comfort, energy efficiency, and value. Schedule an appointment with our team today!
