What Our Customers Are Saying
Sizing Your System for the Texas Climate
Most builders install the cheapest, smallest unit possible to pass code. This leads to short-cycling and hot spots in your upstairs bedrooms. When we handle your Central Air Conditioning Installation, we do not guess on the size. We look at your square footage, insulation levels, and window directions. This ensures your new system actually keeps up when it is 105 degrees outside.
If your current unit runs 24/7 without cooling the house, it is likely too small or worn out. We see this often in North Texas homes built in the early 2000s. A properly sized Trane or Carrier unit will cycle off occasionally. This saves your motor and lowers your electric bill. We aim for efficiency and longevity.
The AC Replacement Process and Permits
AC Replacement is more than just swapping boxes in the attic. We pull permits with the city to ensure your home stays up to code. This protects your property value and ensures the electrical work is safe. Our technicians inspect your existing plenum and return air drops for leaks before we set the new coil. Air leaks in a 130-degree attic will ruin a new unit fast.
We use heavy-duty plastic or concrete pads for the outdoor condenser. North Texas soil shifts constantly, so we make sure the unit stays level. A tilted unit causes oil to settle away from the compressor, leading to early failure. We also install new liquid line dryers to keep the refrigerant system clean and dry. Details like this extend the life of your investment.
Upgrading to High-Efficiency Air Conditioner Installation
Modern SEER2 requirements have changed how we approach Air Conditioner Installation. Older units might be 8 or 10 SEER, while newer systems start at 14.3 SEER2. This jump in efficiency can cut your cooling costs by thirty percent. High-efficiency units also use R-410A or newer refrigerants that are better for the environment and easier to source than old R-22.
We often recommend pairing your new AC with a smart thermostat like an ecobee or Honeywell T6. These tools allow you to monitor your home temp from your phone. Some models even alert us if the system stops cooling. This prevents you from coming home to a 90-degree house after work. We calibrate these sensors during the final walkthrough.
Quality Ductwork and Airflow Solutions
A great AC Installation is wasted if your ductwork is falling apart. During the install, we check for crushed flex ducts or disconnected vents in your attic. Poor airflow is the main cause of frozen coils and dead compressors. We seal every connection with professional-grade mastic or foil tape. This keeps the cold air in your living space.
We also look at your return air capacity. Most systems are starved for air because the intake vents are too small. We might suggest adding a return to a master bedroom or hallway. This reduces the strain on the blower motor. Static pressure tests are part of our standard commissioning process. We make sure the air is moving exactly how the manufacturer intended.
