FAQ
Air Conditioning, common questions
What does licensed and insured mean when I hire an AC company?
It means two layers of protection for you. A license means the state has cleared the company to do HVAC work legally. Insurance means that if a worker gets hurt or something breaks in your home during the job, the company's policy covers it, not you. Always ask for both before any work starts, and be wary of a bid so cheap it skips them.
Why do AC repair and installation quotes vary so much?
Because no two jobs are the same. The price depends on the size of your home, the age and brand of your system, the refrigerant it uses, the shape your ductwork is in, and how hard the equipment is to reach. A good quote lists parts and labor clearly. If a number feels off, get a second opinion before you sign anything.
What does SEER2 mean when I buy a new AC system?
SEER2 is the efficiency score on every new AC unit. It tells you how much cooling the system gives for the electricity it uses, tested under rules that mimic real ductwork. A higher number means a lower power bill in hot months. Higher ratings also cost more up front, so we help you pick the rating that fits your home and budget.
When is the best time of year to schedule AC work?
Spring and fall are the best times. Demand is lower before the summer heat, so booking is easier and installs are not rushed. A spring tune-up catches small problems before the first hot week hits. If your AC quits in the middle of summer, do not wait on it. But for planned work, the mild months give you the most choice.
What is the difference between central air and a ductless mini split?
Central air uses one outdoor unit and a duct system to cool the whole house. A ductless mini split skips the ducts and cools one room or zone with its own small indoor unit. Mini splits work well for garages, add-ons, and homes with no ductwork. Central air fits homes that already have good ducts. We install and service both kinds.
