FAQs
What does “seamless installation” mean for my new air-conditioning system in Sewanee?
A seamless installation means our team handles every step—home load calculation, equipment selection, permitting, removal of the old unit, ductwork adjustments, refrigerant charging, thermostat setup, and final performance testing—without gaps in scheduling or responsibility. You have a single point of contact, and the project is completed in one continuous sequence so your home is never left without cooling during Sewanee’s warm, humid days.
How long will an air-conditioning installation typically take?
For most single-family homes in Sewanee, a straightforward replacement with no major duct changes takes 4–8 hours. If we are upgrading ductwork, relocating the air handler, or adding indoor air-quality accessories, the job can extend to 1–2 full days. We confirm timing during the in-home assessment and keep you updated throughout the process.
How do I know what size air conditioner my home needs?
We perform a Manual J load calculation that factors in Sewanee’s summer temperatures, your home’s square footage, insulation levels, window orientation, and occupancy. This scientific approach ensures the unit is neither oversized (which causes humidity problems and higher bills) nor undersized (which leads to inadequate cooling). The result is a perfectly matched system that runs efficiently and maintains comfort.
Are high-efficiency systems worth the extra cost in Sewanee’s climate?
Yes. Sewanee’s combination of warm summers and cool winters makes year-round efficiency important. High-SEER2 air conditioners and dual-fuel heat-pump systems can cut summer cooling costs by up to 40 percent compared to older 10-SEER units. Many qualify for TVA EnergyRight rebates and federal tax credits, which reduce the upfront price and shorten the payback period to 3–5 years.
Will I need new ductwork when I install a new AC system?
Not always. We inspect your existing ducts for sizing, leaks, and insulation. If they are the correct dimension and in good condition, we seal and balance them to match the new equipment. If the ducts are undersized, poorly insulated, or leaking more than 15 percent, replacing or modifying them will improve comfort, efficiency, and system longevity.
What kind of warranty and maintenance should I expect after installation?
Our systems come with a 10-year parts warranty and a 1-year labor warranty, which can be extended to 10 years with our ComfortCare maintenance plan. Regular maintenance—filter changes, coil cleaning, refrigerant checks, and electrical inspections—twice a year keeps your warranty valid, maximizes efficiency, and helps prevent unexpected breakdowns during Sewanee’s peak cooling season.
