FAQs
What size air conditioner do I need for my Spring City home?
Proper sizing depends on the square footage of your home, its insulation levels, window orientation, number of occupants, and even local climate data for Spring City. We perform a detailed Manual J load calculation to determine the exact cooling capacity required. This scientific approach prevents the common problems of an oversized system (short-cycling, higher humidity, wasted energy) or an undersized unit (constant running, uneven temperatures).
How long does a typical air-conditioning installation take?
A standard replacement of an existing unit usually takes 4–8 hours, while a first-time installation that requires new ductwork or electrical upgrades can take 1–2 full days. We start with a pre-installation inspection to confirm site conditions, arrive with all equipment on the scheduled day, and test the system thoroughly before leaving. You’ll have cold air the same day in most cases.
Will a new high-efficiency AC really lower my energy bills?
Yes. Modern systems carry SEER2 ratings of 15–25, meaning they can use 30–50 % less electricity than units installed just 10–15 years ago. In Spring City’s humid summers, higher efficiency also means better moisture removal and improved comfort. Most homeowners see payback through energy savings and reduced repair costs within 5–7 years, especially when paired with proper maintenance.
Do I need permits or inspections for an AC installation in Spring City?
Yes. Spring City follows Pennsylvania building codes, and any new HVAC equipment change-out requires a mechanical permit. Our team handles the paperwork, schedules the municipal inspection, and ensures the installation meets code for refrigerant handling, electrical connections, and condensate drainage. All fees are included in your written estimate—no surprises.
What warranties and guarantees come with your installations?
All systems we install include the manufacturer’s limited parts warranty—typically 10 years on compressors and major components when registered. In addition, we provide our own 1-year labor warranty and a 100 % satisfaction guarantee. Optional extended labor coverage up to 10 years is available for a modest fee, protecting you from out-of-pocket repair costs for the life of the warranty.
How should I prepare my home for installation day?
Clear a path to the indoor air handler and outdoor condenser by moving furniture, décor, and vehicles if they block access. Secure pets in a separate room, and let us know about any alarm systems. We place drop cloths and wear shoe covers, but it helps to remove delicate items from work areas. If electrical upgrades are required, we may need brief power shut-offs, so plan accordingly for sensitive electronics.
