Is it time?

Signs you need a new AC

Not sure whether to repair or replace? These are the most common reasons homeowners choose a new system.

It's 12–15+ years old

Most central air conditioners lose efficiency and reliability with age.

It uses R-22 refrigerant

R-22 is no longer produced, so recharging an old system keeps getting more expensive.

Repairs keep adding up

If you're calling for repairs every summer, a new system may cost less over time.

Electric bills keep rising

Older AC units use much more power to cool the same home.

Rooms are hot or humid

Uneven cooling or sticky air can mean the system is worn out or the wrong size.

The compressor failed

When the compressor goes on an older unit, replacing is usually the smarter choice.

In our old house, Ross replaced both our air conditioner and furnace. From the beginning, we were impressed by how knowledgeable, honest, and trustworthy he was. … We recently hired Ross again to replace the HVAC systems in our new house. Obviously, no one looks forward to spending money on a new furnace and air conditioner, but I genuinely felt comfortable making such a significant purchase because I knew we were working with someone we could trust.

FAQ

AC installation questions

Have a different question? Call us at (773) 387-9104.

How much does a new AC cost?

It depends on the size of your home, the efficiency rating and the brand you choose. We give you a free in-home estimate with a firm, upfront price, and you can spread the cost over up to 24 months at 0% APR on qualifying projects.

What size AC do I need?

We size your new system during the in-home estimate based on your home, not a rule of thumb. An AC that's too big or too small cools unevenly, leaves the air humid and wears out faster.

Should I replace my furnace at the same time?

Not always. If your furnace is newer and in good shape, we can match a new AC to it. If both are older, replacing them together can save on installation and ensure the indoor and outdoor parts work well together. We'll give you an honest recommendation.

My AC uses R-22. Do I have to replace it?

Not right away, but R-22 is no longer produced, so repairs that need refrigerant keep getting more expensive. If your R-22 system needs a major repair, replacing it with a modern system is usually the better investment.

Should I consider a heat pump instead?

A heat pump cools like an AC and also heats your home, and rebates may be available. We can show you both options so you can compare.

Do you offer financing?

Yes. Qualifying projects can be financed at 0% APR for up to 24 months, subject to credit approval.
