"I would say this is the BEST SERVICE YOU CAN FIND for HVAC. I had an intermittently functioning heat system where we almost replaced the $300 Next thermostat and ran a 40 foot power wire through the walls, which would have cost quite a bit. Instead, a very capable man did the right testing and found we only needed a capacitor and he had one on his truck. He then spent another hour removing the dirty fan and cleaning the whole system with Shopvac and garden hose. We'd been breathing all this dusty air and did not know it. They came the day we called and everything was handled expertly after two weeks of problems with heat and incorrect solutions suggested. Highly recommended and I will save their number!"

"It was such a pleasure to have Robert and his son Robert help me mount two huge televisions on the wall. They were not just great at their job, but they were amazing people overall. They were kind, friendly, respectful, and helpful. Things that I didn’t hire them to do, they offered to do it for me. Examples like cutting the TV box for us, cleaning the area, and so forth. Moreover, besides being professional and good at their job, they took their time to make sure that everything was perfect to my liking. I appreciate how they are willing to help me to the fullest. Such people like them are hard to come by nowadays. My family and I are glad to have met them through this project. We also learned that they do many other jobs as well. We will call for them again in the future if we need any other help. All in all, I highly recommend Robert and his son if you want great service. You won’t regret it."

Central a/c installations FAQs

If you’re replacing an old AC system with a new unit, you can usually clean and repair the old ductwork without having to conduct a full replacement. Cleaning HVAC ducts typically costs around $400, while repairs range from $200 to $1,000. In contrast, installing new ductwork can range from $1,000 to $5,000, making it far more costly than cleaning or fixing existing ducts. HVAC installation costs an average of $7,000 to replace a full system, so staying on top of maintenance and repairs is important.

AC cost efficiency depends on the size of your space and your long-term plans for your home. If you only need to cool a small area, a portable AC unit has a low upfront cost. Heat pumps are typically the most cost-effective option if you want to cool an entire home or improve the resale value. They provide strong cooling while being energy-efficient, which saves you money on your utility bills compared to most other AC types.

Installing a central AC unit typically takes four to eight hours if your home already has ductwork in place. However, if new ductwork needs to be installed, this can add another one to two days of labor to your project.
