"Terry installed our new Heat Pump systems over a year ago. They worked ok for a little while but then we lost air conditioning last summr called for service all and no response from him. Told Terry our electric bills are over $600 a month there must be something wrong with the system. Left messages and texts never responded. Called him from a different phone number and he answered this was a month ago. Told him heat hasnt been working down stairs he Said he would be out this week. It's been e weeks and he doesn't answer his phone ir texts. I've not been happy with this system from day 1 and the service after the installation is non existing. I would not recommend him at all. We will now have to have someone else come out to fix his system."

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.
