"I recently discovered a six-inch hole in my HVAC ductwork that had been there for nearly 50 years, causing a significant loss of heat. I used Angi to find a professional, and within 30 seconds, I received a call from Artur Zawojek, the owner of NJ MEP Solutions LLC in Howell, NJ.

Hi, I’m Danny, and I take pride in delivering high-quality craftsmanship. I approach every project with the same care and attention to detail as if I were working in my own home. My goal is to provide professional, reliable service while ensuring my clients are completely satisfied with the results.

"Danny was professional, consulted me before changing any design style,, and was clean and timely on site. The gate was in a difficult spot, and at an off angle relative to the pool, but Dan made it work and after some testing and movement, we agreed on a good spot and style for the platform and gate. Very happy with the results, and it functions and works exactly as I needed it too."

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.
