New Air Conditioner Installation Considerations
UNIT SIZE
If you have an existing air conditioner that you are replacing, chances are high that a new model comparable in size to your existing unit will work perfectly fine for your home. For those of us who are adding a central ac unit to a home for the first time sizing the unit can seem a bit overwhelming. Nearly all ac contractors will use a method called the “heat-gain calculation” to determine the proper air conditioner size.
Why is size so important?
Firstly, an undersized unit will not properly cool all of the areas of your home. It will cost more to operate on hotter days because it has to run longer than an appropriately sized unit. Oversized units also have drawbacks. For instance a larger compressor costs more money to operate due to increased electricity usage. Larger units also lower hummidity less effectively leaving rooms to feel clamy or damp. Having the experience of installaling new ac unit for over 23 years, our team will make certain that your home sees the perfect size unit installed.
UNIT EFFICIENCY
After the appropriate unit size is determined, the next order of business will be energy effeciency. This is expressed as a SEER or seasonal energy-efficiency rating. The higher the SEER the less it costs to operate a unit. It is generally a good idea to aim for a unit with a SEER score of 13 or higher as those units will have lower operating costs, be of higher quality, and lower voltage requirements.
UNIT TYPE
The next item on the list will be determining the type of system that is right for your home. From packaged systems, to split systems, and mini-ductless systems, the options can seem overwhelming. Fret not, our technicians will help to make this process simply and straightforward narrowing down the system that is right for you.
UNIT PLACEMENT
The last item on our list is determing the proper placement of the AC Unit. If we are simply replacing an old unit, it is likely that we will install the new unit in the same location as the old one. If this is a completely new installation or the current location does not work for you for any reason, we can work with you to find a location the is right for you.

ODD NOISES
Strange noises coming from your home or businesses air conditioner are never a good thing. If your ac unit is making grinding, clicking, banging, or squealing noises it may be on it’s way out. While a high pitched screaming noise may be a sign that your compressor is failing; A clicking or banging sound when the unit is turned on can mean that the fan has come lose or become obstructed by a foreign object like a stick. In any event, odd noises should always be investigated thoroughly. Often times they are a sign with failed component of a unit and can be repaired.
FOUL ODORS
Dealing with odd or foul odors coming from your home or businesses AC vents can be very frustrating to deal with. Musty smells can mean mildew or mold inside the ductwork. Extremely offensive odors can be animals that have found their way into a unit and expired. Burned out wires can also produce offensive smells that should be addressed immediately.

LEAKING
If your AC unit is leaking there are a few common causes. One of the most common issues we see are refrigerant leaks. A refrigerant leak should be taken very seriously as they can pose health risks to you, your family, and your pets.
Condensate lines are another common source of AC leaks. Typically a leaking condensate line means that the line has broken or become blogged. Fast action is your greatest asset in dealing with leaks to prevent mold & mildew growth, and other moisture issues.
SUDDEN LACK OF COOL AIR
There can be several reasons why your air conditioner has stopped producing cool air. From a dirty air filter, to a refrigerant leak, to dirty evaporator coils, there are no shortage of potential causes for the loss of cold air. The best thing you can do is call out a licensed AC installation company in Monroe to diagnose the issue for you.
