Professional AC Installation That Makes a Difference

Installing a new air conditioning system is one of the most important investments you'll make in your home. The average AC system lasts 15-20 years, which means the decisions you make today will affect your comfort and energy bills for decades. That's why we take a comprehensive approach to every installation, ensuring your new system is perfectly matched to your home's unique requirements.

Our NATE-certified technicians bring factory training from Armstrong Air, Carrier, and Daikin to every installation. We don't just swap out equipment - we engineer complete comfort solutions that address your home's specific cooling challenges. Whether you're dealing with hot spots in second-story bedrooms, humidity issues that make 78 degrees feel like 85, or astronomical electric bills from an inefficient old system, we have the expertise to solve these problems permanently.

Why Proper Installation Matters More Than You Think

The Department of Energy reports that improper installation can reduce system efficiency by up to 30%. Think about that - nearly a third of your cooling capacity and energy savings lost due to installation shortcuts. We've seen competitors rush through installations, leaving homeowners with systems that never perform as promised. Common installation mistakes we regularly fix include:

Incorrect sizing leads to short cycling or continuous running. An oversized system cools too quickly without removing humidity, leaving your home clammy and uncomfortable. Undersized systems run constantly, driving up electric bills while never achieving set temperatures. We perform detailed Manual J load calculations, considering your home's square footage, insulation levels, window placement, and even tree coverage to determine the perfect system size.
Poor ductwork connections create air leaks that waste cooled air in your attic. We've found homes losing 20-40% of their cooling through leaky ducts - that's like having a window open while your AC runs. Our installation process includes comprehensive duct testing and sealing to ensure every bit of cooled air reaches your living spaces.
Improper refrigerant charging reduces cooling capacity and increases operating costs. Unlike automotive AC systems, home air conditioners require precise refrigerant levels matched to line set length and system specifications. We use digital manifolds and subcooling/superheat calculations to achieve manufacturer-specified charge levels.

Our Comprehensive Installation Process

Initial Consultation and Home Evaluation

Every successful installation starts with understanding your unique needs. When you contact us at our College Station office, we schedule a convenient time for our comfort specialist to visit your home. This isn't a high-pressure sales call - it's an educational consultation where we:

Evaluate your current system to understand what's working and what isn't. We check ductwork condition, insulation levels, and identify comfort issues like hot spots or humidity problems. Many homeowners are surprised to learn their comfort problems stem from issues beyond just old equipment.
Perform professional load calculations using ACCA Manual J standards. We measure your home's square footage, count windows and doors, check insulation levels, and evaluate solar exposure. This scientific approach ensures your new system is sized perfectly - not based on rules of thumb or matching your old equipment.
Discuss your comfort preferences because everyone's ideal environment differs. Some families prefer arctic-cold bedrooms for sleeping, while others want consistent temperatures throughout the home. We factor in your lifestyle, including work-from-home needs, pet comfort, and entertainment habits that affect cooling requirements.
Present equipment options that match your needs and budget. We explain the differences between single-stage, two-stage, and variable-speed systems in plain English. You'll understand SEER ratings, what they mean for your electric bills, and how features like variable-speed blowers improve comfort and air quality.

Equipment Selection and Efficiency Options

Choosing the right air conditioner involves balancing initial cost, operating efficiency, and comfort features. We offer complete systems from Armstrong Air, Carrier, and Daikin, each with unique advantages:

- Two-stage models up to 17 SEER for improved humidity control
- Sound ratings as low as 71 decibels for quiet operation
- Industry-leading warranties with 10-year parts coverage

Professional Installation Day

Installation day runs smoothly because we plan every detail in advance. Our installation team arrives on schedule with all necessary equipment and materials. We understand this is disruptive to your routine, so we work efficiently while maintaining meticulous attention to detail.

System removal and disposal begins with safely recovering refrigerant from your old system. We carefully disconnect electrical connections and remove the indoor and outdoor units without damaging your home. Old equipment is properly recycled according to EPA regulations - we handle all disposal logistics so you don't have to worry about it.
New equipment placement requires precision to ensure optimal performance. Outdoor units need proper clearance for airflow and service access. We install units on reinforced pads or stands, ensuring they're level and secure. Indoor components are positioned for maximum efficiency and minimum noise transmission to living spaces.
Refrigerant line installation connects indoor and outdoor components. We use premium copper tubing, properly sized for your system's capacity. Lines are insulated to prevent energy loss and condensation. We pressure test with nitrogen before releasing refrigerant, ensuring no leaks exist. Proper brazing techniques prevent future failures that plague amateur installations.
Electrical connections must meet code requirements while ensuring safe, reliable operation. We install appropriate disconnects, upgrade breakers if necessary, and verify proper grounding. All wiring is secured and protected from damage. We coordinate with electricians when panel upgrades are needed, managing the entire process for you.

Ductwork Modifications and Airflow Optimization

Your new air conditioner can only perform as well as your ductwork allows. We evaluate and optimize your entire air distribution system:

Duct inspection reveals problems affecting comfort and efficiency. We check for disconnected segments, crushed sections, and inadequate insulation. Many homes have ductwork issues that previous contractors ignored or didn't notice. We document problems with photos and explain necessary corrections.
Sealing and insulation dramatically improve system performance. We seal connections with mastic compound - not just tape that fails over time. Adding insulation to attic ductwork prevents energy loss and condensation problems. These improvements often provide immediate comfort improvements and energy savings.
Return air optimization ensures your system breathes properly. Insufficient return air starves your system, reducing efficiency and causing premature failures. We add returns or increase existing sizes when needed, following ACCA Manual D specifications for proper airflow.
Supply register evaluation identifies rooms not receiving adequate airflow. We may recommend adding registers, resizing existing ones, or installing dampers for better balance. Proper air distribution eliminates hot spots and ensures consistent comfort throughout your home.

Advanced Features and Technology Integration

Modern air conditioning systems offer features that dramatically improve comfort and convenience. We help you understand and maximize these technologies:

Smart Thermostat Integration

Today's smart thermostats do more than adjust temperature - they learn your preferences, adapt to your schedule, and provide detailed energy reports. We install and configure:

Wi-Fi enabled controls allowing adjustment from anywhere. Whether you're coming home early or extending vacation, control your system from your smartphone. Set up alerts for filter changes, maintenance reminders, and system issues.
Learning thermostats that adapt to your routine. These devices learn when you're typically home, asleep, or away, automatically adjusting for comfort and savings. They even factor in weather forecasts to optimize system operation.
Zoning systems providing room-by-room temperature control. Perfect for two-story homes where upstairs and downstairs need different amounts of cooling. Eliminate arguments about thermostat settings while saving energy by only cooling occupied areas.

Indoor Air Quality Enhancements

Your new air conditioning installation presents the perfect opportunity to address indoor air quality. We offer integrated solutions including:

Advanced filtration systems that capture microscopic particles. Our HEPA and electronic air cleaners remove allergens, bacteria, and viruses - crucial for family members with allergies or respiratory conditions.
UV light purification that neutralizes biological contaminants. These systems prevent mold growth on cooling coils while destroying airborne pathogens. Particularly beneficial in our humid climate where mold thrives.
Whole-house dehumidifiers that work with your AC system. Maintaining proper humidity levels improves comfort, prevents mold growth, and allows higher thermostat settings while feeling cooler.
Fresh air ventilation that brings filtered outdoor air inside. Modern homes are sealed tightly for efficiency but can trap stale air and pollutants. Ventilation systems provide fresh air without sacrificing efficiency.

Commercial AC Installation Services

Beyond residential service, we install commercial air conditioning systems up to 25 tons throughout the Brazos Valley. Our commercial installation expertise includes:

Light Commercial Applications

Small businesses, offices, retail stores, and restaurants require reliable cooling to maintain customer comfort and employee productivity. Our commercial installations focus on:

Minimizing business disruption through careful scheduling and efficient installation. We work nights and weekends when necessary, ensuring your business operations continue smoothly.
Rooftop unit expertise for package systems common in commercial buildings. We coordinate crane services, structural evaluations, and roof penetrations while maintaining warranty coverage.
Multi-zone systems serving different areas with varying cooling needs. Restaurants need different temperatures in dining rooms versus kitchens. Offices require individual control for various departments.
Energy management systems that reduce operating costs through scheduling, occupancy sensors, and demand response capabilities. We help businesses qualify for utility rebates and incentive programs.
