Every installation includes proper load calculations to size your system correctly. We handle permits, electrical connections, and ductwork modifications as needed. Your installation meets all California building codes and manufacturer requirements.

Most residential AC installations take 6-8 hours for a complete system replacement. Simple unit swaps can be done in 4-6 hours, while complex installations involving ductwork modifications may take a full day.
The timeline depends on your home’s specific requirements. Older Colonial Village homes sometimes need electrical upgrades or duct modifications that add time to the project.
We’ll give you an accurate timeframe during your free estimate. We work efficiently but never rush installations because proper setup prevents future problems and ensures optimal performance.
Proper sizing requires professional load calculations based on your home’s square footage, insulation, window placement, and local climate conditions. Most Colonial Village homes need between 2-5 tons of cooling capacity.
Oversized units waste energy and don’t remove humidity properly. Undersized systems run constantly and wear out faster. We measure your space and calculate the exact capacity needed for efficient operation.
Our technicians use Manual J load calculations, the industry standard for accurate sizing. This ensures your new system cools effectively without wasting energy or creating hot spots in your home.
Yes, we specialize in ductless mini split installation for Colonial Village homes. These systems work perfectly for older homes without existing ductwork, room additions, or areas that traditional systems can’t reach effectively.
Mini splits offer zone control, letting you cool specific areas without wasting energy on unused spaces. They’re also quieter than traditional systems and don’t require major renovations to install.
We’ll evaluate whether ductless systems fit your needs during the consultation. Many Colonial Village homeowners choose mini splits for their efficiency and flexibility, especially in homes with unique layouts or heating challenges.
