Every installation includes proper electrical connections, refrigerant lines, and drainage systems. We don’t skip steps that cause problems later.
Swanston Estates homes often benefit from mini split systems for room-specific cooling. These ductless units work perfectly for additions, converted garages, or homes without existing ductwork.
California’s energy efficiency requirements mean your new system needs proper installation to qualify for rebates. We ensure everything meets state standards and help you claim available incentives.
Most residential AC installations take one full day for standard units. Mini split installations can often be completed in 4-6 hours depending on the number of indoor units.
Complex installations involving new electrical panels or extensive ductwork modifications may require two days. We’ll give you an accurate timeline during the initial assessment.
Weather delays are rare in California, but we always confirm installation dates 24 hours in advance to avoid any surprises.
AC sizing depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, window placement, and local climate factors. We perform load calculations to determine exact requirements.
Oversized units cycle on and off too frequently, wasting energy and failing to remove humidity properly. Undersized units run constantly and never reach comfortable temperatures.
California homes typically need 20-25 BTUs per square foot, but factors like high ceilings, large windows, or poor insulation can increase requirements significantly.
Yes, we pull all necessary permits and schedule required inspections. California requires permits for most AC installations to ensure safety and energy compliance.
The permit process typically takes 3-5 business days in most California cities. We handle all paperwork and coordinate with local building departments.
Skipping permits can cause problems when selling your home or filing insurance claims. We ensure everything is properly documented and approved.
Mini splits provide zone-specific cooling without requiring ductwork. Each indoor unit operates independently, allowing different temperatures in different rooms.
Central AC systems cool the entire home through existing ductwork. They’re more efficient for homes that already have ducts and need whole-house cooling.
Mini splits work well for home additions, converted spaces, or homes without existing ductwork. They’re also more energy efficient when you only need to cool specific areas.
Standard central AC installation typically ranges from $3,500 to $7,500 depending on system size and complexity. Mini split systems start around $2,500 for single-zone units.
Costs include equipment, labor, permits, and basic electrical connections. Additional electrical work, ductwork modifications, or complex installations increase the total price.
We provide written estimates that break down all costs upfront. No surprise charges or hidden fees after work begins.
Fall and winter offer the best pricing and fastest scheduling since demand is lower. You’ll also have time to research options without the pressure of immediate cooling needs.
Spring installations work well but require earlier scheduling as demand increases. Summer installations are possible but may involve longer wait times and premium pricing.
Emergency replacements during peak summer heat cost more and limit your equipment options. Planning ahead saves money and ensures you get the system you actually want.
