What's Included in Your Installation

Your installation includes proper system sizing based on your home’s specific requirements, not just square footage. Our team evaluates your existing ductwork and makes necessary adjustments to make sure optimal airflow throughout your home.

All electrical connections are made to code, permits are pulled when required, and old equipment is removed and disposed of properly. Our team ensures that you don’t have to worry about cleanup or question if we made any compromises.

Bristol County homes often need humidity control along with cooling. The installation includes proper setup for dehumidification so you’re comfortable even on those muggy summer days that are common near the coast.

Most residential AC installations typically take one full day; however, larger homes or more complex installations may require up to two days. The timeline depends on factors like whether ductwork modifications are needed, electrical upgrades required, or if you’re switching from window units to central air. Straightforward replacements where the new system connects to existing ductwork and electrical systems are typically completed in 6–8 hours. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the initial assessment so you can plan accordingly.
System size depends on much more than just square footage. Proper sizing requires calculating your home’s cooling load, which considers insulation levels, window placement, ceiling height, and how many people typically occupy the space. An oversized system cycles on and off too frequently, wasting energy and failing to remove humidity properly. An undersized system runs constantly but never achieves comfortable temperatures. Professional load calculations make sure you get a system that cools efficiently while controlling humidity levels that are especially important in coastal Massachusetts.
Yes, most AC installations in Massachusetts require permits, especially when electrical work is involved or you’re installing a new system rather than replacing an existing one. Local building codes also require inspections to promote safe installation. Licensed contractors handle permit applications and coordinate required inspections as part of the installation process. Attempting installation without proper permits can create problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims, so it’s important to work with contractors who follow local requirements properly.
Existing ductwork often needs attention during AC installation, especially in older Bristol County homes. Signs include uneven cooling, excessive dust, or high energy bills from your previous system. Professional assessment checks for proper sizing, leaks, and adequate return airflow. Sometimes ductwork that worked adequately with an old system isn’t optimal for a new, more efficient unit. Modifications might include sealing leaks, adding return ducts, or resizing supply ducts to match your new system’s airflow requirements for optimal performance.
Professional installation includes complete removal and proper disposal of your old equipment. Refrigerant must be recovered according to EPA regulations—it cannot simply be released into the atmosphere. The metal components are typically recycled, while other materials are disposed of according to local environmental regulations. You shouldn’t have to arrange separate disposal or worry about old equipment sitting in your yard. This removal and disposal is included in professional installation services, not an additional charge you discover later.
Your new AC system is ready to use immediately after installation and final testing. However, there’s typically a brief startup period where we run the system through complete cycles to verify everything operates properly. The startup phase includes checking refrigerant levels, verifying electrical connections, and confirming that all safety controls function correctly. Once this testing is complete—usually within an hour of finishing installation—your system is ready for normal operation. We’ll show you how to operate your new thermostat and answer any questions before leaving.
