Our installation includes cleanup and disposal of old equipment. You’re not left dealing with the mess or figuring out how to get rid of your old AC unit.

How long does AC installation typically take in Somerset homes?

Most residential AC installations take one full day, though some complex situations might extend into a second day. Factors that affect timing include accessibility of your current equipment, electrical upgrades needed, and ductwork modifications. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during our initial assessment so you can plan accordingly. Somerset’s older homes sometimes present unique challenges that require additional time to address properly, but we’d rather take the extra time to do it right than rush through and create problems later.

What size AC system do I need for my Somerset home?

System sizing depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, window placement, ceiling height, and local climate factors. We perform detailed load calculations rather than guessing based on your old system size. Many Somerset homes have had additions or improvements over the years that change their cooling requirements. An oversized system will cycle on and off frequently, wasting energy and failing to remove humidity properly. An undersized system will run constantly without achieving comfortable temperatures. Proper sizing is one of the most important factors in getting good performance from your new AC.

Should I replace just the outdoor unit or the entire system?

If your indoor and outdoor units are significantly mismatched in age or efficiency, replacing both usually makes more sense. Mixing old and new components often leads to reduced efficiency, shortened equipment life, and potential warranty issues. However, if your indoor unit is relatively new and compatible with modern outdoor units, partial replacement might work. We evaluate your specific situation and explain the pros and cons of each approach. The goal is getting you the best long-term value, not just the cheapest upfront option.

Do you handle electrical upgrades needed for new AC systems?

Yes, we coordinate any electrical work required for your AC installation. Many Somerset homes need electrical upgrades to handle modern, more efficient equipment safely. This might include new circuits, upgraded panels, or proper grounding. We work with licensed electricians to ensure all electrical work meets current codes and safety standards. We handle the coordination so you don’t have to manage multiple contractors or worry about scheduling conflicts. All electrical work is included in your project timeline and estimate upfront.

What maintenance does my new AC system need after installation?

Your new system needs annual professional maintenance to maintain efficiency and warranty coverage. This includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical connections, and testing system operation. You should also change filters regularly – typically every 1-3 months depending on your specific filter type and home conditions. Our Dempsey Comfort Club membership program includes scheduled maintenance visits and priority service if issues arise. Regular maintenance prevents most major problems and keeps your system running efficiently, which saves money on energy bills and extends equipment life.

How do I know if my ductwork needs updates during installation?

We inspect your existing ductwork as part of every installation assessment. Signs that ductwork needs attention include visible damage, poor airflow to certain rooms, excessive dust, or ducts that are undersized for your new system. Somerset homes with older ductwork sometimes have asbestos-wrapped ducts that require special handling. We’ll identify any ductwork issues upfront and explain your options. Sometimes minor repairs or sealing is sufficient, while other situations benefit from partial or complete duct replacement. We give you honest recommendations based on what will actually improve your comfort and system performance.
