Professional AC Installation Process

Straightforward Installation, No Surprises

Every air conditioning installation starts with properly sizing your system. Our technicians calculate your home’s cooling load based on square footage, insulation, windows, and local climate factors. This ensures you get a system that cools effectively without wasting energy.

Installation day involves removing your old equipment, setting the new outdoor unit on a proper pad, and connecting refrigerant lines with precise attention to sealing and insulation. Indoor components get mounted securely, electrical connections are made to code, and the system is thoroughly tested.

Before leaving, we walk you through system operation, explain your warranty coverage, and make sure you’re comfortable with the new controls. The installation is complete when your home is cooling evenly and efficiently, not when the equipment is simply connected.

Complete AC Replacement Services

Everything Included for Proper Installation

Your AC installation includes proper load calculations, equipment sizing, professional installation, and complete system commissioning. All refrigerant lines are properly insulated, electrical connections meet local codes, and the system is tested for optimal performance.

Milton homes often need specific considerations for older electrical panels or existing ductwork modifications. Our team handles permits when required and ensures installations meet all Massachusetts building codes and manufacturer specifications.

You also get warranty protection on both equipment and installation work, plus access to the Dempsey Comfort Club for ongoing maintenance and priority service. This comprehensive approach means your new AC system provides reliable cooling for years, not just the first season.

How long does AC installation typically take in Milton homes?

Most residential air conditioning installations take 6-8 hours for a straightforward replacement, though this can extend to a full day or more depending on your home’s specific requirements. Factors that affect timing include accessibility of the installation location, electrical upgrades needed, ductwork modifications, and permit requirements. Milton’s mix of older and newer homes means some installations require additional time for electrical panel upgrades or ductwork adjustments. We provide realistic timeframes upfront and keep you informed throughout the process, ensuring the installation is completed properly rather than rushed.

What size AC unit do I need for my Milton home?

Proper AC sizing requires a detailed load calculation that considers your home’s square footage, insulation levels, window types, ceiling heights, and local climate factors. Many Milton homes need between 2-5 tons of cooling capacity, but this varies significantly based on individual characteristics. Oversized units cycle on and off too frequently, wasting energy and failing to remove humidity effectively. Undersized systems run constantly without achieving comfortable temperatures. Our professional technicians perform Manual J load calculations to determine the exact capacity needed, ensuring your new system cools efficiently without oversizing or undersizing issues that lead to comfort problems and higher utility bills.

Do I need permits for AC installation in Milton, MA?

Permit requirements depend on the scope of work involved in your installation. Straight equipment replacements using existing electrical and refrigerant connections typically don’t require permits, while new installations or those requiring electrical upgrades usually do. Milton follows Massachusetts state codes, which require permits for new electrical circuits, significant ductwork modifications, or installations in new locations. We handle permit applications when needed and ensure all work meets local code requirements. This protects you from potential issues during home sales or insurance claims, and ensures the installation meets safety standards for refrigerant handling and electrical connections.

Should I replace my furnace when installing new AC?

Replacing both systems together often makes financial sense, especially if your furnace is over 15 years old or showing signs of wear. Combined installations reduce labor costs since our technicians are already working on your HVAC system, and newer systems are designed to work together for optimal efficiency. However, if your existing furnace is relatively new and functioning well, AC-only replacement is perfectly viable. The decision depends on your furnace’s age, condition, efficiency rating, and whether you’re experiencing heating issues. We provide professional assessment of both systems to help determine the most cost-effective approach for your specific situation, considering both immediate costs and long-term energy savings.

How do I maintain my new AC system after installation?

Regular maintenance keeps your new AC system running efficiently and extends its lifespan significantly. Change air filters every 1-3 months depending on usage and filter type, keep the outdoor unit clear of debris and vegetation, and schedule annual professional maintenance before cooling season begins. Professional maintenance includes refrigerant level checks, electrical connection inspection, coil cleaning, and system performance testing. Many homeowners join maintenance programs like the Dempsey Comfort Club for scheduled service reminders and priority scheduling. Proper maintenance prevents most common AC problems, maintains warranty coverage, and ensures your system operates at peak efficiency throughout its lifespan, saving money on energy costs and preventing premature replacement.

What warranty coverage comes with professional AC installation?

AC installation warranties typically include both equipment warranties from the manufacturer and installation labor warranties from the contractor. Equipment warranties usually cover parts for 5-10 years depending on the brand and model, while some components like compressors may have extended coverage. Installation labor warranties cover workmanship issues for 1-2 years after completion. Proper installation by licensed technicians is essential for maintaining manufacturer warranty coverage, as improper installation can void equipment warranties entirely. Keep all warranty documentation and maintenance records, as manufacturers may require proof of professional installation and regular maintenance for warranty claims. We ensure installations meet all manufacturer requirements to preserve full warranty protection.
