Complete AC Installation Services

Everything Included in Your Installation

Your AC installation includes professional system sizing, complete equipment installation, and all necessary electrical connections. We handle permits, inspections, and ensure everything meets local building codes.

You also get thorough testing of your new system before we leave. This means checking refrigerant levels, testing all controls, and making sure your home reaches the temperature you set efficiently and consistently.

Wareham Center homes often need ductwork modifications or electrical upgrades for new AC systems. Having HVAC and electrical expertise in-house means we can handle these requirements without coordinating multiple contractors or extending your timeline.

How long does AC installation typically take in my home?

Most residential AC installations take 6-8 hours for a straightforward replacement of an existing system. If you’re adding central air to a home that didn’t have it before, or if electrical upgrades are needed, the job might extend to a full day or require a second visit. The timeline also depends on whether ductwork modifications are necessary and if permits need inspection before completion. During your initial assessment, you’ll get a clear timeline based on your specific situation so you can plan accordingly.

What size AC unit do I need for my Wareham Center home?

AC sizing depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, window placement, and ceiling height. A unit that’s too small won’t cool effectively, while an oversized unit will cycle on and off frequently, wasting energy and creating humidity problems. Most homes need between 1.5 to 5 tons of cooling capacity, but the only way to know for sure is through a proper load calculation. This assessment considers your home’s specific characteristics and Massachusetts climate conditions to determine the right size for efficient, comfortable cooling.

Do you handle permits and inspections for AC installation?

Yes, all necessary permits and inspections are included in our installation service. Local building codes in Bristol County require permits for most AC installations, especially when electrical work is involved. The process includes pulling the permit, scheduling required inspections, and ensuring everything meets current codes before considering the job complete. This takes the paperwork burden off you and ensures your installation is fully compliant, which protects both your investment and your home’s insurance coverage.

Can you install a new AC system if my home doesn't have existing ductwork?

Absolutely. Adding central air to homes without existing ductwork is a common project in older Wareham Center homes. The process involves designing and installing a complete duct system throughout your home, which typically requires access through basements, crawl spaces, or attics. While more involved than a simple unit replacement, it’s often the best long-term solution for whole-home comfort. Alternative options like ductless mini-split systems are also available if traditional ductwork isn’t feasible for your home’s layout.

What happens if my electrical system needs upgrades for the new AC?

Many older homes need electrical upgrades to safely handle modern AC systems. This might involve installing a new dedicated circuit, upgrading your electrical panel, or ensuring proper grounding. Since we handle both HVAC and electrical work, we can complete these upgrades as part of your AC installation rather than requiring a separate contractor. All electrical work meets current codes and includes proper permits and inspections. You’ll get one coordinated project instead of managing multiple contractors and timelines.

How do I know if I should repair my current AC or replace it?

If your AC is over 10 years old and needs major repairs, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Systems that frequently break down, can’t maintain comfortable temperatures, or cause high energy bills are typically better replaced than repaired. Also consider replacement if your current system uses R-22 refrigerant, which is being phased out and becoming expensive. During our assessment, you’ll get an honest evaluation of your current system’s condition and realistic repair costs versus replacement benefits, so you can make the decision that makes sense for your situation and budget.
