Removal
When we arrive to install your new air conditioner, the first step is going to be removing all of your old AC components. We will place drop cloths around your home to ensure that we don’t make a mess on your floors. Then we will begin taking apart your air conditioner and removing it from your home.
Prep Work
After removing your old system, we will begin preparing for your new one. First, we will check all of your existing connections to ensure that they are secure and up to code. We want to make sure that your new air conditioner has the most potential for a long life span and great energy efficiency.

Installation
Then begins the installation of your brand-new air conditioner. We will replace your indoor and outdoor units and connect your air conditioner to your home’s energy source. We will charge your refrigerant, pressurize the system, and do lots of testing to make sure your new air conditioner is working great. Honestly, the testing process can be the longest and most tedious part. That’s because we want to make sure the installation job is done right. How your air conditioner gets installed can have a huge impact on how efficient it is over its entire lifespan.
