Choosing a System
How to Pick the Right Cooling System for Your Space
The right AC depends on your property's size, layout, insulation and existing ductwork. Central air works well for homes with good ducts already in place. Heat pumps make sense if you want efficient cooling and heating in one system. Ductless mini splits are ideal for spaces central air can't reach or homes without ducts. If your current unit runs on R-22 Freon, which is no longer produced, replacement is often the smarter long-term choice. We'll help you compare, and financing through Synchrony is available.

HEATING FAQS
Common Questions About AC Repair & Installation
How do I know if my air conditioner has a Freon leak?
Weak cooling, ice on the lines and a hissing sound near the unit are common signs. A technician can confirm the leak and repair it.
Are ductless mini splits a good option for older homes?
Yes. Ductless mini splits cool individual rooms without ductwork, making them a practical choice for older homes and additions.
Should I repair or replace my air conditioner?
It depends on the unit's age, repair history and refrigerant type. We'll give you a free estimate on both options so you can compare.
