First, let\u2019s start by saying we totally understand the\ntemptation to install your own air conditioner. It will save you money, after\nall, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, unless it\u2019s a window AC unit or a portable air conditioner, we really do have to advise against this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thing is, there are intricate steps to successfully installing an air conditioning system, and if any of the steps are missed or done to quickly, it can lead to problems like a refrigerant leak, inefficient operation, and even a premature system breakdown. Overall, air conditioners are very complex and require a trained and experienced professional to handle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, if you\u2019re shopping for an air conditioner now, <\/em>when temperatures are already\nrising, we understand the sense of urgency. Rushing into a large purchase like\nthis can leave you sacrificing comfort and\n<\/em>efficiency. Keep reading as we outline a few of the main reasons you should\nonly trust a trained professional for this job. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll Effectively Remove the Old System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat?\u201d you might be thinking, \u201cI can\u2019t just take out the\nold system and take it to the dump?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your old air conditioner has a number of components that have\nto be properly disposed of to remain safe, like refrigerant (this is especially\ntrue if you\u2019re still using R-22 refrigerant, which has now been phased out due\nto its harmful impact on the environment). Our trained and experienced\nprofessionals know how to manage this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also worth noting that even for professionals removing\nan old air conditioner can be the most laborious and longest part of an air\nconditioner installation. Special attention needs to be given to ensure nothing\nis knocked out of place, and the area in your home needs to be prepared for the\nnew air conditioner\u2014both the outdoor unit and indoor unit (or units, in the\ncase of a ductless system). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll Make Mistake-Free Connections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once your air conditioner is installed where you need it to\nbe, our pros will connect it to the important components needed for its\noperation. The main component we\u2019ll have to connect is the ductwork, a.k.a your\nventilation system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, air ducts need to be shifted around in order to\nmake these connections properly. Our professionals know how to do this without\ndamaging any components in the process. The same goes for the electrical\nconnections needed for your air conditioner to actually function. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll Test Your Air Conditioner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is the final, but most important, step in a\nprofessional air conditioner installation. If our team members left your home\nafter making the last connection, without testing your system to ensure that it\nactually works, then you\u2019d have no idea what to expect. You also might not know\nif there\u2019s anything wrong <\/em>with your\nsystem due to poor installation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before our team leaves, we\u2019ll turn your cooling system on, measuring the intake and the airflow, to ensure that operation is sufficient. We\u2019ll check for other factors too, like ensuring there aren\u2019t any safety hazards and that the system is doing everything it’s supposed to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
