Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a new HVAC installation take?
Standard residential AC or heat pump installations take 6-10 hours and complete in one day. Full system replacements (AC + furnace + ductwork) run 1-2 days. For new construction or zoned multi-system installs, plan for 2-4 days. We provide a clear timeline at the time of quote.
How much does a new HVAC system cost in 2026?
A new central AC ranges from $4,500 to $9,000 installed, depending on size and efficiency. Heat pumps run $5,500-12,000. Full system replacement (AC + furnace) is $8,000-16,000. Variable-speed and high-SEER systems run higher; we provide a flat-rate quote with all options.
What HVAC system size do I need for my home?
Sizing follows Manual J load calculations — typically 1 ton (12,000 BTU) per 500-600 sq ft, adjusted for climate, insulation, windows, and ceiling height. Undersized units run constantly and burn out early; oversized ones short-cycle. We do free Manual J calcs on every install quote.
Do you offer financing on new HVAC systems?
Yes. We offer 0% intro APR financing for qualified buyers, plus longer-term plans at competitive rates. We also help apply for federal tax credits (up to $2,000 on heat pumps) and local utility rebates that can reduce out-of-pocket cost by $2,000-5,000.
