Replacing your air conditioning system can seem like a daunting process\u2014even if you\u2019ve relied on your local HVAC company for regular tune ups and repairs. If your AC is at the tail end of its lifespan, or you\u2019d like to replace it with a more energy efficient unit, you may have questions about the installation process, especially if your AC unit is a rooftop model. The good news is that we have answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installing a new HVAC system is less disruptive than you might think, even if you\u2019ll be installing a new unit during monsoon thunderstorm season in Arizona. To stay ahead of seasonal challenges, check out these AC preparation tips for monsoon<\/a> to make sure you’re ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most importantly, all AC systems are unique, and every installation presents its own set of challenges. Here\u2019s an overview of general guidelines on a typical air conditioning installation. We\u2019ll talk about how to prepare your home inside and outside for AC installation in the second half of this two-part series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plan and Remove Old System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Prior to your new AC installation, the old unit needs to be carefully inspected prior to removal for safety considerations. Bruce\u2019s experienced installers will take care to protect your home, roof, and landscaping from damage along with cleaning up any debris caused by removal. Disposal of your old AC unit will be promptly taken care of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After removal, your installers will perform a complete inspection of your house\u2019s existing cooling infrastructure. Your heating, ventilation, and AC system has parts located both inside and outside your home. Ducts and vents are located above the ceiling and behind walls throughout your home. The technicians will look for air duct leaks, cracks, and overall system effectiveness. It\u2019s also a good opportunity to ensure you’re getting the most from your AC<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Know Your Installation Schedule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An installation can be completed in less than a day, depending on the system purchased, the size, age, and layout of your home. Whether it\u2019s going to be a rooftop or ground level installation, our installers will help determine a specific timeline for the work. If there are no unusual circumstances encountered, installations typically take eight to 16 hours. Learn about common AC components that fail<\/a> to better understand potential complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
