Which air conditioning system fits your home?

The right system depends on what the house already has: ductwork, a furnace or boiler, rooms that never cooled properly, or an addition with no ducts at all.

Central air (split system)

A split system has an outdoor condenser and an indoor coil that works with your furnace or air handler. If your home already has ductwork in good shape, replacing central air is usually the simplest path. It’s also the time to look at the indoor equipment, since the outdoor and indoor sides are designed to work as a matched pair.

Ductless mini-splits

Ductless systems put one or more indoor heads in the rooms that need them, connected to a single outdoor unit. They’re a good fit for older shore homes heated by baseboard or radiators, additions, finished attics and sunrooms. We install Mitsubishi Electric ductless systems, which let you set a different temperature in each zone. Not sure which way to go? Our comparison of central AC and ductless mini-splits walks through it.

Heat pumps

A heat pump cools in summer and heats in winter, so replacing your AC can also change how you heat the house. Some homes use a heat pump as the main system. Others pair one with an existing furnace or boiler. If you’re weighing that, see heating installation or read whether a heat pump is right for a Jersey Shore home.

Packaged units for commercial properties

For commercial customers, we install packaged units that hold the condenser, compressor and evaporator in one outdoor cabinet, usually on the roof or a concrete pad.

How we plan an installation

Most problems with a new air conditioner start before the install, when the system was sized from a guess. Here’s what we look at first:

  • The house, not just the square footage. Insulation, windows, sun exposure and layout all change how much cooling a home needs. An oversized system short-cycles and leaves the house clammy. An undersized one runs all afternoon and still can’t keep up.
  • Your ductwork. Leaky or undersized ducts can make a new system perform like an old one. We check the supply and return before recommending equipment.
  • Efficiency. Higher-efficiency equipment uses less electricity to do the same work. We’ll explain the options so you can choose the level that makes sense for how long you plan to stay in the home.
  • Where the outdoor unit goes. Salt air and wind are hard on outdoor equipment near the coast. Placement, clearance and a solid pad all affect how long the unit lasts.
  • Electrical. We confirm the circuit and disconnect are right for the new equipment.

Why fall and winter are a good time to replace your AC

If your air conditioner struggled this summer, you don’t have to wait for it to quit. Replacing it in the off-season gives you time to compare options, get the sizing right and fix duct problems before installation, without a hot house pushing you to take whatever can go in fastest. We explain more in replacing your AC in the fall or winter.

What happens on installation day

  1. We protect the work areas and remove the old equipment.
  2. The new outdoor unit is set and leveled, and the indoor coil or air handler goes in.
  3. Refrigerant lines, drainage and electrical connections are completed.
  4. We start the system, check how it’s running and make sure the thermostat is set up.
  5. Before we leave, we walk you through the new system and answer your questions.

Keep your new system running

A new system still needs regular care. Members of our Service Membership Program get two HVAC maintenance visits a year, heating in the fall and cooling in the spring, plus priority service. See what’s included in AC maintenance. Financing is available; ask about it when we visit.

Frequently asked questions

What size air conditioner do I need?
It depends on the house, not just the square footage. Insulation, windows, sun exposure and ductwork all change the answer, so we size each system after looking at the home rather than from a rule of thumb.
Should I replace my furnace at the same time as my AC?
Not always. The outdoor unit and the indoor coil should be matched, so we look at the age and condition of your furnace or air handler before recommending anything. If it has years left, we’ll tell you.
Is central air or a ductless mini-split better for my home?
If you have good ductwork, central air is usually the simplest choice. If you have rooms without ducts, an addition, or a home heated by baseboard or radiators, ductless is often the better fit. Some homes use both.
Can you install air conditioning in the fall or winter?
Yes. Air conditioners can be installed in cold weather, and the off-season often makes scheduling easier. The refrigerant charge may get a final check once warmer weather arrives.
How much does AC installation cost?
It depends on the type of system, its size and efficiency, and whether ductwork or electrical work is needed. We’ll look at your home and give you an estimate. Call 732-374-9949 to set up a visit.
