What Proper Installation Gets You

Your home stays consistently cool without the energy bills that make you cringe. No more hot spots in the bedrooms or that one room that never quite gets comfortable.

When your AC system is properly sized and installed, it runs efficiently instead of constantly cycling on and off. That means lower monthly costs and equipment that lasts longer because it’s not working overtime to keep up.

You get peace of mind knowing your cooling system won’t leave you sweating through the next heat wave. Professional installation means fewer service calls, better warranty coverage, and a system that actually matches your home’s specific needs.

Hackensack HVAC Installation Experts

We Size Systems Right

Super Plumbing Heating & Cooling LLC has been handling air conditioning installation throughout Bergen County for years. We know what works in Hackensack homes and what doesn’t.

Most AC problems start with improper sizing or rushed installation. We take the time to calculate your home’s actual cooling load instead of guessing based on square footage alone.

Our team understands local building codes, permit requirements, and the specific challenges that come with Bergen County’s mix of older and newer homes.

Home AC Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Installation

We start with a detailed consultation at your home to assess your current system, ductwork, and cooling needs. This isn’t a quick walkthrough – we’re measuring, checking insulation, and calculating the right system size for your specific situation.

Once we’ve determined the best AC system type and size, we provide a detailed estimate that covers equipment, installation, permits, and any necessary electrical work. No surprise costs later.

Installation day involves careful removal of your old equipment, clean installation of your new system, and thorough testing to ensure everything operates correctly. We walk you through the new system’s operation and answer any questions before we consider the job complete.

Cooling System Installation Options

Systems We Install

Central air conditioning works well for most Hackensack homes with existing ductwork. We install high-efficiency units that provide whole-home cooling with consistent temperatures throughout.

Ductless mini-split systems are perfect for homes without existing ducts, room additions, or when you want zone control. These systems let you cool specific areas without wasting energy on unused spaces.

Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling, making them an efficient choice for year-round comfort. They work particularly well in our climate and can significantly reduce energy costs compared to separate heating and cooling systems.

How do you determine the right size AC unit for my home?

We perform a detailed load calculation that considers your home’s square footage, insulation levels, window placement, ceiling height, and local climate conditions. This is different from the quick “rules of thumb” that many contractors use. An oversized unit will cycle on and off frequently, wasting energy and creating humidity problems. An undersized unit will run constantly and never quite keep up. Our calculation ensures you get a system that matches your home’s actual cooling needs, which means better comfort and lower operating costs.

What's the difference between central air and ductless mini-splits?

Central air conditioning uses your existing ductwork to distribute cool air throughout your home from a single outdoor unit. It’s typically the most cost-effective option if you already have ducts in good condition. Ductless mini-splits use individual indoor units connected to an outdoor condenser, with no ductwork required. They’re ideal for homes without existing ducts, room additions, or when you want independent temperature control in different areas. Mini-splits are often more energy-efficient because there’s no duct loss, but the upfront cost is usually higher for whole-home coverage.

How long does AC installation typically take?

Most residential AC installations take one to two days, depending on the complexity of your setup. A straightforward central air replacement where we’re using existing ductwork and electrical connections usually takes one full day. If we need to install new ductwork, upgrade electrical service, or handle multiple ductless units, it might extend to two days. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our initial consultation so you can plan accordingly. We also make sure to minimize disruption to your daily routine and clean up thoroughly each day.

What should I expect to pay for new AC installation?

AC installation costs vary significantly based on the system type, size, and complexity of your installation. Central air systems typically range from $3,000 to $8,000 installed, while ductless mini-splits can range from $2,000 for a single zone to $10,000+ for whole-home coverage. Heat pumps fall in a similar range to central air. The final cost depends on your home’s specific requirements, any necessary electrical upgrades, and the efficiency level you choose. We provide detailed written estimates that break down equipment and labor costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Do you handle permits and inspections for AC installation?

Yes, we handle all necessary permits and coordinate inspections as required by Hackensack and Bergen County regulations. HVAC installations typically require permits to ensure the work meets local building codes and safety standards. We’re familiar with local requirements and have established relationships with municipal offices, which helps streamline the process. The permit costs are included in our estimates, and we schedule any required inspections so you don’t have to worry about the administrative details. This also ensures your installation is completely compliant and won’t cause issues if you sell your home later.

What warranty coverage comes with new AC installation?

You get manufacturer warranty coverage on the equipment itself, which typically ranges from 5 to 12 years depending on the brand and model. We also provide warranty coverage on our installation workmanship, typically for one year from completion. This covers any issues related to our installation work, not normal wear and tear on the equipment. We’ll explain the specific warranty terms for your chosen system during our consultation. Many manufacturers also offer extended warranty options for additional coverage. If you have any warranty issues, we handle the claims process and coordinate repairs so you don’t have to deal with manufacturer bureaucracy.
