Even Cooling Throughout Your Home

Your home should feel comfortable in every room, not just the one closest to the thermostat. When your AC system is properly sized and professionally installed, you get consistent temperatures throughout your house without the hot spots or constant thermostat adjustments.

You’ll notice the difference immediately. No more closing vents in some rooms to force air into others. No more running fans everywhere to move the air around. Just reliable, even cooling that works the way it should.

The right system also means lower energy bills. Properly sized units don’t work overtime trying to cool your home, and quality installation ensures you’re not losing cooled air through poor connections or inadequate sealing.

New AC Unit Installation

Multiple System Options for Every Home

We install several types of cooling systems depending on your home’s needs. Central air conditioning works well for most homes with existing ductwork and provides whole-home cooling through your current vents. Ductless mini-splits are perfect for additions, homes without ducts, or when you want zone control in specific areas.

Heat pumps offer both heating and cooling in one system, making them efficient year-round options for many Bergen County homes. For larger homes or specific situations, packaged HVAC units might be the right choice.

The key is matching the system to your home’s layout, your family’s needs, and your budget. We don’t push one type over another – we recommend what makes sense for your situation and explain why. Every installation includes proper sizing calculations, quality equipment, and thorough testing to ensure everything works as expected.

How do I know what size AC unit I need for my home?

AC sizing depends on much more than just square footage. We calculate the proper size based on your home’s square footage, ceiling height, insulation quality, window exposure, and local climate conditions. An oversized unit will cool quickly but won’t remove humidity properly, leaving your home feeling clammy. An undersized unit will run constantly and struggle to keep up on hot days. We use industry-standard load calculations to determine the exact capacity your home needs, ensuring efficient operation and consistent comfort throughout your space.

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 for whole-home cooling if you already have ducts. Ductless mini-splits use individual indoor units connected to an outdoor compressor, 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 since there’s no duct loss, but the upfront cost is usually higher for cooling an entire home.

How long does AC installation typically take?

Most residential AC installations take one to two days, depending on the complexity of your system and home. A straightforward central air replacement where we’re connecting to existing ductwork usually takes one full day. New installations requiring ductwork modifications, electrical upgrades, or multiple indoor units for ductless systems may take two days. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our initial assessment and keep you updated if anything changes. Weather can occasionally affect outdoor work, but we’ll communicate any delays immediately and work around your schedule as much as possible.

Do you handle permits and inspections for AC installation?

Yes, we handle all necessary permits and coordinate required inspections as part of our installation service. Tenafly requires permits for most HVAC installations, and we’re familiar with local code requirements and inspection processes. We pull permits before starting work and schedule inspections at the appropriate stages. This ensures your installation meets all local codes and maintains your equipment warranties. Some homeowners try to skip permits to save money, but this can create problems when selling your home or filing insurance claims. We include permit costs in our upfront pricing so there are no surprises.

What should I expect during the installation process?

We start by protecting your floors and furniture with drop cloths and shoe covers. If we’re replacing an existing system, we’ll remove the old equipment first and dispose of it properly. Installation involves setting the outdoor unit, connecting refrigerant lines, installing or connecting to ductwork, and setting up the indoor components. We test all connections, check refrigerant levels, and run the system through multiple cycles to ensure proper operation. Before we leave, we’ll walk you through your new system’s controls and answer any questions. We clean up completely and remove all debris and old equipment.

How much does AC installation cost in Tenafly?

AC installation costs vary significantly based on the system type, size, and complexity of your home’s setup. Central air replacement typically ranges from $3,000 to $8,000, while new installations requiring ductwork can cost $5,000 to $12,000 or more. Ductless mini-split systems range from $2,000 to $4,000 per indoor unit. Factors affecting price include equipment efficiency ratings, necessary electrical work, ductwork modifications, and permit fees. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. We don’t give ballpark figures over the phone because every home is different and deserves an accurate assessment.
