Cost

What affects the price of a new AC

  • Size.Home systems run from about 1.5 to 5 tons, set by the load calculation.
  • Efficiency.Higher SEER2 ratings cost more up front and less to run.
  • AC or heat pump.A heat pump costs more than a straight AC with heat strips, and heats far more efficiently.
  • Access and ductwork.Attic installs and duct repairs add labor. Closet and garage swaps are simpler.

FAQ

Common questions

How long does an AC replacement take?

Most straightforward replacements are done in a day. Ductwork changes or moving the equipment can add time.

What size AC do I need?

A load calculation answers that, based on the house's size, insulation, windows and sun. Rules of thumb based on square footage alone often get it wrong.

Can I replace just the outdoor unit?

Usually not. Outdoor and indoor units are rated as a matched set, and systems on the new refrigerants don't work with older indoor coils. A replacement usually means both.
