Upgrade Your Air Conditioner with Tom’s Heating Service

During the hot summer months, a large portion of your energy bill comes from powering your air conditioner. As your air conditioning system gets older, it becomes less efficient and may not cool your home as well or as quickly as it used to.

If your unit is over 15 years old, it may still be using R-22 (Freon), which is expensive to maintain due to strict regulations. In this case, the experts at Tom’s Heating Service may recommend replacing it with a more energy-efficient model.

Our Technicians Properly Size and Install Air Conditioners

For air conditioning installation in your Waukesha-area home, Tom’s Heating experts consider factors such as your home’s size and your comfort needs to determine the right system. Properly sized cooling equipment maximizes energy efficiency.

After installation, we’ll thoroughly clean up and explain how your new system works, so you can take full advantage of its features and optimize efficiency. We encourage our customers to reach out with any follow-up questions and are always available to assist.

AC Installation FAQ

How long do AC units last?

There are a few factors to consider. Air conditioner units vary in performance, and homeowners may have different views on what constitutes a broken unit. However, with proper annual maintenance, a new high-efficiency central air conditioning system can typically last 10 to 15 years.

Which is the best place to put an outdoor AC unit?

Units should be installed in a dry, flat, safe, and well-ventilated area. While some may want to hide the unit for aesthetic reasons, placing it too close to bushes, fencing, or in dusty areas (like near a driveway) can hinder proper ventilation and reduce efficiency.

Can you add AC to an existing furnace?

Most forced-air furnaces have the capability of adding a central air conditioning system. Your heating and cooling expert will be able to assess your current system and offer a solution that will work efficiently to cool your home.

Is it cheaper to install an air conditioner in winter?

It’s a common misconception that it’s cheaper to replace your air conditioner (AC) in the winter. A system can be installed in winter, as long as the temperatures are not too extreme, however, the system cannot be tested until the following cooling season.

How long does it take to install central AC in a house?

On average, installing a new central air conditioning system takes about 4 to 8 hours. The installation team will need access to both the interior and exterior of your home. If you’re installing both a furnace and AC at the same time, the job could take more than one day. The experts at Tom’s Heating Service will work with you to schedule a day (or days) and time that is convenient for you.
