The Reality of Cooling in Central Texas

In areas like Leander and the surrounding Central Texas region, an air conditioner is not a luxury; it is a critical piece of infrastructure. Summer temperatures frequently exceed 90°F and often push past the triple-digit mark. High humidity in late spring and throughout the summer adds a significant latent heat load that your system must manage. When a unit fails here, it is rarely a minor inconvenience—it is an emergency.

We understand that you are likely looking for a solution because your current system has either failed completely or is costing you a fortune to operate while failing to cool the home. Our approach focuses on removing the stress from this situation by handling every aspect of the replacement process, from the initial load calculation to the final permitting inspection.

What You Get With A Modern Installation

Replacing an HVAC system involves more than swapping one metal box for another. Modern cooling technology has advanced significantly in the last decade. A new installation provides immediate tangible benefits regarding airflow, humidity control, and electrical consumption.

• Improved Dehumidification: New systems, particularly two-stage and variable-speed units, are designed to run longer at lower speeds. This allows the system to pull more moisture out of the air, which is essential for comfort in our humid climate.
• Higher SEER2 Ratings: The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) standards have changed. Installing a new unit today means you are getting equipment that uses significantly less electricity to produce the same amount of cooling, directly impacting your monthly utility bills.
• Smart Home Integration: We install systems that integrate seamlessly with smart thermostats. This allows you to control your home’s climate from your phone, set schedules that align with your lifestyle, and monitor energy usage in real-time.
• Quiet Operation: Modern compressor technology and fan blade designs have drastically reduced the noise levels of outdoor condensing units. You get the cooling you need without the roaring mechanical noise in your backyard.

How Our AC Installation Process Works

A proper installation is the single most important factor in the longevity of your air conditioner. Even the most expensive equipment will fail prematurely if it is installed incorrectly. We follow a strict, standardized protocol to ensure your system performs exactly as the manufacturer intended.

• First, our technicians perform a Manual J load calculation. This engineering calculation determines exactly how much cooling power your specific home requires based on square footage, insulation levels, window orientation, and local climate data. This prevents "short cycling" (caused by oversized units) and inadequate cooling (caused by undersized units).
• Next, we prepare the site and protect your property. We use drop cloths and shoe covers to ensure your home stays clean. We safely disconnect the electricity and carefully recover any remaining refrigerant from your old system in accordance with EPA regulations.
• Then, we remove the old equipment and inspect the existing ductwork and transition points. If the plenum or return drops require modification to fit the new, more efficient equipment, we fabricate these changes on-site to ensure an airtight seal.
• Following the mechanical setup, we install the new condensing unit and evaporator coil. We braze the refrigerant lines using nitrogen purging to prevent oxidation inside the copper, a critical step often skipped by budget installers that prevents future compressor failure.
• After connection, we pull a deep vacuum on the lines to remove all moisture and non-condensables. We then release the refrigerant and fine-tune the charge using subcooling and superheat methods to ensure peak efficiency.
• Finally, we test the system across all modes of operation, program the thermostat, and walk you through the new features of your system. We do not leave until we have verified that the temperature drop across the coil is within the correct range.

When to Replace Your AC: Decision Criteria

Deciding between another repair bill and a full replacement is often a numbers game. In Leander and nearby cities, where systems run heavily for six to eight months of the year, wear and tear accumulates faster than in cooler climates.

• System Age: If your air conditioner is over 10 to 15 years old, it is nearing the end of its useful life. Even if it is currently running, the efficiency loss means you are paying more for cooling every month than you would with a modern system.
• The 50% Rule: If the cost of a necessary repair approaches 50% of the value of the system (or the cost of a new unit), replacement is the more financially sound option.
• Refrigerant Type: If your older system relies on R-22 (Freon), repairs involving refrigerant leaks are exorbitantly expensive because this chemical is no longer produced. Upgrading to a system that uses R-410A or newer refrigerants is inevitable.
• Frequent Breakdowns: If you have required multiple service calls in the last two seasons, the system is becoming unreliable. The cost of cumulative repairs often exceeds the monthly payment of a financed new system.
• Hot and Cold Spots: As compressors wear out and blower motors lose torque, they fail to push air effectively to the furthest rooms in the house. If some rooms are freezing while others remain hot, the system is no longer capable of balancing the load.
  

When you select Airsheen Services LLC for your replacement, we help you evaluate these factors objectively so you can make the decision that yields the best return on investment for your home.

Navigating Local Codes and Installation Requirements

Installation in Central Texas requires adherence to specific municipal and state codes. These regulations are in place to ensure safety, energy efficiency, and proper electrical grounding. Ignoring these requirements can lead to fines, problems with selling your home in the future, or voided homeowner's insurance claims in the event of an electrical fire.

• Permitting: Most local municipalities, including the City of Leander, require a mechanical permit for AC replacement. We handle the entire permitting process on your behalf, filing the paperwork and scheduling the required city inspection to verify the work meets code.
• Electrical Disconnects and Wiring: Codes often update regarding the placement of electrical disconnect boxes and the gauge of wire used for outdoor units. We verify that your electrical service is sufficient for the new unit and upgrade the disconnect box and whip (the conduit connecting the box to the unit) to meet current safety standards.
• Condensate Management: Because our region deals with high humidity, AC units produce a massive amount of condensate water. Local codes require specific primary and secondary drain lines, as well as safety float switches that shut the unit off if a clog occurs, preventing water damage to your ceilings or floors.
• HOA Restrictions: Many communities in our service area have Homeowners Association guidelines regarding the visibility and noise levels of outdoor units. We are experienced in working within these guidelines, ensuring your new unit is placed correctly or screened as required.
• Rebate Eligibility: Utility companies often offer rebates for installing high-efficiency systems. These rebates usually require specific SEER2 ratings and professional installation by a licensed contractor. We provide the documentation necessary for you to claim any available utility or manufacturer rebates.
