What to Expect From Modern Air Conditioning Installation

Investing in a new air conditioning system is one of the most significant decisions a homeowner makes regarding their property's infrastructure. In areas like Tarrytown, where summer temperatures frequently exceed 90°F, a new installation is not merely about comfort; it is about safety and humidity control. When you choose professional installation, you are purchasing a comprehensive service that includes the removal of the old equipment, an analysis of your current ductwork, and the integration of a high-efficiency unit designed to handle the specific heat load of your home.

Modern AC installation involves a transition from outdated R-22 refrigerant systems to environmentally friendly, high-efficiency R-410A or newer refrigerant systems. This switch requires specific technical handling to ensure the new unit operates at its rated efficiency. Homeowners can expect a detailed assessment of their indoor air quality needs as well. New systems are often paired with advanced filtration and humidity control features that older units simply could not support — check our specials for current offers.

The timeline for an installation is designed to be as non-intrusive as possible. While the technical work is complex, the goal is to restore cooling to the home immediately. This process includes protecting your flooring, ensuring electrical safety, and calibrating the thermostat to communicate effectively with the new hardware. Airsheen Services LLC ensures that every aspect of the project is handled with precision, leaving you with a system that operates quietly and reliably from the moment it is powered on.

The Step-by-Step System Replacement Process

A proper installation is a rigorous process that adheres to manufacturer specifications and local building codes. Skipping steps or rushing the process can reduce the lifespan of the unit and void warranties — join our maintenance plan for ongoing care. We utilize a systematic approach to ensure every component functions correctly.

•  Load Calculation and Sizing

Before any equipment is ordered, technicians perform a Manual J load calculation. This engineering calculation determines exactly how much cooling power your home requires based on square footage, insulation levels, window orientation, and local climate data. Installing a unit that is too large results in short-cycling, while a unit that is too small will run continuously without cooling the space.

•  Site Preparation and Protection

Technicians arrive and prepare the workspace. This involves laying down drop cloths to protect flooring and clearing the area around the indoor air handler and outdoor condenser. Safety disconnects are turned off, and the electrical supply is verified to be zero before work begins.

•  Refrigerant Recovery and Disposal

The old unit cannot simply be unplugged. Technicians must use specialized recovery machines to capture the old refrigerant in compliance with EPA regulations. Once the lines are cleared, the old condenser and evaporator coil are disconnected and removed from the property for proper recycling.

•  Equipment Positioning and Connection

The new indoor evaporator coil and air handler are set in place, ensuring a tight seal with the existing plenum to prevent air leaks. Outside, the condenser is placed on a leveled pad to minimize vibration. Technicians then braze the copper refrigerant lines, flowing nitrogen through the lines during the process to prevent oxidation and future blockages.

•  Electrical and Drainage Integration

High-voltage wiring is connected to the disconnect box, and low-voltage control wiring is attached to the thermostat. A new condensate drain line is installed, often with a safety float switch that automatically shuts off the system if a clog is detected, preventing water damage to the home.

•  Vacuum and Charge

A deep vacuum is pulled on the refrigerant lines to remove moisture and non-condensables. This is a critical step; any moisture left in the lines can turn into acid and destroy the compressor. Once the vacuum holds, the system is charged with the precise amount of refrigerant required by the manufacturer.

•  System Testing and Commissioning

The system is powered on, and technicians measure static pressure, airflow, and temperature splits (the difference in temperature between supply and return air). This verifies that the system is performing at its rated capacity. The thermostat is programmed, and the homeowner is walked through the operation of the new system.

Deciding When to Replace vs. Repair Your Cooling System

Determining whether to sink more money into an existing system or invest in a replacement is a common dilemma. While repairs can resolve immediate issues, they often act as a temporary bandage on a system that is reaching the end of its useful life. Making the right financial decision requires analyzing the age of the unit, the cost of the repair, and the potential energy savings of a new system.

‍

•  System Age and R-22 Availability

Air conditioners in Texas typically last between 10 and 15 years due to the heavy workload required by the climate. If your unit is over 10 years old and requires a major repair, replacement is strongly recommended. Additionally, if your older unit utilizes R-22 (Freon), repair costs will be astronomical due to the phase-out of this refrigerant. Upgrading allows you to use current, affordable refrigerants.

•  Frequency of Breakdowns

If you have called for repairs more than once in the last two seasons, the system is becoming unreliable. Frequent breakdowns indicate that internal components are wearing out simultaneously. Continuing to repair a "lemon" often costs more in the long run than the monthly payments on a financed new installation.

•  Rising Energy Bills

As AC units age, their SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) degrades. An older unit may be rated at 10 SEER, whereas modern units start at 14 or 15 SEER2 and go much higher. Replacing a 10 SEER unit with a 16 SEER unit can result in significant reductions in monthly electricity bills, helping the new system pay for itself over time.

Local Installation Factors: Permits, Utilities, and Climate

Installing air conditioning in this region requires knowledge of specific local challenges. The climate here is characterized by high heat combined with significant humidity. This means your installation must prioritize humidity removal just as much as temperature reduction. Standard sizing charts often fail to account for the specific latent heat load found in the Tarrytown area, which is why local expertise is vital.

•  Permitting and Code Compliance

New installations generally require a permit from the local municipality to ensure the work meets safety standards. This includes verifying that the electrical circuit is sized correctly for the new unit and that the breaker box is up to code. Professional installers handle the permitting process, scheduling the required inspections to ensure the homeowner is not liable for unpermitted work during a future home sale.

•  Ductwork Integrity

In many local homes, ductwork runs through unconditioned attics where temperatures can soar. If the ductwork is old, leaking, or poorly insulated, a new high-efficiency AC will struggle to perform. Part of the installation process involves inspecting these ducts to ensure you get the efficiency you are paying for.

•  Utility Rebates and Incentives

Local utility providers often offer rebates for upgrading to high-efficiency systems. These programs typically require the installation to be performed by a licensed contractor who can provide the necessary AHRI (Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute) certificate. Leveraging these rebates can significantly offset the initial investment cost.

Securing Long-Term Comfort and Efficiency

Choosing the right partner for your air conditioning installation ensures that your investment is protected. We focus on technical accuracy and customer transparency. Unlike general contractors, we specialize in the specific thermodynamics required to cool homes effectively in the Texas heat.
