A new system can underperform its own rating without correct sizing. We assess before we recommend.
New AC installs miss their rated SEER2 efficiency more often than people realize, usually from oversizing or a mismatched line set. We follow real numbers, not the easiest install.
What we don't cut corners on.
We size the unit off real measurements taken at your property, not a chart based on square footage.
We lay out a few tiers and the tradeoffs between them.
Our labor is backed on paper, not just a handshake.
The refrigerant lines get sized to what the manufacturer spec sheet actually calls for, not whatever's most convenient to run.
Placement considers where you'll actually hear it.
What a full installation project covers.
A full assessment determines actual cooling demand.
SEER2 ratings get explained in plain terms, not marketing language.
Line sets are sized and insulated to manufacturer spec, avoiding efficiency losses.
Placement is planned, not just wherever's convenient.
Charge, airflow, and temperature split all get verified after install.
Removal follows EPA rules.
Four steps from assessment to cold air.
We book an in-person cooling load assessment.
A tech shows up with assessment equipment.
Options based on real data.
Installation completed and warrantied.
Recent reviews from new system installs.
Our bedroom shares a wall with the neighbor's patio and the old condenser was a constant source of tension. New placement and a quieter unit fixed the relationship, not just the cooling.

Tiny house build with almost no room to spare. They found a mini-split configuration that actually fit our unusual layout.
— C. Vandermolen, tiny house owner
Rescued a litter of kittens that needed a stable temperature nursery room, and they helped us size a small supplemental unit just for that space.
— P. Ekundayo, animal foster volunteer
Home wine cellar addition needed very specific temperature control separate from the rest of the house. They understood the requirements without us having to over-explain.
— M. Dellacroce, homeowner
Converted our garage into a home gym and needed cooling that could handle both the workout heat and the summer sun through the door. They sized it for the actual use case, not just square footage.
— D. Achterberg, home gym owner
