Depending on the size of your home, it can take 2 to 4 hours to install a new AC unit. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to contact a local HVAC contractor for an in-home consultation. Energy efficient AC units are becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to save homeowners money on their energy bills. In order to qualify for the Energy Star certification, an AC unit must meet certain efficiency requirements. Installing an energy efficient AC unit can help you save up to 30% on cooling costs.
Depending on the size of your home, it will generally take 1-2 days to install a new AC unit. However, if you choose an energy efficient unit, there may be some additional work that needs to be done in order to ensure that the unit is properly installed and functioning at peak efficiency. This could add an extra day or two onto the installation process. Speak with your local HVAC technician for more information.
