Is it worth it to upgrade to a high-efficiency air conditioner?

In Pasadena, CA? Absolutely. If you use your air conditioner frequently during the summer months, as many locals do, efficiency can be an important consideration. However, unit sizing, installation quality, and your usage habits all play a role in what type of unit you should select, and whether or not efficiency should be a concern. Contact us to get an expert evaluation of your home and a more personalized recommendation!

Will I be able to tell when it is time to replace my AC unit?

Declining efficiency and inconsistent cooling are all signs that your system might be failing or reaching the end of its useful life. Our AC experts know Pasadena homes pretty well, so if you aren’t sure about the age of your system or how it should be performing, we can do a quick diagnostic! If you know your AC is getting older and have concerns about how it will handle another SoCal summer, get your local HVAC company involved early so you can weigh all your options!

When should I schedule my AC installation for?

Spring is generally a good time for installation, before the heat arrives and you’re trying to get your new air conditioner installed quickly for relief from the heat! We also encourage pre-planning your installation rather than waiting for it to fail completely, so you won’t be left without comfort in unsafe temperatures.

Are older homes difficult to equip with new air conditioning equipment?

Not necessarily, but there are different considerations for every type of home. Older Craftsman, Victorian, and Colonial Revival homes have different layouts, insulation , and ductwork that we’ll need to consider when finding the right system upgrade for you.

Should I replace my thermostat when my AC gets replaced?

It isn’t necessarily required, but it might make sense for you! A programmable or smart thermostat that is compatible with your new HVAC system may provide better scheduling and temperature control.

Cooling Comfort - From the Foothills to the Arroyo

Pasadena’s geography changes the way homeowners need HVAC services. Altadena homes and those in El Monte or San Marino may have different elevations or sun exposure, which affects the cooling services they need. Proximity to the foothills is just one of the factors our experts take into consideration when evaluating your home for an AC installation.

For homeowners in Pasadena with older or failing air conditioners, a replacement service could also be a chance to modernize the overall heating and cooling system! Modern units often provide better temperature control and energy efficiency than their predecessors, and pairing a thermostat upgrade with your new AC installation means you’ll be set up for quality cooling performance! Unfortunately, not all HVAC replacements can be planned. Sometimes older equipment just gives up. If your older system finally breaks down and you decide that it is time for a replacement, we’ll be ready with 24-hour customer service to schedule an emergency installation!
With Southern California’s climate, timing is important for any AC installation. Whether you are upgrading for better energy efficiency and control options, or sizing up to accommodate a home addition, we recommend scheduling your replacement service before the heat arrives! Planning ahead gives you time to compare equipment, think about efficiency, address comfort concerns, and book the entire service for a time period that is convenient for you. If you know it is time to get a new air conditioner, we’ll keep you informed about all the options available for your home and be transparent about any models or services we recommend.
