AC Installation in Cave Creek AZ

If your system is worn out, costs more every summer, or cannot keep up on a hot afternoon, it may be time for a new one. Cave Creek AC Repair Pros installs and replaces air conditioners across Cave Creek and the surrounding cities.

A new system is a big purchase. How it is installed matters more than the brand on the box.

When To Replace Instead Of Repair

Here is the simple math. Multiply the age of the unit by the repair quote. If the answer is over $5,000, a new system is usually the better buy.

A $600 repair on a six year old unit is $3,600. Fix it. That same $600 repair on a twelve year old unit is $7,200. Start getting quotes.

Replace it if any of these are true:

  • The compressor failed and the unit is over twelve years old
  • The coil is leaking and the system uses older refrigerant
  • You have paid for two repairs in two summers

If it just needs a part, we can handle that. See AC repair in Cave Creek AZ.

What Makes An Install Good

Three things matter more than the brand.

  • Right size. We measure your house. We look at the windows, the insulation, and which walls get the afternoon sun. We do not copy the size off the old unit, because that size was often a guess too.
  • Good ductwork. Attic ducts here sit in 150 degree heat and fall apart at the joints. A new unit bolted to leaking ducts wastes a lot of what you paid for.
  • A careful hookup. We pull the system down to a proper vacuum and weigh in the exact amount of refrigerant. You never see this part, and it is the biggest reason some units fail early.

Permits And Rebates

Replacing a whole system needs a permit. Inside town limits that is the Town of Cave Creek. In Anthem, New River, Desert Hills and Rio Verde it is Maricopa County.

We pull the permit and the cost is in your quote. A bid that is cheap because it skips the permit is not really cheaper. Unpermitted work follows the house and shows up when you sell.

Ask about rebates before you sign. Both APS and SRP offer money back on high efficiency units. We handle the paperwork.

Keep It Running

Book AC maintenance every spring after the first year. In this climate that is the difference between twelve years and eighteen.

AC Installation questions

What size unit do I need?

Whatever the load calculation says. That is a measurement of your actual house, not a guess off the old label. Too big is a real problem here. A unit that is too large cools fast, shuts off, and starts again a few minutes later. All that starting and stopping wears it out early. If a contractor quotes you a size without measuring the house, get another quote.

Do I need a permit to replace my AC?

Yes. Replacing a whole system needs a mechanical permit. Inside town limits that comes from the Town of Cave Creek. In Anthem, New River, Desert Hills and Rio Verde it comes from Maricopa County. Pulling the permit is our job, not yours, and the cost is already in the quote.

Is a higher efficiency unit worth the money?

Usually, yes, and more here than in most states. Our units run so many hours that the savings add up fast. Ask us to run the numbers against your actual APS or SRP bill rather than a general estimate.
