Why it matters

A professional installation makes all the difference

A reliable air conditioner keeps you comfortable and helps maintain indoor air quality. But even the best equipment won't perform if it's sized or installed poorly.

A professional installation makes sure your AC runs efficiently and cools your whole home evenly.

Insulation first?

Your AC can only cool what your home holds onto

If your attic insulation is thin, damaged or full of rodent debris, your new AC has to work harder to keep up. Because we do insulation and HVAC under one roof, we'll tell you honestly whether improving your insulation should come first.

★★★★★
“My house is very old and has many holes that rats can get in. They carefully sealed every possible hole. They replaced the ducts and insulations. After the work, they cleaned the floor to make sure that the grime is gone. He turned on the furnace again and made sure that every duct is working correctly. I am totally satisfied with the work. And the bill comes in the same as the estimation.”

“Attic Crew really saved us! The insulation we had in our house was so ancient, we were using the heater all day and night! After Attic Crew changed our insulation and cleaned our attic, everything became so much better! The house stays cool on the warm days and warm on the cold days.”

“Tommy came over to my house on time and gave very detailed inspections. He went up the attic, walked around and took detailed pictures, went to the garage to find out the routes that the rats taking from outside, and went to the crawl space to check further. He explained to me what to expect, what they cover and gave me a very very reasonable quote (much better than the first company I talked with)!”

Common questions

Air Conditioning Installation FAQ

Central AC or a ductless mini-split?

If your home has good ductwork, central AC or a heat pump is usually the simplest choice. Ductless mini-splits are ideal for homes without ducts, additions and rooms that never get enough air. We'll recommend the best fit.

What size air conditioner do I need?

It depends on your home's size, insulation, windows, sun exposure and ductwork. We assess all of it rather than guessing from square footage.

Should I upgrade my insulation first?

If your attic insulation is thin or damaged, improving it reduces how hard your AC has to work. We'll tell you honestly if it's worth doing.

Do you offer maintenance plans?

Yes. Regular maintenance extends the life of your AC and keeps it running efficiently.
