Once you schedule your AC replacement appointment, you may be wondering what will happen during the process. For example, you may wonder what to expect from the technician and whether you should do anything before they arrive. Aire Serv Heating & Air Conditioning will walk you through every step of your HVAC replacement so you can rest easy. Here’s what you can expect when it’s time to replace your heating and cooling system.
Choosing Your Next HVAC System
For your indoor and outdoor units, a technician can help you select a system that is the perfect size based on your home’s square footage. For example, if your previous system had trouble cooling your whole home, a technician may recommend a bigger system to accommodate your home’s size. This recommendation can make installation easy and keeps your home from getting a unit that’s too small or too big.
This is also the time to decide what kind of air conditioner would be the best fit for your home. AC styles will differ in installation cost and energy efficiency. Choosing the system that works for your budget and home size will help you balance your home’s energy efficiency, which will lower your utility costs. Ask your technician what kind of cooling unit would be best for your home’s needs.
Preparing For A Home Installation
Your local technician will have to enter your home to replace your indoor cooling system. If you have any valuable items or large furniture, you can move these items to ensure a quick and easy installation in your home. You should also make sure your pets and kids are out of harm’s way. Installations can be loud and could frighten them.
When the technician arrives, they will lay down cloth or paper to protect your flooring during the installation. They can also cover any heavy furniture around the area to protect it from dust or parts. You can trust that your installer will keep your home clean during your AC replacement.
Installing And Testing Your Professional AC Replacement
Once everything is prepped, your technician can get started on your unit replacement. They’ll start by turning off the old unit and draining out any refrigerant that could be in the system. The technician will remove your old unit and install the new unit in its place.
Now that your new unit is properly installed, your technician won’t leave just yet. They’ll conduct multiple tests to make sure every part is functioning properly. Some steps they could do include:
- Conducting pressure and vacuum tests before adding new refrigerant
- Testing your thermostat for accurate readings and temperature changes
- Checking the ducts for unusual sounds like rattling or flapping
- Checking for uneven airflow in rooms
While they’re conducting these tests, you will be able to see your new system in action. If you have any questions about your new unit, this would be the perfect time to ask. Our technicians would love to help you understand how your new system works and how you can get the most out of it.
