"I would highly recommend this company, they did a great job and if I had questions or problems they were right there and took care of it quickly, at first I was only going to get a furnace but the sales person who came out said it would not cost much more for air so I went with that and don't regret it since we were using window units which was a pain every year, I am enjoying my furnace through the winter and enjoying this air as it gets hotter, thanks Hamilton! I will be calling soon to get pricing on something else I need done "

At Paschal there is a single statement that we live by every day. “Professional People. Professional Service.” Being a professional is more than just earning a living through an occupation. Professionalism involves consistently achieving high standards, both visibly and “behind the scenes” – whatever your role or profession. Professionalism is a powerful quality. It allows you to fulfill your role to the best of your ability. It helps you to impress and inspire others. And it gives you a deep sense of satisfaction and self-worth. What’s more, professionalism is something that everyone can aspire to from day one of their career. A Paschal Professional gives 150% every day. They go above and beyond what needs to be done. They have pride & satisfaction in every project they tackle.

"Installed my elderly grandmother Norma's HVAC 6 years ago. Recently A coil was icing up. She was told she'd need a new A coil (not cleaning first). A-Coil was covered under 10 year warranty but not labor. They quoted her 2900 to install the new A-Coil. I checked with multiple other HVAC firms, and the labor to install this part and the refridgerant was on the order of 900-1000. This firm gouged my elderly grandmother. They didn't send her an itemized bill, so I think they just have a set price that includes the part. They took her money and there has been no effort by them to make this right. Watch out, they'll do this to you too or someone you love. They said it's inflation, but this is what happens when they sense that they can take advantage of someone. They won't talk to me (her grandson), only her, and told her there was nothing they could do and just took her money. Beware, use someone else, you cannot trust these people."

FAQs for central a/c installation projects in Gardner, KS

If you’re replacing an old AC system with a new unit, you can usually clean and repair the old ductwork without having to conduct a full replacement. Cleaning HVAC ducts typically costs around $400, while repairs range from $200 to $1,000. In contrast, installing new ductwork can range from $1,000 to $5,000, making it far more costly than cleaning or fixing existing ducts. HVAC installation costs an average of $7,000 to replace a full system, so staying on top of maintenance and repairs is important.

AC cost efficiency depends on the size of your space and your long-term plans for your home. If you only need to cool a small area, a portable AC unit has a low upfront cost. Heat pumps are typically the most cost-effective option if you want to cool an entire home or improve the resale value. They provide strong cooling while being energy-efficient, which saves you money on your utility bills compared to most other AC types.

Installing a central AC unit typically takes four to eight hours if your home already has ductwork in place. However, if new ductwork needs to be installed, this can add another one to two days of labor to your project.
