"I cannot say enough positive things about Shannon and his skills! He came in and did a thorough walk through of our HVAC system and did not rush that process. I appreciate the time he took and everything he looked at. He gave his honest recommendation and we ended up replacing our entire hvac system. He did an amazing job. He took his time, did a thorough job and left no trace of mess. He is kind and respectful and he knows his stuff! He made great recommendations for us as far as equipment and even made necessary improvements to our air duct system so that the airflow is maximized. He heard our frustration about allergies and recommended a filter that would help addresss that. He did a great job. I am so happy with the work and my HVAC system. I would recommend him to anyone. Fair pricing and quality work. "

"Mr. Raffensberger was extremely knowledgaable and was careful to do everything right and to a very high quality. Fees were very reasonable. I'm exceptionally pleased with the new high efficiency boiler installed at a different location than the old one was in our basement. It was necessary to run a lot of new hot water heating lines, add a natural gas supply to the boiler location, and add air intakes and exhaust through the walls of the old brick farmhouse. The new boiler is heating at a far lower cost than the old oil boiler from the 1950's. Mr Raffensberger didn't cut corners. The installation and operation are great!"

Central a/c installations FAQs

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.
