"We gave them a substantial deposit and they never completed the job and never returned the deposit and have stopped returning our calls. They never provided the coop the information they requested even though they assured us at the beginning of the project that they had plenty of experience dealing with NYC coops. We gave them the deposit early last spring and tried to help them pull the information together for the coop for months but in the end they blew us off, stopped returning calls and kept the deposit. We went all summer without air conditioning hoping they would come through for us."

FAQs for central a/c installation projects in Manhattan, NY

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.
