"I had a brand new package air conditioning unit installed back in 2005 with a 10-year parts and labor warranty as follows: "1 year all labor, 10 year all parts,10 year all coils,10 year compressor, Lifetime heat exchanger. 1 year service agreement, 5 year thermostat control (Rheem EcoNet Control Center). ** this system qualifies for a 10 year all parts and labor plan." I currently have a problem with a leak in my evaporator coil. I called in and was told that I would be charged $89 for a service call plus any refrigerant and any other miscellaneous charges that came up. In addition, because I did not sign up for a "service agreement" at the time of installation, the "10 year all parts and labor plan" was INVALID. No where in any documentation I received states the requirement for a service agreement in order to meet the requirements for the 10 year all parts and labor warranty. I am happy to provide the documentation that I received from Advanced Air Technology that listed the work requirements and warranty information to anyone, anytime. Never once did I see a document where i was presented with the option to accept or reject a "service agreement" at the time of installation. Now that I have a serious and probably expensive repair, the parts would be covered but I would be charged an enormous amount of money for labor, refrigerant, supplies, labor time, etc. I am very disappointed in Advanced Air Technology and I would not recommend their sales or services to anyone at this time."

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.
