WHAT EQUIPMENT AM I ACTUALLY BUYING WITH AN AC REPLACEMENT?

If you're not an expert in AC systems, chances are you're not well-versed in all the air conditioning components and jargon. If you find yourself baffled by your HVAC contractor's technical language, fret not! We'll take the time to clarify every detail until you're at ease. Whether you only require a single component for your AC system or all the elements are part of your project, it's crucial to grasp each part of the air conditioning system. Here are the key components and terminology you should be familiar with:

EVAPORATOR COIL
(also known as the evaporator or indoor coil) – The indoor side of your air conditioner is called the evaporator coil. Most homes in Winton, CA have an evaporator coil right next to a furnace. Or, if there’s no furnace, there will be an evaporator coil inside a piece of equipment called an air handler. The evaporator coil is where very cold refrigerant travels through. Evaporator coils also contain a device called an expansion valve. The expansion valve keeps your coil at the necessary cool temperatures.
CONDENSING UNIT
(also referred to as a condenser, outdoor unit, or simply air conditioner) – The condensing unit is the big metal box that sits outside your home. The condensing unit builds pressure in the system and helps to cool the refrigerant. The condensing unit has several components that help with this, including a coil, a fan, and a compressor. The coil and fan help cool refrigerant, while the compressor helps build pressure.
OTHER COMPONENTS IN AN AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
Although condenser units and evaporator coils are the key pieces of your air conditioning, don’t overlook these other critical parts:

Piping for refrigerant that travels between the condensing unit and evaporator coil.
Ductwork which carries air around your home.
Blower (or indoor fan) which helps airflow through the ductwork. The indoor fan is normally located inside a furnace or an air handler.
Thermostat which sends on and off signals to your condensing unit and blower.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE SELECTING A NEW AC UNIT

Getting a new air conditioner for your Winton, CA, home is a major investment. It should serve you for 10 to 15 years, so you want to make sure it will last. Whether you live in Winton, CA, or Merced County, Fresno County, Sacramento County, Stanislaus County, and San Joaquin County, make sure you hire licensed HVAC installers like the Indoor Comfort Team. We have supplied this information to help you get what you need to know before buying a new AC system.

INSTALLER
Clean workmanship is essential to the long-term operation of a new air conditioner. A shoddy install can cause poor performance and avoidable repairs. Even the most premium equipment cannot compensate for an installation job done poorly. Choose a reputable HVAC contractor to install your equipment. Check out our checklist for choosing the right contractor.
FEATURES
There has been a lot of innovation within the cooling industry, and air conditioners can do a lot more these days. Are you interested in a high-efficiency unit? What about systems that offer zoning in your home? Or, does the noise from your current air conditioner keep you awake at night? HAC Heating & Air Conditioning carries a wide variety of air conditioner products. So, we can help you find an AC that meets YOUR needs!
WHOLE SYSTEM OR JUST ONE PIECE
Which part of your system are you looking to replace? Now might be a good time to evaluate if other pieces in your system require replacement, as there are often great incentives to purchase a full system. Another piece of info important to homeowners: most new equipment uses the refrigerant type called R-410A sometimes referred to as Puron. If your existing system uses R-22 refrigerant (also known as Freon), it won’t be compatible with an R-410A system. Due to federal regulations, equipment compatible with R-22 can no longer be sold. So, replacing one piece of your system may lead to replacing others.

BRAND
How important is a brand name to you? HAC Heating & Air Conditioning offers top-of-the-line equipment from Carrier, a world leader in HVAC solutions. Millions of people around the world trust the leadership and expertise of Carrier for their homes.
BUDGET
Consider your spending limit for your air conditioner installation. Depending on the size of your project, it could be thousands of dollars. Luckily, HAC Heating & Air Conditioning offers financing for our CA customers, which will help break down the cost of your AC install into convenient monthly payments.
HOW ABOUT A HEAT PUMP?
Air conditioners are exactly that: cooling only equipment. But have you heard about heat pumps? A heat pump is a combination unit that provides both cooling and heating. Heat pumps are ideal for Winton, CA homes because our winters are so mild. If you have ever considered adding heat to your home, a heat pump is a great way to enhance your home’s comfort without adding a ton of cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

CAN I JUST REPLACE THE OUTSIDE AC UNIT?
We always recommend replacing both the indoor and outdoor unit at the same time for a few reasons. Typically, the old indoor unit will be incompatible with the new outdoor unit. Additionally, replacing just the outside unit can cause issues with your manufacturer warranty, and the system may not run efficiently–leading to breakdowns and needed repairs.
HOW LONG DOES AC REPLACEMENT TAKE?
Typically, our installation teams can get a new system installed properly in eight hours or less. This includes removing the old system, installing the new one, and ensuring that everything is working correctly.
HOW DO I KNOW IF IT’S TIME TO REPLACE MY AC?
There are a few common signs to be on the lookout for when determining if you should replace your air conditioner, including:

Age of the system
Energy bills are going up
Frequent repairs are needed

To learn more about identifying the right time to replace your air conditioner, call us today.
CAN AC BE INSTALLED AT ANYTIME OF THE YEAR?
Yes! Air conditioning systems can be installed at any time because the installation process has nothing to do with the weather. However, we typically recommend getting them installed during spring, summer, or fall.

CLIENT REVIEWS

HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS

I recently used H-A-C to install a new HVAC system, they are a great family owned and run local business. Horatio and his crew did a great job from start to finish. They followed all my directions, explained everything very thoroughly before they started any work- what to expect, what they will do and how they will do it- and met all my expectations. They did very good quality and clean work and most importantly, they were on time to meet for the estimate and walk through and competed they're work when they said they would. They were very truthful and upfront, not to mention very price competitive! I will gladly recommend them to friends and clients! Thank You!

This company is honest and professional. We had been to 2 different companies because our AC quit working on a 109 degree day. One said it was shot, 5900 for a new unit. The other one said it was fine needed freon, but he was out. Got this companies number from a friend and called the came out the next day. Low and behold the unit was fine no freon needed not broken beyond repair, it was clogged and needed cleaning. They deep cleaned it and my house has never been cooler. Can't say enough positive things about this company. Thank you so happy and cool 😊
