How much does it cost to have air conditioning installed?

Air conditioning installation price varies. One of the primary costs will be for the unit itself. Our technicians also have the ability to modify ductwork in case it is needed. We will also charge an installation fee that varies depending on how many installation parts we use, and how much time it takes to do the job. But no matter what, we will give you a written firm proposal in advance, before we start the work, guarantee the price, and guarantee the work!

How much should it cost to convert from a traditional to tankless hot water heater?

Tankless water heaters are often more costly to install than traditional tank water heaters. However, the overall cost for installing a tankless hot water heater will vary depending on your existing plumbing and the cost and capacity of the unit itself. Tankless hot water heaters are a great option for new builds and when easy accessibility and venting are available. Annual maintenance for your new tankless water heater is vital to keep it functioning properly!

Can you repair any brand of water heater?

Yes! We are experienced in water heater repairs with most makes and models of water heaters. Whether you have a traditional tank water heater or a tankless unit, our reputable professionals are highly capable of fixing any problem you might have with your hot water unit. As long as the parts available, we offer repairs for most water heater brands. If your water heater is over eight years old, parts aren’t readily available, or repairs will cost over $800, we may recommend installing a new unit for the most cost-effective option.

3 Great Air Conditioning Options For Mobile Homes

If you have a mobile home and want to install an AC unit, you have more options than you may think. Many mobile homeowners start with window air conditioning; however, this approach could require several units to cool the entire home, proving to be costly and noisy. Other options for mobile homes include packaged air conditioning, central split-system air conditioning, and ductless air conditioning.

Let’s take a look at different air conditioning options for your mobile home.

Packaged air conditioning

One of the most popular mobile home air conditioning options is packaged air conditioning. Why? Packaged air conditioners are great because it’s all the components of a split system combined into one outside unit. Packaged AC units are outside, making a separate indoor unit unnecessary. Packaged units are popular for smaller mobile homes with limited space.

Central split-system air conditioning

Central split-system air conditioning is another popular choice for mobile homeowners, especially in residential areas. Central split systems use an indoor evaporator unit to absorb the heat in your home and a separate outdoor unit to release the heat outside. This type of AC is usually very cost-efficient. Plus, the unit works with an existing furnace and duct system, which many mobile homes already have.

Ductless air conditioning

If your mobile home has no existing ductwork, the ductless air conditioning unit is a functional solution to your AC needs. Much like the central split-system air conditioning systems, ductless AC units require an outdoor unit and one or more indoor air handlers. What separates it from central air conditioning units is that air handlers are installed throughout your entire mobile home, with no need for ducts. Best of all, these freestanding handlers can often be controlled by individual thermostats.
