Air Conditioning Install & Service

Types of Air Conditioning Systems

You have a few different options to cool your home. Central air conditioning systems keep the entire house cool, which makes the hottest months of the year more comfortable. If you are looking into replacing an existing central air conditioning system and have existing ductwork, this may be the best option for your home and budget.

If your home doesn’t have ductwork already installed or you only want to add air conditioning to a few areas, a ductless mini-split system may be the best option for you. Ductless heat pumps offer quiet and energy-efficient air conditioning. Just like a traditional heat pump, a ductless split system can provide both heat and air conditioning.

Choosing the Best AC System for Your Home

Once you have made the decision to upgrade your existing air conditioner or would like to install air conditioning for the first time, you will need to choose the right system for your home. We can explain the options available for your house, townhome, or condo, and help you select the most ideal system. When recommending a system, we consider factors like:

Sizing
The capacity of the AC unit must be proper for your home’s square footage.

Outdoor space
We will ensure you have the space needed to meet local noise ordinances, such as the distance from the system to your property line.

Inside space
We will consider the sufficiency of your ductwork, cold air return registers, and fan or air handler.

We are happy to provide free estimates for AC installation in Billings MT and the surrounding communities.

Our cooling specialists will evaluate your home; help you determine which type of system will best suit your needs, explain the options available, and provide an estimate for the cost of the project.
