Air Conditioning System Installation

York has been a leader in air conditioning technology for more than 100 years, providing a wide variety of cutting edge home cooling products to homeowners interested in maximum home comfort. Homeowners who invest in a York air conditioner have the peace of mind that comes with knowing they have a reliable system that will consistently keep their home cool for years to come. But the AC unit itself is only half of the equation – you also need a professional contractor to install and maintain the unit.

We know how hard it can be to find the perfect dealer and contractor, so we’ve taken the guess work out of the equation by creating a York dealer locator. Because we only work with the best dealers in New Jersey you can rest assured that everyone on our list is someone you can trust to provide quality service for your air conditioner no matter what you need.

Did you know that if you are replacing your air conditioning system you need to make sure that your evaporator coil exactly matches your new condensing coil? If you leave the old evaporator coil, your system will not function efficiently and it might cause problems for your compressor. A qualified HVAC contractor will do a complete assessment to ensure that all components of your system will work together and that you are getting as much energy efficiency as possible.

York Air Conditioning System Considerations

How your air conditioner is installed depends largely on the configuration of your current home comfort system and whether you already have an air handler and ductwork in place to distribute cooled air throughout your home. If you have a boiler and radiant heating system, your home may not have the necessary configurations for a traditional air conditioner installation. Your contractor can assess your home and educate you on your options.

Additionally, there is the issue of energy efficiency. A good air conditioner needs to cool your entire home without utilizing too much electricity. To measure how much energy an air conditioner uses, look for the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER). This number is a reflection of the overall efficiency of your air conditioner, and the higher the number, the more efficient the unit is. The industry standard is SEER 13, meaning every model you choose will have at least a SEER of 13. If you are replacing an older model in your home, that means you’ll get an upgrade with almost any York model – as today’s models are up to 60% more energy efficient than the best options available 10 years ago.

AC Installation Process

During installation, a contractor will plan the location of your air conditioner. Most central and packaged air conditioner units are placed outside so the unit can transfer heat from inside your home. Electricity must be available so the unit is usually placed beside your home, in an out of the way area where debris and sediment buildup can be controlled. You don’t want anything clogging up your filters or getting into the mechanisms. You should also clear away any brush and in the winter pay close attention to snow buildup that can damage the unit.
