Types of AC Units We Install
We install and service most major brands of AC units, including central air systems, ductless mini-split systems, and energy-efficient air conditioners.
When we come to your home, we’ll inspect your current system, including:
- Measuring square footage and ceiling height
- Inspecting ducts and vents for air flow
- Looking at your current AC’s SEER rating
- Gathering information about your home cooling goals for the next 10 to 20 years
If you intend to live in your home for the next several years, choosing a new air conditioner with a higher SEER rating and a long-term warranty could be an excellent option to help you save on energy bills over the life of your system. Property owners who rent their property out may not require a long warranty or high-efficiency system.
We’re happy to work with you to determine the best AC installation for your needs.
Central Air Conditioning Installation
Central air systems include an outdoor condenser unit, an indoor air handler, and ducts in the attic and walls. Some homes have central AC and heating with a reversible system, and some older homes may include a separate furnace.
We also offer a 10-year parts and labor warranty standard with installation of any York system we sell and install, although we can install any make or model of air conditioner for your home, including major brands like Lennox, Trane, Carrier, and more.
When should you replace your existing central air system? Signs you need a replacement for your system include:
- High energy bills
- Poor indoor air quality
- Frequent power cycling
- Strange noises or smells when your AC is running
- Weak air flow from the vents or no cold air
We can inspect your current system and get you a free quote for the best options to fit the size of your home, the number of rooms in your home, and the temperature and air quality you prefer to maintain in your home.
Ductless Mini-Split Installation
If you can’t add ductwork to your home or want zoned cooling for certain rooms in your home, mini-split systems allow you to control the temperature in individual rooms at a much more affordable rate.
Mini-split systems consist of individual indoor air handlers in each room connected to their own fan and evaporator unit. The evaporator connects to an outdoor compressor through refrigerant lines that are much simpler to install than full-sized air ducts.
Mini-split systems are excellent options to cool a patio you’ve enclosed or a room addition that doesn’t connect to your home’s existing ducts. These systems are also a wonderful choice for garage conversions if you want to turn your garage into a workshop, home gym, or additional bedroom.
What is a SEER Rating?
The seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) rating is the most important number to understand when you’re shopping for a new air conditioning unit. A higher SEER rating means that a unit is more energy efficient, using less electricity or gas to keep your home cool in the summer.
Lower-SEER-rated units are less energy efficient but also more affordable. Higher SEER ratings increase the price of a new AC unit. Let us help you determine the right unit for your budget.
Air Conditioning Installation FAQ’s
What size air conditioner do I need for my building?
It depends on square footage, insulation, windows, and duct design. A load calculation by a professional ensures the system is sized properly.
Do I need to replace both the indoor and outdoor units together?
Most of the time, yes. Systems are designed to work as matched pairs. Mixing old and new parts can reduce efficiency and shorten equipment life.
When should I replace instead of repair my AC?
If your system is over 10–12 years old, needs frequent fixes, or your energy bills are climbing, replacement is often the more cost-effective choice.

How do I know if I need a new HVAC system?
Replacement may be worth considering when a system requires frequent repairs, struggles to
maintain comfortable temperatures, causes unusually high energy bills or needs a major
component replaced. The equipment’s age, condition, efficiency and repair history should all be
considered.
Should I repair or replace my HVAC system?
A smaller repair may make sense for a dependable system that is otherwise in good condition.
Replacement may offer better long-term value when an older system needs a major repair or has
repeated problems. Alexander Services can explain the available options so you can make an
informed decision.
How much does a new HVAC system cost?
The cost depends on the equipment type, system size, efficiency rating, installation requirements
and condition of the existing ductwork and connections. An in-home evaluation is usually
necessary to provide accurate options and pricing. Call (919) 886-4822 to request a free HVAC
replacement estimate.
How is the correct HVAC system size determined?
The correct size depends on more than square footage. Windows, insulation, ceiling height, air
leakage, sun exposure, floor plan and ductwork can all affect heating and cooling requirements.
Installing equipment that is too large or too small can reduce comfort, efficiency and equipment
life.
What types of HVAC systems do you install?
Alexander Services installs common residential and commercial heating and cooling systems,
including central air conditioners, heat pumps, gas furnaces, packaged systems and dual-fuel
systems. Equipment options depend on the property, existing utilities and comfort needs.
Should I choose a heat pump or a gas furnace?
Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling and are commonly used in North Carolina. Gas
furnaces produce warmer supply air and may be appropriate for properties with natural gas
service. The right choice depends on the home, available utilities, operating costs, comfort
preferences and budget.
What HVAC efficiency rating should I choose?
Higher-efficiency equipment may use less energy, but the best choice depends on your current
utility costs, budget, comfort needs and how long you expect to remain in the property. Proper
sizing and installation are also important to system performance.
How long does HVAC installation take?
Many standard residential HVAC replacements can be completed in one day. More complicated
installations may require additional time because of ductwork modifications, electrical changes,
equipment location or other property-specific requirements. Your comfort advisor can explain the
anticipated schedule.
What is included with a new HVAC installation?
The exact scope depends on the property and selected system. A typical replacement may
include removing the old equipment, installing the new indoor and outdoor units, completing
necessary connections, testing system operation, checking airflow and explaining how to use the
equipment and thermostat.
Will my existing ductwork work with a new HVAC system?
Existing ductwork may be reusable if it is properly sized, sealed and in good condition.
Damaged, leaking or improperly sized ducts can reduce the performance of new equipment. The
duct system should be evaluated as part of the replacement process.
Are financing options available for a new HVAC system?
Financing options may be available for qualified customers. Terms, approval requirements and
current offers can change. Call Alexander Services at (919) 886-4822 to ask about available
financing options.
Are rebates or tax credits available for new HVAC systems?
Utility rebates, manufacturer promotions and federal tax credits may be available for qualifying
equipment. Programs, qualifying equipment and eligibility requirements can change, so ask
Alexander Services about current savings opportunities when requesting your estimate.
How long do new HVAC systems usually last?
Many central air conditioners and heat pumps last approximately 10 to 15 years, while some
furnaces may last longer. Actual service life varies based on installation quality, maintenance,
usage and operating conditions.
