AC System Replacement in Cary

The Problem

A homeowner in Cary noticed their air conditioning system was not cooling properly.

What We Found

Dexter found the system was frozen and performed an electronic leak test, revealing a leak in the evaporator coil.

The Fix

Dexter defrosted the unit and identified that both the evaporator coil and the TXV needed replacement. After consulting with management, it was decided to replace the entire system. Additionally, the newly installed system had a blank thermostat, which was found to have power but was not functioning, necessitating a thermostat replacement.

The Result

The homeowner's AC system was successfully replaced, restoring cooling functionality to their home.

Pro Tip

If your AC system starts blowing warm air, check for ice buildup on the evaporator coil. Catching a freeze early can save you from costly repairs and system replacements down the line.

Why Quality AC Installation Matters in Cary

Airflow Challenges

Cary's suburban growth and tree canopy create unique airflow challenges, requiring properly sized HVAC systems to efficiently cool multi-story homes.

Humid Subtropical Climate

The area's humid subtropical climate with 90°F+ summer temperatures demands high-efficiency AC systems to manage energy costs and maintain comfort.

Aging Systems

Many Cary neighborhoods built in the 1990s-2000s have aging HVAC systems nearing replacement age, making preventive maintenance critical.

HOA Requirements

Local HOA regulations in Cary's planned communities often require specific equipment placement and noise level compliance for outdoor AC units.

Frequently Asked Questions About AC Installation in Cary

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Cary

How long does an AC installation take?

Most residential AC installations are completed in a single day, typically 6-10 hours. If significant ductwork modifications, electrical upgrades, or a complete system changeout (indoor and outdoor units) is required, the project may extend to two days.

What SEER rating should I choose for my new AC?

For the Raleigh-Durham area, we generally recommend 16 SEER2 or higher. The hot, humid Triangle summers mean your AC runs extensively, so higher-efficiency systems pay for themselves faster here than in milder climates. We'll show you a cost-benefit comparison for different efficiency levels.

Do I need to replace my furnace when I replace my AC?

Not always, but it's often recommended. Your indoor coil and blower are part of the heating system, and mismatched components reduce efficiency and can void warranties. We'll evaluate your existing equipment and give you honest advice on what actually needs replacing.

What brands do you install?

We install and service all major brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and Amana. We'll recommend the best option based on your budget, efficiency goals, and the specific needs of your home rather than pushing any single brand.
