Find reliable local air conditioning installation services near you

The cost of air conditioning installation can range from $300 to $8,000, depending on the type of air conditioning unit you want - whether split systems, window types, or central air conditioning systems. Specify the details of your task or what type of air conditioning system you need to have installed, so you can get the best offers from an air conditioner installer in your area. 

The installation process can take four to eight hours. But it’s important to note that the time it takes to install your AC unit depends on several factors, like the kind and dimensions of the unit, the size of your property, and the accessibility of the space. Discuss these details with your Tasker beforehand so you can gauge how long the installation process will take.

It depends on what type of air conditioning unit you have, but generally speaking, the average lifespan of an air conditioner is 10 to 25 years. You can maximise this lifespan by ensuring that your unit is correctly installed by a professional, maintaining and cleaning it regularly, and having it repaired when needed.  

You should have your existing aircon unit replaced when it is more than ten years old, it frequently breaks down, your energy bills have skyrocketed, is no longer energy efficient, and when it stops keeping up with your needs and doing its supposed job. Another sign would be when repairs cost way more than installing a replacement. Your Tasker can assess your existing air conditioning unit if it needs to be repaired or replaced. 

After your aircon installation, you should first check its control system. Testing your thermostat is a way to see whether it has problems sensing the temperature inside your property. Then, inspect the ducts and listen for unusual noises like rustling, flapping, or hissing. Lastly, examine whether cool air is circulating inside the room. Your Tasker can be with you as you do these inspections so they can fix the problems that would arise.

It’s not recommended. Air conditioning installation can only be done by professionals with the appropriate skills, training, and licences. And since installing an aircon involves working on electrical components, this adds an elevated risk to the process. It’s best to leave this to the experts to save yourself time, money, effort, and from potential harm.

Think about your needs, space requirements, and budget. Also, consider the unit’s quality, size, energy consumption, air quality, and durability. You can also consult your Tasker about the amount of time it takes and cost to install and whether the unit requires high maintenance. Consider all these factors before choosing the aircon type to install on your property.
