Air Conditioning Installation in Cincinnati, OH
Many homeowners can initially be hesitant to install a new air conditioning unit. While the installation can generally be expensive, you’ll see significant savings on your energy bills, spend less on repairs, and notice far more effective cooling. Contact the heating and cooling experts at Nelson Comfort to schedule your home’s air conditioning installation.
When To Repair vs. Replace Your AC System
Like all appliances, air conditioners don’t last indefinitely. While you can keep attempting to repair a failing system, eventually it will be far more cost-effective to replace the unit. Some signs that you should have your AC replaced rather than repaired include:
- AC is 15+ years old
- AC has required frequent repairs recently
- Your unit is not sufficiently cooling your home
- Estimated cost of repairs is 50% or more than the price to replace
If any of these signs are true for you, it’s time to start considering an air conditioner replacement. If you’re still not sure whether a repair or replacement is better, our team at Nelson Comfort can inspect your system and suggest the best response.
What To Consider When Buying a New Air Conditioner in Cincinnati
SEER rating
The SEER rating of an AC system allows you to see how energy efficient the system is. The higher an air conditioner’s SEER rating is, the more efficient the system is and the less that your energy bills will cost.
Noise levels
While some air conditioners operate at incredibly quiet noise levels, other air conditioners are louder and can become disruptive. Determine the air conditioner noise level that is best for your home when buying a new AC unit.
Hiring a professional HVAC contractor
When you need to install a new air conditioner, you also need to find a contractor to perform the service. Attempting to perform the installation yourself can lead to installation issues that will negatively affect the performance of your AC.
There are many HVAC contractors within the Cincinnati area, and it’s important to find the one that can best meet your needs.
Proper AC sizing
There are different AC sizes to meet the needs of different house sizes. Find the one that best fits the size of your home to cool it properly.
Indoor air quality add-ons
Many air conditioners are compatible with indoor air quality products that can greatly improve the quality of air within your home. If you may want to add IAQ products to your home in the future, consider AC systems that allow indoor air quality add-ons.

How Long an AC System Will Last
Older air conditioner units typically last between 10 to 15 years, although this number can go up or down for a number of reasons. Keeping up with professional maintenance will help your unit last longer. With today’s modern air conditioners, you can expect a new AC system to last up to 15 to 20 years, especially if it is properly maintained.
