When summer temperatures soar, having a properly installed air conditioning system becomes essential for maintaining comfort in your home or business. At Thorsen’s-Norquist , we specialize in comprehensive AC installation services that ensure optimal performance, energy efficiency, and long-lasting reliability. Our experienced technicians understand that each property has unique cooling requirements, and we tailor our installation approach to meet your specific needs while maximizing system efficiency.
We take our responsibility very seriously when you place your trust in us. We pledge to always tell you up front what your cost will be to complete your job correctly. Our transparent pricing model means you’ll never encounter hidden fees or unexpected charges during the installation process. We make it a point to go over any details or limitations of the proposed system that will affect your enjoyment of the end result, ensuring you make an informed decision about your cooling investment.
The Air Conditioner Installation Process
Our AC installation process begins with a thorough assessment of your property’s cooling needs. We evaluate factors including square footage, insulation quality, window placement, and existing ductwork to determine the ideal system capacity. Industry statistics show that up to 50% of new HVAC systems are improperly sized, leading to inefficient operation and premature failure. Our load calculation methodology prevents these issues by ensuring your new system matches your space perfectly.
During the installation phase, our certified technicians follow strict protocols to guarantee proper system integration. We carefully position the outdoor condensing unit on a level pad, ensuring adequate clearance for airflow and maintenance access. Indoor components receive equal attention, with evaporator coils positioned for optimal air distribution and condensate drainage. Every refrigerant line is properly insulated and secured, preventing energy loss and protecting against physical damage. We verify all electrical connections meet local codes and manufacturer specifications, installing appropriate disconnect switches and surge protection devices.
Energy Efficiency A/C Systems
Modern air conditioning systems offer remarkable energy efficiency improvements compared to units manufactured just a decade ago. When we install your new AC system, we focus on maximizing these efficiency gains through proper sizing, configuration, and integration with your existing home systems. Today’s high-efficiency units can achieve SEER ratings exceeding 20, potentially reducing cooling costs by 40% or more compared to older systems.
We help you navigate available efficiency options, explaining how features like variable-speed compressors, smart thermostats, and zoning systems can further reduce energy consumption. Our installation team ensures all components work together seamlessly, from properly sealed ductwork to correctly charged refrigerant levels. These details significantly impact system performance and operating costs throughout the Modesto, Turlock, CA, and surrounding areas.
Types of Air Conditioners and Applications
We install various AC system types to accommodate different property layouts and cooling requirements:
- Central Air Systems: Ideal for homes with existing ductwork, providing consistent whole-house cooling through a network of supply and return vents
- Ductless Mini-Split Systems: Perfect for additions, renovations, or homes without ductwork, offering zone-specific temperature control and exceptional efficiency
- Heat Pump Systems: Providing both heating and cooling capabilities, these versatile units offer year-round comfort with lower operating costs than traditional systems
Each system type requires specific installation expertise to achieve optimal performance. Our technicians receive ongoing training on the latest equipment and installation techniques, ensuring your new system operates at peak efficiency from day one.
