How do I know what size air conditioner my home needs?

It’s not just about square footage—insulation, ceiling height, and window placement all factor in. We perform a full load calculation to recommend the right size for comfort and efficiency. Getting it right means better cooling and fewer future issues.

How long does installation usually take?

Most standard installations can be completed in one day. If ductwork or upgrades are needed, we’ll let you know the timeline upfront. We work efficiently without cutting corners.

Do I have to replace my ductwork when I get a new AC?

Not always—but if your ducts are old, leaking, or poorly sized, they can limit your new system’s performance. We inspect your ductwork during the estimate and recommend changes only when they’ll truly improve results. In many cases, simple repairs or sealing can make a big difference.

What should I expect on installation day?

We’ll arrive on time, walk you through the plan, and protect your home throughout the process. After the system is installed, we’ll test everything, show you how it works, and clean up before we leave. You’ll be cool and comfortable in no time.

How to Choose the Perfect Air Conditioner

Selecting the right air conditioner for your home or business is crucial for ensuring comfort and efficiency. Here are some key factors to consider when making your decision:

Size and Capacity: Choose an AC unit that matches the size of your space. An undersized unit will struggle to cool your area, while an oversized unit can lead to inefficiency and higher energy bills.
Energy Efficiency: Look for units with high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings. Higher SEER ratings mean better energy efficiency, which can save you money on utility bills.
Features and Technology: Modern AC units come with various features such as programmable thermostats, variable speed fans, and smart home compatibility. Consider which features are important for your comfort and convenience.
Budget and Cost: Determine your budget and consider both the initial cost and long-term operating costs. Investing in a more efficient unit may have higher upfront costs but can save you money over time.
Brand and Warranty: Choose a reputable brand known for reliability and good customer service. Ensure the unit comes with a comprehensive warranty to protect your investment.

Mike showed up on time, on a weekend call explained what the problem probably was. Worked for a while found that he needed back up got the back he needed fixed my problem. Then took the time to explain about another project I was curious about. Truly professional helped fix my house. Can't say more on how happy I am with the service I received. Update- Paul installed a new gas tankless water heater. This is replacement for my older electric tank water heater. I did not have gas in the house when I requested this he ran the line, and changed the water line routing for the new configuration. He drained the old tank removed it and now I have extra space in my utility closet. He tuned the faucets in the bathroom for the new heater and made sure everything was working great. Truly an expert in his field.

Michael Hutchinson was awesome!! He’s the most patient soul. He installed a new kind of water heater, and this was a first on his own. The installation went great, but when it was time to power it on it did not turn on. He checked and rechecked the hook up. He called for guidance and tried everything he was told . After a while he called the supplier who gave him more things to try. That took an hour or more. The man suggested one more thing to test. This part was faulty. The part was ordered, and Michael easily swapped it out. He went for a long time working on this. He had missed his lunch. He just kept persisting. He never used any profanity. He would just sigh a frustrated breath but kept going. He was a nice guy who didn’t give up. I appreciated his honesty about it being a new type of water heater and his needing advice.

Connor with RS Andrews was absolutely outstanding during our after-hours plumbing emergency. He was professional, responsive, and kept us informed every step of the way as he worked through the issue. It’s not easy dealing with emergencies late in the day, but Connor handled everything with confidence and clear communication, which made a stressful situation much easier. We truly appreciated his dedication and the quality of his work. Highly recommend Connor and the RS Andrews team!

Justin Hansen did an amazing job in immediately diagnosing initial problem with my air conditioning. He also found a second problem (lack of maintenance on an older air handler on my behalf) and gave me a few no pressure suggestions. I will request him for future work.
