AC Installation & Replacement in Aurora, CO
Sometimes the call is genuinely an emergency. Sometimes it's a Monday morning fix. We'll be honest about which one yours is. If we can't get to you ourselves, we'll tell you who to call. Free consult either way.
The actual work
When repair doesn't make sense, replacement does. Modern systems run 50-70% more efficient than 15-year-old units, and the sun-belt utility savings can pay back the system in 6-9 years.
We size systems with proper Manual J calculation — not by square footage rules of thumb. Right-sizing matters; oversized systems short-cycle and don't dehumidify properly, undersized systems run constantly and never reach setpoint.
Standard same-day install: 1.5 to 5 ton residential central AC, single-stage and 2-stage, 14-18 SEER, all major brands. Variable-speed inverter systems and full ductwork rebuilds typically take 2-3 days.
Permit pulled by us where required. We handle the manufacturer warranty registration too — most homeowners don't realize unregistered systems carry only the base 5-year warranty instead of the 10-year that registration unlocks.
Local context for Aurora
We dispatch from a shop near the city limits, so Aurora runs are quick. Suburbs and outlying towns run longer.
That said, newer construction in Aurora has its own set of typical issues. We see both.
From the books — a recent Aurora job
Last spring we got a call from a homeowner near the north Aurora. 3.5-ton system, 16 years old, repeatedly failing capacitors and refrigerant leaks. Diagnosis: compressor on its last year. We replaced with new 4-ton 16 SEER variable-speed system, $11,200 installed, ran the test, and were out the door in the same visit. Total: $1820 including parts.
