When your new AC system is installed correctly, you stop worrying about it. The temperature stays consistent throughout your home, even during those unexpected Peninsula heat waves. Your energy bills become predictable instead of shocking you every month.
You get reliable cooling that works when you need it most. No more calling around hoping someone will show up. No more sweating through another breakdown while waiting for repairs that should have been done right the first time.
Your family enjoys cleaner air and consistent comfort. That’s what happens when experienced technicians install quality equipment designed for San Bruno’s unique climate needs.
We’ve been keeping San Bruno homes comfortable since 2001. We understand how Peninsula weather affects your cooling needs and what equipment works best in this climate.
Our technicians are licensed, insured, and trained on all major AC brands. We wear shoe covers, keep clean vehicles, and clean up our work area because your home deserves that level of respect.
Most of our work comes from referrals because we show up when we say we will and charge exactly what we quote. No surprises, no hidden fees, no excuses.
First, we assess your home’s specific cooling needs and existing setup. Different homes have different requirements, and your new AC system should match how you actually live and San Bruno’s climate patterns.
Next, we provide upfront pricing that includes the equipment, installation labor, permits, and disposal of your old unit. You know exactly what you’re paying before any work begins.
Installation happens on schedule with minimal disruption to your daily routine. Our technicians arrive with fully stocked trucks and complete most installations the same day. We test everything thoroughly and make sure you understand how to operate your new system before we leave.

Your AC installation includes everything needed for reliable operation. We handle permits required by San Bruno, dispose of your old equipment properly, and provide comprehensive system testing.
Peninsula homes often have unique installation challenges due to older construction and specific climate considerations. We’ve handled everything from tight spaces to unusual ductwork requirements throughout the Bay Area.
San Bruno’s Mediterranean climate means your AC system works harder during warm, dry summers and needs to be ready for unexpected temperature swings. We recommend equipment based on your home’s specific needs, your budget, and energy efficiency goals that make sense for local weather patterns.
AC installation costs vary based on your home’s size, existing ductwork, and the type of system you choose. Central air installations typically range from $3,300 to $5,900, while ductless mini-split systems cost $3,200 to $10,500 depending on how many zones you need.
We provide upfront pricing that includes the AC unit, installation labor, permits, and disposal of your old equipment. No hidden fees or surprise charges after we start work. Most San Bruno homes can be assessed the same day you call for an accurate estimate.
The right AC size depends on your home’s square footage, insulation levels, window placement, and San Bruno’s specific climate conditions. An undersized unit will struggle to cool your home efficiently, while an oversized unit will cycle on and off too frequently, wasting energy and creating humidity problems.
Our technicians calculate the exact cooling load needed for your property using industry-standard methods. We consider factors like ceiling height, sun exposure, and how Peninsula weather affects your home’s temperature patterns. This ensures your new AC system operates efficiently and maintains consistent comfort year-round.
Most standard AC installations take 4 to 8 hours from start to finish, including removing your old unit, installing the new system, making all connections, and testing operation. Same-day installation is often possible when you call early in the day.
If your home needs electrical upgrades, new ductwork, or has access challenges, installation might take longer. We’ll give you an accurate timeline before starting work and keep you updated if anything changes. Our trucks are stocked with common parts and equipment to handle most San Bruno installations without delays.
Yes, San Bruno requires permits for most AC installations, especially when replacing existing systems or upgrading electrical connections. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service, so you don’t have to deal with city paperwork.
Some homeowners try to skip permits to save money, but this can cause problems when selling your home or filing insurance claims. Permitted work ensures your installation meets California safety codes and protects your investment. We include permit costs in our upfront pricing so there are no surprises.
We install and service all major AC brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, and Goodman. Our technicians are trained on different manufacturers’ systems and can recommend the best equipment for your specific situation and budget.
For San Bruno’s climate, we often recommend high-efficiency units that work well in moderate temperatures without extreme energy consumption. We’ll explain the differences between brands and help you choose equipment that makes sense for Peninsula weather patterns and your home’s specific cooling needs.
If your AC unit is over 10-15 years old and needs frequent repairs, replacement usually makes more financial sense than continuing to fix an aging system. Signs you need replacement include inconsistent cooling, unusual noises, high energy bills, or major component failures like compressor problems.
We use the $5,000 rule: multiply your system’s age by the repair cost. If that number exceeds $5,000, replacement is typically the better investment. San Bruno’s year-round climate means your AC works harder than in many areas, so systems may need replacement sooner than the national average. We’ll assess your specific situation honestly and recommend repair or replacement based on what makes the most financial sense.
