Air conditioners range from 40 to 60 decibels at the compressor. Ask for the outdoor unit noise level. A louder unit is disruptive if placed near bedroom windows. Ask about fan speed settings. Low speed reduces noise but cools slower. High speed handles heat spikes but gets loud. Choose a model that fits your neighborhood noise tolerance.
Basic filters catch large dust particles. Advanced filters trap allergens and fine mold spores. Ask for specific micron ratings. Lower micron numbers mean finer filtration. Some filters require replacement every 3 months. Others last 12 months. Use the correct size. A loose fit lets unfiltered air bypass the system entirely.
Modern AC units require dedicated 220-volt circuits. Ask if your main panel has free space for a new breaker. If not, an electrician must upgrade the service. This adds cost and time. Do not skip this step. Underpowered wiring causes trips or fires. Ensure the installer checks the amperage draw against your existing breakers before starting work.
Copper lines are standard for durability. Aluminum is cheaper but corrodes faster in high humidity. Ask about the line set diameter. Mismatched diameters restrict refrigerant flow. Poor flow reduces cooling efficiency. It also increases pressure on the compressor. Always request a quote that specifies the exact material and gauge used.
Many jurisdictions require permits for refrigerant handling and electrical work. Ask the contractor to pull the permit. This ensures the work passes inspection. Unpermitted work can void your homeowner insurance. It also complicates future home sales. Ask for a copy of the permit number and final inspection sign off after completion.
If buying a smart unit, test the Wi-Fi range in your home. Thick walls block signals. Ask if the remote works via infrared or Bluetooth when offline. Verify the app interface before signing off. Poor connectivity leaves you unable to adjust temperature from bed. Ensure the installer pairs the device and confirms stable internet connection in the living area.
Standard parts warranties last 1 to 5 years. Compressor warranties often reach 10 years. Read the exclusions carefully. Many void coverage if non-certified technicians perform maintenance. Ask if labor is covered during the warranty period. Most companies only cover parts. You still pay for the technician time to replace the faulty component.
The outdoor unit needs a solid concrete pad or vibration isolators. If it vibrates, noise transfers into your walls and floors. Ask about the mounting hardware used. Rubber pads or steel brackets reduce rattling. An unstable base damages the internal components over time, shortening the life of the expensive compressor part.
Ask for a heat load calculation before signing. The technician must measure room dimensions, window count, and insulation quality. Under-sizing forces the unit to run constantly. Over-sizing causes short cycling. Both scenarios increase energy bills and wear out the compressor faster than normal operation.
A standard split system takes 4 to 8 hours to install. Multi-zone systems require 1 to 2 days. Ask for a start and finish time. Delays often happen due to missing permits or material shortages. Confirm if the crew works on weekends. Some professionals charge premium rates for weekend work. Get the schedule in writing to avoid confusion.
