Allen FAQ

Will I be without AC during the entire installation?+

For most of the day, yes, since the old system has to be disconnected before the new one goes in. We plan installations to minimize that window where possible and give you a realistic estimate upfront so you can plan around it.

Can installation be delayed once it's already started?+

Occasionally, if something unexpected is discovered once the old system is removed, like ductwork or electrical issues that weren't visible during the initial estimate. A good contractor explains this clearly and gives you real options rather than just proceeding and adding it to the bill afterward.

Yes. The guidance in this article applies to residential HVAC systems throughout Allen and the rest of our service area. If you want a read on your specific system, call us at (817) 935-8540 or request an estimate and mention you're in Allen.
