Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of installing a new air conditioning system?
Installing a new air conditioning system can improve energy efficiency, enhance indoor comfort, provide better air quality, and reduce energy costs. Modern systems also offer advanced features such as programmable thermostats and zoning capabilities.

SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating measures the efficiency of an air conditioning system. Higher SEER ratings indicate greater energy efficiency, which can lead to lower energy bills and reduced environmental impact.
How long does it take to install a new air conditioning system?
The installation time for a new air conditioning system typically ranges from a few hours to a full day, depending on the complexity of the installation and any additional work required, such as ductwork modifications.
Do I need to replace my ductwork when installing a new air conditioning system?
Not necessarily. However, it’s essential to have your ductwork inspected for leaks, damage, or inadequate sizing. Properly functioning ductwork is crucial for the efficiency and performance of your new air conditioning system.
What is the cost of installing a new air conditioning system?
The cost varies based on factors such as the type and size of the system, installation complexity, and any additional features or upgrades. Absolute Services will provide a detailed estimate after assessing your specific needs.

Central air conditioning systems use ductwork to distribute cooled air throughout your home, while ductless mini-split systems provide cooling directly to specific areas without the need for ducts. Both options have their benefits, and Absolute Services can help you determine the best choice for your home.
