Your Personal & Professional AC Installation Company

The installation process is the most critical part of any air conditioner's life span. How your AC unit is installed impacts the unit's effectiveness, or if it even works at all. A faulty AC installation can cost you more money down the road to fix while also impacting your comfort levels. The experts at Bradley Mechanical regularly perform AC system installation of all sizes and types. We know the ins and outs of ensuring that your AC unit is installed correctly and effectively, even down to where it will be installed in your home.

You can expect quality, professional service when our certified technicians arrive for your installation appointment:

  • We check over the coils and use nitrogen to prevent oxidation over time. This step is a crucial part of the process as it prevents contaminants from restricting refrigerant flow, allowing your unit to cool down the air efficiently.
  • We pressurize your unit with nitrogen to keep the system dry and clean during installation.
  • We also vacuum the AC unit to remove excess moisture and check for remaining contaminants. When extra moisture mixes with the refrigerant, it can cause the unit to freeze over and take on significant damage.
  • At the client's request, we'll schedule routine air conditioning maintenance appointments to give your unit tune-ups throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I replace my existing AC unit?

There are a few telltale signs that warrant an air conditioner replacement. If the number of repairs necessary to keep your current unit going is higher than the cost of a replacement, then we recommend going with the replacement. Our friends at Lennox recommend multiplying the unit's age by the cost of repairs; if the total exceeds $5,000, then it is more worthwhile to replace the system.

What type of AC system do you recommend? Why?

The right kind of AC system depends on several factors. Considerations include where you live, the size of your home, the rooms you need to keep cool, if there is an existing system and more. If you are having trouble deciding the best option for your home, our expert technicians will evaluate your needs, walk you through our recommendations and answer any questions you have.
