The Cost Of Central Air Conditioning
Unlike window air conditioners or wall-mounted mini-split units, central air conditioners are designed to cool your entire home. They come in a range of sizes and efficiencies, and can be installed in spaces of any size, from small starter homes to larger multi-family spaces. Central air conditioning systems require an AC unit to be installed on the outside of your home, a furnace to propel the cooled air, and ductwork to carry the cool air throughout the home.
At British Empire Fuels, central air conditioner installation starts at $3750.00, including the AC unit and installation by our HVAC experts.
While it is not an insignificant expense, it is an investment that can last up to 15 years if you prioritize maintenance. And, it can significantly improve your family’s quality of life.
Let’s look at what can influence the final cost of central air installation.
Factors that may influence the cost of central air conditioning installation.
The size and layout of your home
The size and output required of the AC unit
The condition of your home's existing ductwork
What it boils down to is this: the larger your home, the larger the AC unit required to cool it, and the higher the cost for central air conditioning
