What's Included in Professional AC Installation

AC installation is far more complex than simply connecting outdoor and indoor units. A properly executed installation addresses refrigerant lines, electrical connections, ductwork design, condensate drainage, and thermostat integration.

Pre-Installation Assessment & Planning

  • Comprehensive home energy evaluation to determine proper system sizing
  • Analysis of existing ductwork condition and capacity
  • Electrical system inspection to ensure adequate service capacity
  • Review of all building codes and local permitting requirements
  • Detailed installation plan addressing every aspect of your project
  • Transparent estimate and timeline before any work begins

System Sizing & Selection

Proper sizing is critical—an oversized unit cycles frequently without removing humidity, while an undersized unit struggles to maintain comfort.

We calculate your home's heat load considering square footage, insulation levels, window types, solar exposure, and climate to determine exactly what your home needs.

Equipment Setup & Installation

  • Professional outdoor unit placement optimizing airflow and minimizing noise
  • Proper indoor coil/air handler installation in optimal location
  • Installation of all ductwork, refrigerant lines, and electrical connections
  • Condensate drain line routing with proper slope and secondary protection
  • Thermostat installation and programming for your comfort preferences
  • Vibration isolation to minimize operating noise

Refrigerant Charging & Testing

Proper refrigerant charge directly affects system efficiency and lifespan. We measure charge weight precisely, not just by pressure readings, ensuring your system operates at exact manufacturer specifications for maximum cooling and efficiency.

  • Complete system startup procedure following manufacturer protocols
  • Temperature and pressure testing throughout the system
  • Air flow verification at every register and return
  • Thermostat functionality verification and programming
  • Customer walkthrough and operation instruction
  • Warranty registration and service documentation

Frequently Asked Questions About AC Installation in Sweetwater, TN

Most Armstrong ProTeam air conditioning installations in Sweetwater take one to two business days for the main equipment setup. The complete timeline from consultation through final testing spans 1-2 weeks depending on permit processing and any needed electrical upgrades. We'll provide a detailed timeline when you schedule your consultation.

System size depends on many factors: home square footage, insulation levels, window types, solar exposure, and current thermostat settings. We perform a detailed heat load calculation during your consultation to determine exactly what your home needs. Undersized systems struggle to maintain comfort; oversized units waste energy and fail to remove humidity properly.

Sometimes, but it depends on your existing ductwork condition. We evaluate duct sizing, seal leaks, add insulation as needed, and ensure compatibility with your new Armstrong ProTeam system. If existing ductwork is inadequate, we install new ductwork sized properly for your new system's cooling capacity.

Many older Sweetwater homes have 100-amp service adequate only for basic loads. Modern Armstrong ProTeam systems may require electrical upgrades. We assess your service during consultation and coordinate any needed upgrades. Financing through VEC/TVA, Sweetwater Utilities/TVA, and Service Finance covers electrical work as part of your installation project.

We can install complete ductwork systems during your AC installation. Proper ductwork design and sizing is critical for system performance. We calculate exact sizing for your new Armstrong ProTeam system and install professional ductwork delivering optimal cooling throughout your Sweetwater home.

Installation costs vary based on system size, existing ductwork condition, electrical service requirements, and other factors. We provide detailed estimates after your consultation. VEC/TVA, Sweetwater Utilities/TVA, and Service Finance financing makes quality installation accessible with flexible payment terms. Call 423-271-6515 for a free estimate with no obligation.

Armstrong ProTeam systems come with lifetime compressor warranty on parts and 10-year limited warranty on components with proper registration. Our 1-year workmanship warranty covers our installation, and prompt professional service protects you if any issues arise. Extended warranties are available for additional protection beyond standard coverage.

Smart thermostats offer excellent benefits: remote temperature adjustment, automatic scheduling, energy monitoring, and learning features. They cost modestly more than standard programmable models but deliver better comfort and lower energy bills. We can install Honeywell or other smart thermostats during your AC installation project.

Yes! If traditional ductwork isn't practical or you want zone control, Armstrong or Samsung mini-split systems offer excellent alternatives. Mini-splits provide efficient cooling without extensive ductwork. Call 423-271-6515 to discuss whether mini-splits suit your Sweetwater home better than traditional AC installation.

Regular maintenance extends equipment life and maintains efficiency. We recommend pre-season tune-ups before summer cooling season, monthly filter changes, and professional coil cleaning annually. Our residential Club Membership include seasonal tune-ups, filter changes, and discounts on repairs. Proper maintenance preserves your warranty coverage.

Federal tax credits and Tennessee utility rebates are available for high-efficiency Armstrong ProTeam systems, though programs change annually.
