The need for a new AC system becomes evident when your current unit can no longer keep up with Oshtemo’s warm summer temperatures. Whether your old system is struggling with energy efficiency, frequent breakdowns, or simply failing to cool your home effectively, installing a new AC can significantly enhance your comfort. A reliable AC system is crucial for maintaining a consistent indoor climate, especially during the hottest months. As you prepare for this upgrade, understanding what to expect during the installation process can make the transition smooth and stress-free.

The AC installation process is a multifaceted endeavor that ensures your new system operates at peak performance. The journey begins long before the actual installation day, involving careful planning and preparation. After selecting the right system for your home, the physical installation requires methodical steps to guarantee optimal results. Knowing the ins and outs of these procedures can give you peace of mind, knowing you’re making a worthy investment in your home’s comfort.

Preparing for Your AC Installation

Before the installation day arrives, there are several preparations you should consider to facilitate a smooth process. The first step involves collaborating with professionals to select the best unit size and type for your home. A system that’s too large or too small might lead to inefficiencies and potential issues down the line. Consult with our technicians to ensure you choose the right AC system tailored to your specific cooling needs.

Next, consider the best location for your new unit. Positioning your AC correctly is vital for its efficiency and longevity. Ideally, the outdoor unit should be placed in a shaded area away from obstructions, allowing for proper airflow. Indoors, consider accessibility for maintenance and minimal disruption to daily activities. Our professionals can guide you on the optimal placement for both functionality and convenience.

To ensure your home is ready for installation, clear the area around the existing unit, if applicable. Remove any decor or obstacles that might hinder the technicians’ work. Additionally, secure pets and make sure children are informed about the process to avoid accidents.

Checklist for AC Installation Preparation:

1. Verify with our technicians that you have chosen the right AC system size and type.
2. Discuss the optimal location for the outdoor and indoor units.
3. Clear the workspace around your current AC unit and prepare for technician arrivals.
4. Secure pets and inform family members about the upcoming installation.
5. Ensure electrical connections and access points are prepared for the new unit.

By taking these preparatory steps, you pave the way for an efficient installation process, minimizing disruptions and ensuring your new AC system provides immediate benefits upon installation.

What Happens During the Installation

On the installation day, expect our technicians to arrive on time and begin with setting up their equipment. We understand that having technicians around might feel intrusive, so know that we aim to be as unobtrusive as possible while getting everything done efficiently. The team first ensures all safety protocols are in place, prioritizing both your family’s and their safety.

If you have an old system, the technicians will carefully remove it without causing any disruption to your home. This is where the choice of the unit becomes key. A new AC system meant for your space will smoothly replace the old one, fitting right into place. The installation of the new AC involves precise connection to your home’s electrical and ductwork systems, effectively setting the stage for optimal performance. A thorough check-up follows, where our team conducts preliminary tests to ensure everything is running perfectly.

Post-Installation Procedures

Once your new AC system is up and running, final checks and fine-tuning ensure everything is functioning as it should. Our technicians will walk you through the main features of your new AC. Understanding your system is important. A brief tutorial on the unit’s controls will empower you with the knowledge to adjust settings successfully and maintain comfort.

Maintenance tips are also shared to help you get the most out of your new system. While a professional maintenance plan is advisable, there are also simple actions you can take. For instance, regularly changing or cleaning the air filters and keeping the outdoor unit free of debris can significantly affect efficiency and air quality. This ongoing maintenance is key to longevity, optimizing your investment in your home comfort.

Ensuring Optimal Performance

Regular maintenance is essential to keep your new AC system running smoothly. Scheduling routine check-ups allows for adjustments and catching minor issues before they escalate. These check-ups ensure that your system is always in prime condition, providing consistent comfort.

Recognizing the signs of a well-functioning AC is simple. You should experience even cooling throughout your home, minimal noise, and efficient energy use. If anything seems off, calling for an inspection promptly can prevent long-term damage and costlier repairs.

Additionally, optimizing energy use can lead to significant savings. Consider setting your thermostat a few degrees higher during the day when no one is home, and using ceiling fans to circulate air. Minor adjustments contribute to substantial improvements not only in your energy bills but also in the environmental impact of your home.

Enjoying Your New AC System

With your new AC system in place, the improvement in comfort and air quality will be evident right away. A professionally installed AC system has the ability to transform the indoor environment, creating a haven of coolness during hot days. Beyond temperature control, an updated system can also improve air quality by better filtering allergens and pollutants, offering a much healthier indoor space.

The long-term benefits of maintaining your AC extend beyond immediate comfort. A well-maintained unit operates efficiently, reduces energy consumption, and prolongs the lifespan of the system itself. With proper care, you will enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing you have invested wisely in your home’s comfort and value.

In the past 18 months, Adams has installed a new Amana air conditioning system, and new filtration and humidification systems at my home. The installers were all very courteous, professional and knowledgeable. Their work was simply superb... reasonably priced, and performed on time and to perfection! I enthusiastically recommend Adams, without reservation!

Called these guys off of a referral from a friend. Home furnace failure in sub-zero temperatures, late at night. Dan was there in an hour. Friendly, polite, professional and most importantly, very competent. Diagnosed and fixed the problem in under an hour. After hours 24/7 pricing was surprisingly reasonable. This outfit gets straight A+ from us.

Excellent service! We had them replace our heater, AC, and water heater as a package deal. They even helped with financing as it was a large expense to address at one time. It left us with peace of mind that all the mechanicals in our home were new!

They have always been there for us and did so again by responding quickly to put in a new furnace after a lighting strike caused a power surge. In addition, their electrician came by to help with other issues caused by the strike. Everyone we work with from the who answers the phone to who shows up to complete the work are polite, pleasant and professional! And quick to respond and on time!

After 28 years I have chosen to look into other companies very disappointed in how I was spoken to over the phone. It’s still under warranty and I was left with no heat on Thursday and labor and a trip charge of $180 is ridiculous, I wasn’t charged for parts. I have it serviced every fall for peace of mind

I had a boiler and water heater replacement/upgrade. I went from an 84% efficient boiler to a 95% efficient. I dont recall the water heater's efficiency. That was upgraded to an indirect water heater. Josh and Brad did a great job. The work looks great. The boiler and water heater work as to be expected. Their customer service is excellent. I will definitely be calling then when my basement remodel is ready to start.

I have had Adam's Heating and Cooling out at my house before, so I called them for some gas line work. The estimator was very helpful and let me know the best way to be ready for when the work is scheduled so they can test the generator after they install the gas line to the meter and also let me know how to take care of another issue I had that would be helpful. I look forward to getting this work done and working with them.
