But you might be wondering how much it will cost. After all, this project is not a cheap one by any means. This blog will take a look at the cost of HVAC units to help you get a better idea of how much a new air conditioning system will cost for you.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/airprosusa.com\/central-air-conditioning-services\/ac-installs\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AC unit replacement <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">costs <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vary from home to home, But we hope that the information provided below will help you gauge a better understanding of these fees and have a ballpark estimate of the number you will owe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Average Costs to Replace an AC<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replacing an air conditioning system requires the proper equipment, professional labor, and many other considerations to ensure that you are comfortable in your home all year. On average, a new HVAC can cost you between $5,000 to $12,500; with the national average around $7,000.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Factors Affecting <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AC Unit Replacement Costs<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The total cost to replace an AC unit will represent a variety of factors like the size of your unit, whether you\u2019re using a central or multi-split system, and even the unit\u2019s manufacturer. When you go through this process, the technician providing the service should be able to lay out the costs in an itemized list that outline the following types of factors:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Type of System Being Used\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The type of HVAC system you use to cool and heat your home will have a great impact on replacement costs. Central air conditioning normally costs higher than a multi-split system, but it offers the convenience of providing consistent temperatures throughout the entire home. Multi-split systems usually cool or heat one room at a time. Both types of units have their advantages and disadvantages and their price points are driven by efficiency rates and the labor that goes into installing each unit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cost of the Actual Unit<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, the air conditioning unit itself has its own price tag. The cost of that AC unit itself will depend on its efficiency levels, the manufacture, and any warranties that go along with it. For the new unit, you can expect to see a cost between $1000-$10,000 depending on its size and brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you choose your unit, it is also important to consider long-term maintenance of your AC as this will play a big role in your finances down the road.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Labor\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AC unit replacement costs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are also driven by the labor that goes into installing a new unit. The installation process can take anywhere between 1-3 days, depending on the amount of work that will be required. Bigger homes require extra labor and materials.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removal and Disposal<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re having your unit replaced, you may be charged a fee to remove and dispose of the older model in your home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not sure if your unit needs replacing? Check out these <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/airprosusa.com\/reasons-to-consider-replacing-your-hvac-today\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reasons why replacing your unit may be essential<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for your home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additional Costs and Considerations<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aside from the basic factors that drive AC replacement costs, there are also other nuances to keep in mind such as the ones listed below:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insulation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prior to beginning the replacement process, the technician may assess the quality of your insulation. The insulation in your home plays a big role in HVAC performance. If it requires repair or replacement, this will obviously increase the costs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ductwork<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your ductwork needs to be sealed, repaired, or replaced, your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AC unit replacement costs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will increase significantly. According to Angi, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.angi.com\/articles\/cost-to-replace-ductwork.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ductwork costs about $15 per linear foot<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and that cost will add up quickly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, if you are upgrading your home\u2019s HVAC from a multi-split system to a central air conditioning unit, your home will require ductwork to be installed. This service requires significant labor and materials, and will drive your costs up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thermostat<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some homeowners choose to upgrade their thermostats to a smarter, programmable thermostat (something we highly recommend). Obviously, a new thermostat will cost money but a smart thermostat will pay for itself as it will save you on monthly bills in the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Installing Zones<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes homeowners prefer to zone off their homes to have the temperatures be very specific to a room or basement. This will require zoning services that will need more labor and materials. Thus, it will cost you more on the total installation of your new unit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact Us for Top Rated AC Installation Services<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you in need of a new AC unit?
