Frequently Asked Questions
How is the right AC size determined for my home?
Brian's Heating & Cooling, Inc. performs Manual J load calculations—factoring in square footage, insulation, and sun exposure—to recommend the correct tonnage.
What should I do to prepare for installation day?
Clear indoor and outdoor work areas, ensure electrical access, trim vegetation around the condenser, and secure pets for a smooth install.
How long does a typical installation take?
Most residential installs finish in one day—including removal of old equipment, new system setup, safety checks, and a final walkthrough.
What energy-efficient options should I consider?
ENERGY STAR® units, variable-speed compressors, smart thermostats, and proper duct sealing help maximize savings and comfort.
Are permits required for AC installation in Madera?
Local building permits are typically needed. Brian's Heating & Cooling, Inc. handles all permit applications and ensures compliance with Madera County codes.
How do I know if I need a new AC system?
There are many factors to consider, including the age of the current system and the cost of any non-covered repairs. It’s often better to replace if you need an expensive non-covered repair or the AC uses a phased-out refrigerant.
If you’re planning ahead, we recommend scheduling us for an inspection. Our technician will perform a comprehensive inspection and provide you with an honest, professional assessment.
Can I upgrade from a standard AC to a more energy-efficient model?
Yes, if your home currently accommodates a standard AC, there should be no issues upgrading to a high-efficiency model. In addition to the unit itself, we’ll typically need to install a variable-speed air handler and a smart thermostat. Optionally, you can increase efficiency gains further with zone control, which requires duct dampers and other add-ons.
