In Washington, the installation process begins with an assessment of your home's existing ductwork and electrical capacity. We examine the square footage of your living space to determine the appropriate unit size, preventing underperformance or premature wear. Our technicians will then prepare the installation area, ensuring minimal disruption. This includes safely removing any old equipment and preparing the site for the new unit, whether it's a central air system or a ductless mini-split.
We adhere to all Washington state building codes and local Seattle ordinances regarding HVAC installations. This ensures your system operates safely and efficiently, and that all work is permitted and inspected as required. Our team handles all necessary permit applications and scheduling with local authorities. We then proceed with the physical installation, which involves mounting the outdoor condenser unit, placing the indoor air handler, and making the necessary refrigerant and electrical lines. Finally, we test the system thoroughly to confirm optimal performance and air delivery.
