AC Installation in Holly Springs, GA
Eleven free-flow minutes up the interstate, in the newest housing in the county. That newness is worth more to a replacement than most people expect.
You are probably replacing equipment on ductwork that is actually good
The largest block of housing here was built between 2010 and 2019, which means the duct systems we open are the youngest we see anywhere. That is unusually good news for a replacement, because on most of our jobs the honest finding is that the ducts are the limiting factor and the equipment can only be as good as what is downstream of it. Here it is frequently the other way round: measure the static pressure, find it inside the manufacturer's range, and the whole menu opens up. Variable-capacity equipment, which needs a duct system that can actually carry low-speed airflow without the pressure climbing, is genuinely worth considering in this town in a way it is not in a 1980s house with one central return. We still measure before we quote — a builder-grade run of flex crushed behind a stack of boxes is a builder-grade run of flex whatever year it went in — but here the measurement usually comes back on your side.
The same thing is true wherever you are
New equipment on a bad duct system reproduces the complaint you already have at a higher price. Static pressure takes twenty minutes to measure and it decides whether a replacement will actually fix what you called about, so we measure it before we quote equipment rather than after you are unhappy. And one thing we will not do: tell you how many years your new system will last. There is no authoritative published service-life figure for this equipment — none, from anybody — so every number you have been quoted for that was somebody's estimate wearing a lab coat. What we can tell you is what we found, what we measured, and what the manufacturer's terms actually say.

Questions people ask
How long does a straight changeout take?
One day for a single system with no duct modification, usually eight to ten hours. If the plenum has to be rebuilt, the line set replaced through a finished ceiling, or the electrical service touched, it goes to two days and we tell you that before you sign.
What actually changes the price?
Duct modification, line-set replacement versus flush-and-reuse, electrical upgrades, code corrections the inspector will look for, a second system, and how hard the equipment is to get to. The published range below covers a straight replacement and says what it excludes.
Can you reuse my existing line set?
Sometimes. It depends on the diameter against the new equipment, its condition, and what refrigerant ran through it. A line set that carried a burned-out compressor's acid should not carry a new one. We flush and pressure-test it, or we replace it, and we tell you which before we quote it — not after we open the wall.
Do I need a permit?
Yes. There is no state permit requirement in Georgia — the state deletes the administrative chapter that would create one — but every jurisdiction we work in requires a mechanical permit for equipment replacement, and the permit is in our price. In Cherokee County it is a flat mechanical service permit issued only to state-licensed technicians.
What does the warranty actually cover?
The parts warranty is the manufacturer's, not ours, and its length depends on registration. Read the registration terms below — the number people quote and the number you get are two different things unless somebody files the paperwork.
