Getting a new air conditioner is a relief from all that summer heat. While the process of installing it is up to the professionals, there are still somethings you can do to prepare for this new system. If you have your home ready for the air conditioner, the installation will go much faster and you will be in your air conditioned comfort quicker.

One of the things to do before AC Installation in Hillsboro is to clear out the area where the unit is going to sit. This means getting rid of grass, rocks, overgrown bushes or any other debris. If you are going to put it on a concrete base, you need to have that base poured and cured before the air conditioning unit is ready to be installed. It will take at least a day for the concrete to dry, so make sure you do this before you schedule your complete installation.

Another thing to make sure to do is to prepare your home for potential work on the ducting system. If you already have a ducting system in place, then you probably won’t need to have new vents installed. But if you need an entirely new ducting system for the unit, be aware that holes will be cut in the ceiling. So, you do want to protect any furniture from debris from the installation process.

Since the unit will also be installed electrically, you may need to have an electrician come in before the AC Installation in Hillsboro to ensure that your electrical system can adequately handle the load of an air conditioning unit. You may need to have an additional breaker installed just for that system as well. While this can be done on installation day, it is usually better to have the electrical system ready to go just in case any other issue is discovered.

There are many advantages in having an air conditioning unit. But in order to get it up and running quickly, you need to be ready for the installation.
