Air Conditioner Installation in Houston, TX
Award-winning service
Top-rated for air conditioner installation and replacement in Houston, TX, Village Plumbing, Air & Electric makes sure your new AC provides years of reliable, trouble-free cooling.
AC installation & replacement
Proper installation is the first step to ensuring you have a long-lasting AC. We know air conditioners in Houston work hard for much of the year, which increases the strain and wear on cooling systems, and even the most well-maintained units eventually need replacement.
Whether you’re installing an air conditioner for the first time or need air conditioning replacement in Houston, you can expect high-quality customer service with a 100% guarantee.
Professional Installation With Lasting Results
At Village Plumbing, Air & Electric, our AC technicians are fully licensed and trained to install an air conditioner in your home. They handle all the manual labor, from preparing for the unit and its components to be installed to lifting heavy equipment.
Another important step is sizing the system for your home, which requires a load calculation factoring in the building’s size, number of occupants, and efficiency factors such as number/size of windows and insulation.
An air conditioner that’s too big for your home doesn’t provide the benefits some people think it does. In this case, bigger isn’t better. Too large an AC will short-cycle and use more energy. It will also remove less humidity, so your home will feel warmer and damper.
An air conditioner that’s too small won’t provide enough comfort either. It will run longer, causing it to use more energy and wear out faster, increasing utility and repair bills.
Our team makes sure your AC is perfectly sized for your home, properly installed, and tested to ensure it operates as it’s designed to.

When To Replace Your Air Conditioner
Unless your air conditioner has sustained major damage or failed completely, you may have the option to repair it. Circumstances in which replacing it may be the better long-term choice include:
Old Age
After 10 or 15 years, air conditioners start to show signs of wear. But even an eight-year-old system with serious problems can be more costly to repair than it’s worth.
Houston’s summer heat can take a toll. Detailed inspections let our technicians estimate how much life your AC has left and whether replacement should be considered.
Major Damage
A poor wiring connection or worn-out fan belt doesn’t warrant replacing the entire system. There are many simple problems we can fix. But if the compressor has failed, the AC is frequently breaking down, or there are multiple repair issues, we’ll probably suggest replacement. This can save you significantly over the long term.
System Efficiency
The efficiency of HVAC systems has improved dramatically over the past few years. You could end up saving 40% by installing a high-efficiency Daikin system.
Older units weren’t as efficient and are even less so as they age. You could recoup most of the cost of a new installation over time.

Warranty Coverage
As long as your AC is covered under the manufacturer’s warranty, it still pays to have it fixed. But if the warranty has expired and major repairs are needed, the expense may not be worth it. Every warranty differs in length and the types of services covered. As a Premier Lennox Dealer, we’re authorized to repair Lennox systems with active warranty coverage.
Village Partner Plan
By signing up for our Village Partner Plan, you’ll pay an annual fee to receive biannual AC and furnace tune-ups, an annual plumbing inspection, and discounts on any service needed. You’ll also receive reminders when it’s time to schedule an inspection, ensuring your HVAC maintenance needs are met and your new AC lasts at least as long as expected.
