Our AC & Cooling Service Process
Diagnosis
We thoroughly diagnose the issue — checking refrigerant levels, electrical connections, airflow, and component condition. No guessing, no unnecessary parts.
Honest Assessment
We tell you whether repair or replacement makes financial sense based on the system's age, repair cost, and efficiency. We don't push replacements when a $200 repair will solve the problem.
Professional Service
Whether it's an AC tune-up, repair, or new air conditioning installation, our licensed technicians complete the work to manufacturer specifications with quality parts.
Verification
We verify the cooling system is running properly, check temperature differential across the coil, and confirm proper airflow at every register before we leave.
Air Conditioning Cost Factors
AC and cooling costs depend on whether you need a tune-up, repair, or replacement:
- AC tune-up: $89-$150 for a comprehensive seasonal inspection
- Repair costs: $150-$1,500 depending on the issue
- Common repairs: capacitor ($150-$300), refrigerant recharge ($200-$600), blower motor ($300-$800)
- New air conditioning installation: $4,000-$12,000 depending on size and efficiency
- High-efficiency (18+ SEER2) cooling systems cost more upfront but save significantly on energy bills
- Ductwork modifications add $500-$3,000 if needed
AC Installation & Repair FAQs
Should I repair or replace my AC?
General rule: if the repair costs more than 50% of a new system and your unit is over 10 years old, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Units over 15 years old should generally be replaced regardless of repair cost due to efficiency improvements in modern systems.
How long does a new AC installation take?
Most residential AC installations are completed in 1 day. If ductwork modifications are needed, it may take 2 days. We schedule installations promptly, especially during summer when you need it most.
What SEER rating should I choose?
The current minimum is 15 SEER. We recommend 16-18 SEER for the best balance of efficiency and cost. Higher SEER ratings (20+) offer the lowest operating costs but have a longer payback period. We'll calculate the savings for your specific situation.
Do you offer emergency AC repair?
Yes. We provide same-day emergency AC repair service. Call (502) 921-3777 and we'll dispatch a technician as quickly as possible, especially during dangerous heat events.
Why Choose Hadley Energy Solutions?
We diagnose accurately and give honest recommendations. If a $200 capacitor will fix your system, we'll tell you — we don't push $8,000 replacements when they're not needed. And when you do need a new system, we size it correctly with Manual J calculations so you get the right equipment, not just the most expensive option.
