How Much Does a New A/C Cost?
Here are five factors that will determine how much you pay for a new air conditioner (AC):
Size
The square footage and layout of your home determine the size of your HVAC system. Air conditioner strength is measured in “tons,” a measurement that refers to the amount of heat your AC can remove in an hour. A larger home requires more tonnage.
Ratings
The term SEER stands for seasonal energy efficiency ratio. It measures how much energy your air conditioner uses to operate. Just like buying a car that gets good gas mileage (MPG) makes sense, selecting a high-efficiency AC makes good sense.
Brand
A noticeable increase in your energy bills—despite regular usage patterns—could indicate your AC unit is no longer operating efficiently and is consuming more energy than necessary.
Ductwork
If your AC struggles to keep your home cool consistently, especially during peak summer months, the unit can no longer cool your space as needed. This could be a sign that your system is nearing the end of its operational lifespan, has underlying mechanical issues, or is improperly sized for your home.
Labor
Musty or unpleasant odors coming from your AC vents consistently could indicate the presence of mold, mildew, or other contaminants in the system. Since these problems can be difficult to remedy in an old unit, you might need to go ahead and replace your unit now to save yourself the headache.
Choosing the right air conditioner for your home involves more than just picking a unit; it requires expert sizing, efficiency considerations, and an understanding of your budget. At Just Right, our certified technicians will guide you through every step to ensure your new AC system fits perfectly. We also offer seasonal specials and flexible financing options to make your investment more affordable. Get in touch today and let us help you stay cool and comfortable—just how it should be.

What is the Lifespan of Air Conditioning Systems?
In Salt Lake City’s dry desert climate, where scorching summer temperatures and dusty air are common, a high-performing air conditioning system is essential for year-round comfort. Most air conditioners last between 10 to 15 years with proper care, though factors like installation quality, daily usage, and routine maintenance can impact their lifespan. Our certified HVAC technicians ensure your AC unit is installed right the first time—and maintained regularly—so it delivers optimal cooling throughout its life.
What Type of Air Conditioning System Offers the Best Energy Efficiency?
Air conditioning systems are classified as single-stage, two-stage, or variable-speed. Each stage refers to the compressor’s mode of operation:
- Single-stage systems operate at one speed. These systems are either on or off.
- Two-stage systems have a compressor that functions at both high and low speeds. The compressor can operate at a lower level during average outdoor temperatures and then at a higher level when it’s warmer outside. Two-stage air conditioners are more efficient than one-stage.
- Variable-speed air conditioners are the most energy-efficient of all. The compressor can operate at multiple levels, ranging from lower capacity to full capacity and anything in between. With variable speeds, the system can run longer at lower speeds, controlling humidity and indoor air quality (IAQ).
How Long Does It Take to Install an Air Conditioner?
Our friendly NATE-certified technicians can install your new AC system in under one day. If we need to remove an older system or do a little extra ductwork to facilitate the best use of your new high-efficiency air conditioner, the installation service may take a bit longer.
