How much will it cost to replace an Air Conditioning System?

The cost to replace an air conditioning system depends on five factors:

  • The size of the system required to cool the area efficiently
  • The efficiency rating of the new air conditioning system
  • Brand of air conditioning system
  • Modification(s) required to make the system operate efficiently
  • Additional modifications requested by clients

Due to the amount of variables that dictate the actual air conditioning replacement cost, we believe the best way to be transparent is to give our clients a range of what our past clients have spent in the past to replace their air conditioning system.

How is the price for an air conditioning system determined?

The price to replace an air conditioning system is determined by the cost of the equipment, materials, and the amount of time it will take to complete the installation of the air conditioning system.

How long will it take to replace an air conditioning system?

The average time to replace an air conditioning system is between 4 and 8 hours. We replace most air conditioning systems in a single day. Any required changes and client requested services that are also being performed can increase the amount of time needed to replace an air conditioning system.

How long will you have to wait until your new air conditioner is installed?

This fluctuates with the season, but the average customer has their new air conditioning system installed the very next day. We understand that there will be emergency situations, therefore we try to leave a next day installation spot available to our clients in need of a quick turnaround.

Are you comfortable at home? If your AC isn’t providing adequate comfort, you might need a replacement. Improper maintenance can leave your home feeling too warm, and the unit isn’t strong enough or has aged to where it cannot handle your cooling needs.

Another great experience (10/23/26) with SoGood. Jeremiah did my regular preseason inspection of all the heating components and provided pictures and clear descriptions of all he found.

Today, Southern Goodman was able to send a tech by 1 after I called them at 8. The tech (Michael) kept me informed as he troubleshot my non-cooling heat pump. I was sufficiently impressed that I signed up for annual maintenance and elected to replace a fan motor that was leaking oil but still running. There was never any pressure, just a clear explanation of what they found and what was necessary.

Back in 2021, Southern Goodman was able to get a tech (Bobby was fantastic!) to our place early on the afternoon that I called for help. I had contacted two other companies who couldn't fit me in until Sunday or Monday. He quickly identified the problem and explained some routine maintenance I can do to keep it running right. Couldn't be happier, especially given the forecast for the weekend!

This is an update. Southern Goodman came for a pre-season check of the heating system. They found a minor problem that would have led to more trouble as soon as we began using the heat. The tech (Kevin and then Billy came back to help him trouble shoot) explained every step and showed me what was wrong. These guys are great!

Another update. Downstairs wasn’t keeping up with the thermostat. Upstairs quit due to water in the drain pan. Tech got here same day I called (Monday morning) and found my main vent tube in crawl space had slipped off. Crawl space was nice and cool, but nothing else! He also replace the aqua guard switch and re-ran the drain piping. 7/219/24

I'm considering an electric car and need an EV charger at home. Jacob came by to do an estimate to install. He was very kind, respectful, and knowledgeable. He inspected my panel box and walked us through everything required to install the charger before giving us multiple quote options.

Jeremiah was respectful, considerate, and passionate about his service for our system issue. He worked diligently to find a solution to a complex ongoing interruption to our Bosche unit. Parts were found and will be ordered on Monday for a hopeful and final solution to our issue. Thank you Jeremiah for your understanding while we shared the history of this particular unit and our frustrations. You were so gracious and we were very impressed with your deep professionalism.
