AC Installation & Replacement in Shreveport, LA
A new air conditioner is a 15-year decision. We size it, install it, and stand behind it like we'll be the ones servicing it — because we will be.
AC Replacement Done Right the First Time
Most air conditioners in Northwest Louisiana don't die of old age — they die of being oversized, undersized, or slapped in without care. An oversized unit short-cycles, never runs long enough to pull the humidity out of the air, and leaves your house cold and clammy even in August. An undersized unit runs nonstop through a Shreveport heat wave and burns itself out early. Either mistake costs you comfort and money every single month.
That's why every installation we do starts with a proper load calculation. We measure your home's square footage, insulation levels, window area and orientation, duct condition, and ceiling heights — not a guess based on "what was there before." Homes around Cross Lake and the older pier-and-beam houses in South Highlands often need duct repairs or returns added before a new system can perform the way it should, and we tell you that upfront.
What Our Installations Include
- Manual J load calculation matched to your actual home
- High-efficiency systems that cut summer power bills
- New pad, disconnect, whip, and refrigerant line flush or replacement
- Full commissioning: refrigerant charge verified, airflow measured, thermostat programmed
- All permits and code compliance handled for you
We'll show you good-better-best options with real numbers — installed price, estimated monthly operating cost at Louisiana summer rates, and warranty terms — so you can make the call that fits your budget. No pressure toward the most expensive box on the truck.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a new AC cost installed in Shreveport?
A complete central AC replacement in the Shreveport area typically runs $5,500 to $12,000 depending on system size, efficiency rating, and ductwork condition. We provide free in-home quotes with exact pricing after measuring your home — no ballpark guessing.
How long does an AC installation take?
A straightforward changeout — same location, sound ductwork — is usually done in one day. Jobs that include duct modifications, electrical upgrades, or a system relocation typically take two days. We tell you the timeline before we start and we don't leave you without cooling overnight in summer.
What size AC does my house need?
It depends on far more than square footage — insulation, windows, ceiling height, duct leakage, and shade from Shreveport's big oaks and pines all matter. That's why we run a Manual J calculation instead of using a rule of thumb. Many homes we visit have units a full ton larger than they need.
