AC Installation in Broomfield
Getting a new air conditioning system is one of the bigger investments you'll make in your home, and who installs it matters just as much as what gets installed.
At True Heating & Cooling, we've been doing this work since 2016, and our approach has never changed: give people honest advice, size and install the system correctly the first time, and stand behind every job we do.
We're a locally owned team of NATE-certified technicians, an official Lennox dealer, and BBB-accredited with an A+ Rating. Whether you're replacing an aging unit or installing central air for the first time, we'll make sure you end up with the right system for your home and your budget. Request a free estimate or call us at (720) 637-5157. We'd be happy to walk you through your options.
Is It Time to Replace Your AC System?
Not every AC decision is an emergency, but most replacement decisions do have a tipping point. Here’s how to know:
Your system is 10 to 15 years old and increasingly unreliable.
Air conditioners typically don't fail all at once; they give plenty of signals first. If you're calling for repairs more frequently, if the system struggles to keep up on warm days, or if certain rooms just never seem to cool down the way they used to, age is likely catching up with your equipment. At some point, continued repairs stop making financial sense when a new, more efficient system would pay for itself in lower energy and maintenance costs.
Your energy bills have been climbing without a clear reason.
Older systems lose efficiency gradually, and homeowners often don't notice because the change is incremental. If your summer electricity bills are significantly higher than they were a few years ago (accounting for rate increases), your AC is likely working much harder than it should be to do the same job. A properly sized, properly installed modern system can make a difference in your monthly costs.
Your system uses R-22 refrigerant.
R-22 (Freon) was phased out of production, which means it's both expensive and increasingly difficult to source. If your system still relies on it, continued repairs and refrigerant top-offs will only get more costly over time. Replacing the system eliminates that ongoing expense entirely.
Your home doesn't have central air.
Many older homes in Broomfield were built without central cooling. If you're relying on window units or just tolerating the heat, we can assess your existing ductwork—or discuss ductless mini-split options if your home isn't set up for traditional central air—and help you figure out the most practical and cost-effective path to whole-home comfort.
You're planning to sell or significantly renovate your home.
A new, efficient AC system is a meaningful selling point and a genuine quality-of-life upgrade. We offer free estimates on all new installations, so you’ll have the full picture of what your investment would be before committing to anything.
Important Facts to Know Before an AC Installation
A lot of homeowners focus heavily on which brand or model to buy, which matters, but the installation itself is equally important to how well your system performs and how long it lasts. This is where cutting corners costs you.
Sizing the Right Air Conditioner
An air conditioner that's too large for your home will cool it quickly but shut off before it has a chance to properly remove humidity, leaving the air feeling clammy and putting unnecessary wear on the compressor through constant start-stop cycling. An undersized unit will run almost continuously, never quite catching up on the hottest days and driving up your energy bill in the process. Proper sizing requires a real load calculation that accounts for your home's square footage, ceiling heights, insulation, window placement, sun exposure, and local climate. We do this work carefully before recommending any equipment.
Equipment Selection
Equipment selection should match the specific conditions of your home. As an official Lennox dealer, we have direct access to Lennox's full residential lineup of equipment that’s known for energy efficiency, quiet operation, and long-term reliability.
Our NATE-certified technicians are trained and equipped to work with all makes and models, so if you have specific preferences or existing equipment considerations, we'll give you honest guidance rather than just pointing you toward the most expensive option on the shelf.
What the Installation Process Looks Like
- The Assessment: We’ll come out to conduct a proper assessment of your home. We're not going to quote you a system over the phone without understanding your home's layout, existing ductwork, and cooling needs. This is where we take measurements, evaluate your current setup, and ask you about your priorities, like energy efficiency, budget, noise levels, smart thermostat compatibility, and anything else that matters to you.
- Presenting Options: We'll explain the differences between our recommendations, why one system might make more sense for your situation than another, and what the total investment looks like, including available financing options. We’re not in the business of applying pressure tactics or upselling you on something you don’t really need. If a mid-tier system does everything your home needs, we'll tell you that.
- Installation: On installation day, our team shows up on time, in uniform, and with everything we need to complete the job. We work efficiently and meticulously, keep your home clean throughout the process, and protect your property the way we'd want ours protected. A typical AC installation is completed in a single day, though timing can vary depending on ductwork modifications or other factors specific to your home.
- System Testing & Walkthrough: Before we leave, we’ll test the system’s airflow, temperature control, refrigerant charge, and thermostat calibration to make sure everything is operating as it should. We'll walk you through how your new system works, answer any questions you have, and make sure you feel confident before we head out.
Financing Options for Your New AC System
A new AC system is a significant purchase, which is why we offer flexible financing through Service Finance Company, LLC, a nationally licensed sales finance company and approved FHA Title I lender.
We also provide a 10% discount for veterans, active military members, and seniors. It's a small way to acknowledge the people who've given a lot to this community.
And because this is a significant decision, all new AC installations come with a free estimate. No commitment, no pressure — just honest information so you can make the right call for your home.
Protect Your New System from Day One
Once your new system is installed, the best thing you can do is keep it properly maintained. Colorado's climate—with cold, dry winters and warm, dusty summers—puts real demand on HVAC equipment year-round, and regular maintenance is what keeps a well-installed system running efficiently for the long haul.
Our maintenance plans are designed to catch small issues early, keep your system operating at peak efficiency, and protect your investment. Ask us about plan options when we come out for your estimate.
