Benefits of a New Air Conditioning System
A new air conditioning system will keep your Taunton, MA, home safe and comfortable during the hotter months in Options State. It will also run more efficiently and potentially lower your energy bills.
Older air conditioning units tend to run longer and use more electricity. A new air conditioner, especially a variable-speed model, uses less electricity, saving you money.
How Long Does an Air Conditioning Unit Last?
Your air conditioning system might turn on and off, but that does not mean you are getting the best value for your money in terms of comfort and energy savings. Central air conditioners lose efficiency as they age.
Parts wear out, and air conditioning repairs are more frequent.
As your air conditioning unit struggles to maintain efficiency, it uses more energy and increases electricity spending. More frequent repairs will have you opening your wallet again and again.
Well-maintained central air conditioners can last 10 to 15 years before they slow down, although ENERGY STAR® recommends setting a replacement budget for a unit “more than 10 years old.”
Understanding SEER2 Ratings
SEER2 stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2, a rating that measures a cooling system’s energy efficiency. The higher the SEER2 number, the greater the energy efficiency.
Different parts of the country have different rating standards based on the climate and how hot it gets outdoors. For example, new central air conditioners must have a minimum 13.4 SEER2 rating in the northern states and 14.3 in the southwest.
How Long Does Air Conditioner Installation Take?
Our licensed air conditioning installers at Definition Heating, Cooling & Plumbing typically have a new system in service in under one day. The installation may take a bit longer if we need to extend ductwork or do a little extra to facilitate the best use of your new energy-efficient air conditioner.
When Is the Best Time to Buy a New Air Conditioner?
Early spring or fall is the best time to call for new air conditioning installation with little wait. But any time you need one is the best answer. We can install a new air conditioner throughout the year in your Taunton, MA, home.
Also, if you need a new heating system, replacing your cooling system at the same time is generally more cost-effective in terms of installation costs and vice versa.

Air Conditioning Installation FAQs
“Ben and Andrew were fantastic! We had two AC condensers and handlers installed at our house. They let us know when they were arriving and were on time. Walked me through everything they would be doing clearly and were very respectful of our home during the installation. They finished early on day two and spent time showing me the new equipment. Also, Leo who originally came to our house to give us a quote was excellent. He was thorough which made the installation flawless. Finally, Laura has been very easy to work with in terms of payment. Highly recommended!”

“We just had a heat pump installed in our in-law and everything is working well. We were pleased with the responsiveness of the team at Definition and their ability to do the work so quickly. Their knowledge of rebates and options for our space was impressive. We are customers for life now with our new maintenance plan! Thank you!”

“I knew our system needed to be upgraded and had been talking to different companies over the last year. Some companies took weeks to respond to my inquiries, some couldn’t answer the most basic questions. When I called Definition I got an immediate response by a knowledgeable person who was able to answer all my question. Their price was fair and I felt good about the people and company I was dealing with. They were on time and courteous. My new system is running great and with their maintenance program I know it will be working well for years to come.”
