Up to 20+ SEER2
Older units run around 8–10 SEER. A new high-efficiency air conditioner does the same cooling on a fraction of the electricity, and that shows up on the bill every hot month, not just once.

Why replace
What a new AC actually gets you
If your air conditioner is 10+ years old, running loud, or struggling on the hot days, a modern high-efficiency system cools better for less, and takes the July breakdown off the table.
Lower bills
Comfort
Even cooling, less humidity
Two-stage and variable-speed systems run longer and gentler, so they actually pull the humidity out of that sticky Michigan air instead of just blasting cold. No more clammy rooms over the garage.
Reliability
No breakdown in July
Aging condensers quit on the hottest day of the year. That's not luck, that's load. A new system takes that gamble off the table for the next couple of decades.
Refrigerant
On today's refrigerant
New systems run on today's low-GWP refrigerant (R-454B), not the R-410A that's being phased down. Replace now and you're not buying into a dead-end system where the refrigerant only gets pricier.
Rebates
Money back on efficiency
Qualifying high-efficiency air conditioners and heat pumps can earn utility and federal efficiency rebates. We tell you what's on the table the week you buy and fill out the paperwork for you.
Warranty
Covered for the long haul
New systems carry a manufacturer parts warranty (10 years on most, compressor included), and we register it for you so it's actually valid when you need it.
Our crew on a West Michigan AC install
The Rockit difference
Why homeowners pick us over the big names
An AC is only as good as the install. Most callbacks and warm-house complaints come from a system that was guessed at, not sized, or a charge that was eyeballed instead of weighed. We do it the right way, every time.
- Manual J on every job. A real, room-by-room load calculation on every install, and a coil matched to your furnace and ductwork, so the AC fits your house, not the sticker on the old one.
- An expert crew, 30+ years deep. The tech who quotes it is on site the day it's installed. Same faces, start to finish.
- Attention to detail most crews skip. We pull a proper vacuum, weigh in the exact charge, test the airflow, cover your floors, and leave the place cleaner than we found it.
- Fixed, written price. Three itemized options with the monthly payment next to each. No surprise line items on the invoice.
- Comfortmaker Elite Dealer. Certified on the equipment we install, with permits, inspection, and warranty registration handled for you.

Straight answers
AC replacement questions, answered
How much does a new air conditioner cost in West Michigan?
It depends on the size of your home, the efficiency level, and whether the coil or any ductwork needs to change. We quote a fixed, written price after a real Manual J load calculation (three itemized options with the monthly payment printed next to each), so you see the number before anything is ordered.
How long does an AC replacement take?
Most AC replacements are a one-day job. We cover the floors, recover the old refrigerant, pull the old condenser and coil, set and braze in the new system, pull a vacuum, weigh in the exact charge, and test it before we leave.
Should I replace my AC or repair it?
A quick rule of thumb: multiply the AC's age by the repair cost. Past about $5,000, the repair stops paying for itself. Air conditioners over 10–15 years old (especially older R-410A units where refrigerant is getting expensive) are usually better replaced than patched.
Should I replace the furnace or coil at the same time?
Sometimes, and we'll be straight with you about it. A new AC has to be matched to your indoor coil and blower to hit its rated efficiency and keep the warranty valid. If your furnace is also near the end, doing both together often costs less than two separate visits. If it isn't, we'll tell you that too.
Do I have to replace my AC if it uses R-410A refrigerant?
Not immediately. Your current unit keeps running, and R-410A is still available to service it. But it's being phased down, so that refrigerant gets pricier and harder to get over time. New systems we install run on today's low-GWP refrigerant (R-454B), so a replacement now isn't buying into a dead-end system.
