This project involved a complete AC system replacement for a residential client in Jacksonville Beach whose 18-year-old air conditioning unit had finally reached the end of its lifespan. The homeowners contacted Einstein Air Services after experiencing poor cooling performance, rising energy bills, and frequent breakdowns during the hot Florida summer. Our team conducted a comprehensive assessment of their 2,400 square foot home and determined that their existing 3-ton unit was undersized and operating at only 10 SEER efficiency. After discussing their comfort needs and budget, we recommended a new high-efficiency 16 SEER system with proper sizing to ensure optimal cooling throughout their home. The installation took place over two days, with our Einstein-certified technicians carefully removing the old equipment, upgrading the ductwork connections, and installing the new system with precision. We also added a smart thermostat to give the homeowners better control over their comfort and energy usage. The result was immediate—the home cooled faster, temperatures remained consistent in every room, and the client reported a 35% reduction in their monthly electricity costs.
The Jacksonville Beach home presented several challenges that required our expertise and problem-solving approach. The attic space where the air handler was located had limited access, making removal of the old unit and installation of the new equipment particularly demanding. Additionally, the existing ductwork showed signs of deterioration with several leaks that were contributing to inefficiency. Our team identified these issues during the initial assessment and included duct sealing and insulation improvements in our proposal. We also discovered that the electrical panel needed upgrading to safely handle the new high-efficiency system. By coordinating with a licensed electrician, we ensured all electrical work met current code requirements. The homeowners were concerned about the installation timeline, as they had elderly parents visiting. Our crew worked efficiently, completing the removal on day one and the installation on day two, ensuring the home had working AC each night.
The transformation was remarkable. Within hours of completing the installation, the homeowners noticed the difference in cooling performance throughout their entire home. Rooms that previously stayed warm now reached comfortable temperatures quickly. The new system operated much quieter than their old unit, eliminating the loud rattling and grinding noises they had grown accustomed to. The smart thermostat allowed them to create custom schedules and adjust temperatures remotely from their phones, even when away from home. When their first electricity bill arrived a month later, they were thrilled to see a $127 reduction compared to the same month the previous year—despite running the AC more frequently for better comfort. The homeowners left us a glowing five-star review, praising our professionalism, cleanliness, and attention to detail. They particularly appreciated how our team protected their floors and furniture, cleaned up completely, and took time to explain every feature of their new system. Six months later, they called us back to enroll in our annual maintenance program to protect their investment and ensure continued peak performance.
