Air conditioning in United States ranges from $100 for a basic service to $15,000 for major installations like ducted systems. Prices exclude sales tax. Includes standard installation; complex installs may cost more.
Split systems are the most popular choice for single rooms, offering good value and efficiency. Ducted systems suit whole-home cooling but cost significantly more. Multi-split systems are a good middle ground for multiple rooms without ductwork.
Annual servicing is recommended to maintain efficiency, prevent breakdowns, and extend system lifespan. In high-use climates, twice-yearly servicing (before summer and winter) is ideal. Regular filter cleaning between services also helps.
