Summary

Swapping out an aging AC system in Tucson can make a real difference in comfort and energy use, especially as temperatures climb. This project focused on replacing an older 5 ton unit with a modern, high-efficiency model to help the property stay cool while reducing power consumption.

The Work

Removed all existing AC equipment and safely disposed of outdated components
Installed a new 18+ SEER2 variable speed AC unit designed to adjust power as needed and lower energy usage
Upgraded sheet metal transitions with insulated, mastic-sealed ductwork for improved airflow
Added a new gas sediment trap, shut-off valve, safety switch, and electrical connections according to manufacturer specs
Fitted the system with a 1" pleated filter at the unit base or grille

The Outcome

The property now benefits from a quieter, more efficient cooling system that adapts to changing conditions and helps keep utility bills in check. Upgraded ductwork and sealed joints further improve system performance and indoor comfort. The new unit is covered by extended warranties for added peace of mind.
