AC Installation in South Florida
Whether your current system has reached the end of its life or you’re building out a new space, Elsmar Air Conditioning handles full AC installation across Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties. You’ll get flat-rate pricing before any work begins, a system sized correctly for your home, and a technician paid a flat wage instead of commission, so the recommendation is about your comfort, not a sales quota.
Signs It’s Time for a New AC System
- Your system is 10-15 years old or older
- You’re paying for frequent repairs that don’t fully solve the problem
- Your energy bills keep climbing even with normal use
- Some rooms are always warmer than others
- Your system uses R-22 refrigerant, which is being phased out
- The unit is undersized or oversized for your home’s square footage
Our Installation Process
We start with a real assessment of your home, square footage, insulation, ductwork condition, and cooling needs, rather than just swapping in a same-size replacement. Our technicians walk you through your options and their trade-offs in plain language, and you’ll approve a flat-rate price before installation begins. During the install, every system is set up according to manufacturer specifications and tested thoroughly before we consider the job done, so you’re not left finding out something’s wrong a week later.
Systems We Install
- Central air conditioning systems
- Heat pumps for combined heating and cooling
- Ductless mini-split systems
- High-efficiency SEER2-rated units
- New construction and full system replacements
Not sure which type fits your home? See our pages on heat pump installation and ductless mini-splits for a closer look at each option.
Financing Available
A full system replacement is a real expense, and we don’t think a failed AC should force you to choose between comfort and your budget. We offer flexible financing options for a range of budgets and credit types, so you can move forward with a new system on terms that work for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does AC installation take?
Most single-system residential installations are completed in a single day. More complex jobs, like ductwork replacement alongside the new system, may take longer, and we’ll give you a clear timeline upfront.
How do I know what size system I need?
Our technicians calculate the right size based on your home’s square footage, layout, insulation, and sun exposure, not just a rule of thumb. An undersized or oversized system both waste energy and wear out faster.
Do you remove and dispose of my old unit?
Yes, removal and disposal of your old system is included as part of the installation.
Is a warranty included?
New systems come with manufacturer warranty coverage, and we’ll walk you through exactly what’s covered before installation so there are no surprises later.

Why Choose Elsmar for Your New System
Elsmar Air Conditioning is a State Certified Class “A” Air Conditioning Contractor, fully licensed and insured for residential and commercial installation work. We’re a locally owned, family-run company, not a franchise routing your call through an out-of-state office, so the same company that installs your system is the one you’ll call for maintenance and support afterward. If you’re a first responder or educator, ask about our Hero Program, which includes a free maintenance membership on top of your new system.
Should I repair my old system or replace it?
It depends on the age of your system, the cost of the repair, and how often you’ve had issues. Our technician will give you an honest comparison of both options and what each one actually costs over time, rather than just pushing a new sale.
Can I get a new AC system installed the same week I call?
In many cases, yes. Once you approve a flat-rate quote, we work to schedule installation as quickly as possible, especially if your current system has already failed and you’re without cooling.
Do you install commercial AC systems too?
Yes, alongside residential work we handle commercial installations as a State Certified Class “A” Air Conditioning Contractor, licensed for both.
What if my ductwork needs work too?
We check duct condition as part of every installation. If leaks or damage are affecting your new system’s efficiency, we’ll flag it and give you a straightforward quote to address it, see our ductwork page for details.
