What your AC installation includes

A new air conditioner only performs as well as the install behind it. We start with an in-home assessment of your space, ductwork and comfort problems, then size and design the system around what we measure.

On install day we handle the equipment, line set, condensate, electrical and thermostat, then commission and test the system. We register the manufacturer warranty and show you how to run and maintain it.

  • Personalized assessment: square footage, ceiling height, insulation and sun exposure
  • Manual J load calculation plus Manual D and Manual S sizing
  • Central air, heat pump, packaged unit and ductless mini-split options
  • High-SEER2 systems: 16+, 18+ and 20+ SEER2, variable-speed and two-stage
  • Ductwork inspection and modification where airflow or static pressure needs it
  • Refrigerant line set, condensate management and electrical work
  • Smart thermostat setup: Nest, Ecobee, Honeywell and manufacturer controls
  • Commissioning, system testing and manufacturer warranty registration

Trusted across Bryan, College Station and the Brazos Valley

“I recently had to do a full HVAC replacement. I got quotes locally in the BCS area and from Houston. Central Air & Refrigeration came out the next day. Alex was very straightforward and didn’t try to oversell anything to me. I had a minor issue after install and again the very next day Alex was back and remedied the issue fast. He even checked back in a few days later to make sure everything was still working great. 10/10 on service. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”

“This HVAC contractor did a fantastic job installing our new system—efficient, professional, and knowledgeable. They provided excellent service and ensured everything was working perfectly before they left.”
Maggie Flowers
“I have used this service for many years. They are dependable and honest. They arrive on time and provide excellent service. This past summer my unit went out. If you live in south Texas, you will remember how very hot it was and there was no rain. I was so very grateful for the employees of Central Texas Air. I know nothing about these systems, and told them. They explained the differences in a 3 vs 4 ton and the size needed for the house of my size. They quickly got the new system in and installed. They also told me about the City of College Station rebate program. I looked into the program, submitted the documents, and received the rebate. I highly recommend this company.”

Frequently asked questions

How much does AC installation cost?

It depends on the size of your home, the system you pick, the efficiency level and any ductwork changes needed. We assess your home first and give you clear, transparent pricing before any work starts. Financing is available through approved partners.

Do I need to replace my AC or can it be repaired?

We look at the age, condition and repair history of your current unit and tell you straight. We repair as well as install, so if a repair is the better choice for you, we will say so.

What size AC unit do I need?

We do not guess. We run a Manual J load calculation using your square footage, ceiling height, insulation, ductwork and sun exposure. An oversized unit short-cycles and an undersized one never keeps up.

Which brands do you install?

Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, Bryant, American Standard, York, Mitsubishi, Daikin, LG, Fujitsu and Bosch, including high-SEER2 and variable-speed models.

Do you install ductless mini-splits too?

Yes. We install single-zone and multi-zone ductless mini-split systems, plus heat pumps, packaged units and gas-pack or dual-fuel systems.

What areas do you cover?

We are based at 4509 N Texas Ave in Bryan and serve Bryan, College Station, the Texas A&M area, Brazos County, Hearne, Caldwell, Navasota, Madisonville and the wider Brazos Valley.
