It is not cheaper to install AC in Edmonton in the winter, contrary to popular belief. While some ACs may be sold in the Winter, they cannot be fully installed and activated until the temperature reaches above +10° ! That means, a second visit is often needed once the weather clears up. Instead, consider saving your AC purchase until the Spring. Many companies, ProSolutions included, is gearing up for the Summer and looking forward to the early birds.
If you require air conditioner and furnace installation, having both replaced at the same time may also help you save money.

If you’re facing a frozen AC coil, there are a few things you can try. Start by setting your thermostat to high and fan only mode for a few hours. If this doesn’t work, it could be a more significant issue, such as a refrigerant leak or a dirty coil. In such cases, it’s best to book a diagnostic with the Pros.

What uses the most electricity (and other forms of energy) in a house is heating and cooling systems, water heating units and other appliances like refrigerators. To reduce the amount of electricity, or energy, being used, ensure that you have energy-efficient appliances installed in your home. The cost of upgrading to a more energy-efficient hot water heater, furnace, AC unit, etc. can be offset with the help of Edmonton’s Home Energy Retrofit Accelerator program. As well, some professional heating and cooling companies in Edmonton, like ProSolutions PHAC, offer extended discounts for installing new, energy-efficient furnaces, water heaters, and more.
As well, regular maintenance can help to keep these home comfort systems running smoothly and efficiently.
You do not need a ductless unit in every room of your home. However, a single wall-mounted ductless unit can only cool one room or unobstructed zone (with good airflow). Thus, most Edmonton homeowners opt to install a wall-mounted mini split AC unit in each main living space they want to keep cool.
Keep in mind that one outdoor ductless condenser unit can support multiple (up to four) indoor units. Thus, one outdoor unit and four indoor units would cool four rooms.
Not sure how many ductless mini split air conditioner units you need or where they should be located? The ductless air conditioner installation experts at ProSolutions Inc. can help. Our professional HVAC technicians will help you decide how many indoor units you need, where to install them, and what size and model of mini split AC will work best for your Edmonton home.
How long it takes to install an air conditioner will depend on several factors. This includes the type of AC unit, if you’re replacing or installing new, the size of your home, the location where the new unit will be installed, the condition of the ductwork in your home, etc. However, on average, a professional AC installation company should be able to accomplish this within a day.

Yes, a 16 SEER AC is worth it. Although it will be more expensive to buy than a less efficient air conditioning unit, a 16 SEER AC will help you save on energy costs.
16 SEER air conditioners are energy efficient, meaning they will use less energy than units with a lower SEER rating. As a result, you’ll notice significant savings in energy costs over the years. In fact, the more energy-efficient your AC the better.
HVAC professionals suggest that homeowners purchase the highest SEER unit they can afford. In addition to saving more on utility bills, buying a highly efficient air conditioner can also help you secure energy efficiency government rebates, depending on where you live.

Replacing an old air conditioner involves more than just swapping out the unit. Several parts of your home’s cooling system may need to be inspected, repaired, or upgraded to ensure your new AC runs efficiently and reliably. This can include:

Insulation & Windows: Poor insulation or drafty windows can affect performance.
Refrigerant Lines: Existing piping may need to be replaced or flushed, depending on the type of refrigerant.
Condensate Drainage: Proper drainage is crucial to avoid water damage.
Electrical Wiring: The wiring and breaker may need updating to meet current safety codes.
Grilles & Registers: These may need to be cleaned, repaired, or resized.
Filters & Coils: The furnace filter and evaporator coil should be inspected for cleanliness and wear.
Every home is different. That’s why a professional assessment from ProSolutions is the best way to determine exactly what’s needed for a proper air conditioning replacement in Edmonton’s climate.
