Choosing the Right System: Central AC, Ductless & Heat Pump Options
The type of air conditioning system must be considered when planning an AC installation in the Inland Empire. Hot, dry conditions can strain a cooling system. Therefore, you need to ensure the product can handle the demand and operating environment. The most popular options for homes in Riverside and the surrounding areas include the following:
- Central Air Conditioning Systems: A central AC system consists of indoor and outdoor units and ductwork to distribute cooled air. Heating is provided by a furnace, which is installed separately from the air conditioner.
- Ductless Mini-Splits: Individual air handlers are set up in specific rooms or areas to cool or heat them separately, allowing for zoned temperature control. The absence of air ducts eliminates energy losses often associated with ductwork and simplifies installation.
- Heat Pumps: These transfer heat rather than generate it, and can switch between heating and cooling modes. A heat pump is a highly efficient alternative to air conditioners and furnaces and provides year-round comfort.
Load Calculations, Sizing, and Energy Efficiency in the IE
Planning is an essential aspect of any AC installation. Generally, the larger your home, the larger the system you will need. During an in-home assessment, our technicians perform a load calculation that accounts for not only your home’s square footage. A Manual J calculation also factors in the local climate, your home’s insulation, and the number of windows and occupants.
Using these variables, we can determine your cooling needs and the required capacity of the air conditioner in British Thermal Units (BTUs). Generally, you need 20 BTUs per square foot, but this can vary, and 12,000 BTUs equals 1 ton. Residential air conditioners generally range from 1.5 to 4 tons of cooling capacity.
An optimal size is critical to having an energy-efficient AC in the Inland Empire. High-efficiency air conditioning systems typically have an Energy Star rating. Their energy consumption is measured using the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER). The higher the number, the less electricity a system uses to deliver the same amount of cool air as a comparable one.
Transparent Pricing, Free Estimates, and Financing Options
We know it’s no secret that air conditioning is an investment. At ServLegacy, we aim to make AC installation as affordable as possible. Transparent pricing ensures there are no surprises (there are never any hidden costs) and that you can budget and plan for an upgrade. Once we evaluate your home and help you determine the best solution, our technicians provide a free estimate that includes the total cost of equipment and installation.
Financing is available upon approved credit. You can qualify for low interest rates and monthly payments over a term that works for you. Even if you can’t afford a high-quality system upfront, the right plan lets you pay for it over time and enjoy the comfort you deserve.
Licensed Trane/Factory-Authorized Technicians & Warranties
Our HVAC technicians are authorized to sell and service high-efficiency, high-quality air conditioning systems. They fully understand the equipment that’s best suited for your home, and have the expertise to size and install it to optimize cooling performance and efficiency.
Being factory-authorized means they’ve received training and certification directly from the manufacturer. This ensures our team sticks to the manufacturer’s strict installation standards.

- Testing: After the initial setup and refrigerant charging, a test run enables us to ensure your new air conditioning system is running smoothly.
When evaluating the AC system they just installed, our technicians turn it on to verify it’s performing per the manufacturer’s specifications. Therefore, we can guarantee it’ll provide the right amount of cooling and run efficiently. Our techs also explain how to properly care for the system, including when to schedule regular AC maintenance.
