Air Conditioning Installation and Replacement

If your air conditioner has reached the point where repairs no longer do the job or your home’s energy efficiency is at an all-time low, you may need a new system. When your home is ready for a new or replacement air conditioner, our Tri Peaks Air professionals will install your cooling system without delay.

How do you know if you need a replacement air conditioner?

Here are some of the most common issues. Your unit is:

Approaching the end of its life span, usually between 15 and 20 years

Efficiency decreases as your system gets closer to the end of its life. You want to act proactively to plan what your replacement purchase will be instead of reacting when your system unexpectedly quits. This can save you money.

Experiencing more and more repairs

Similar to when your car requires more and more repairs, there comes a time for evaluation. Are you spending more in repairs than it would cost to invest in a new system? If the answer is yes, call and talk to one of our knowledgeable team members to discuss your options.

Showing signs of running inefficiently

How can you tell if your air conditioner is running inefficiently? A good indication is if your energy bills are increasing and your utility company’s rates remain steady.

This typically demonstrates it’s taking longer for your heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system to cool down your Colorado home to your preferred comfort level. Your system is running longer and using more energy than it should in this case—an increase in energy costs.

If you notice any of these signs with your air conditioner, or if you suspect another reason for needing a replacement, talk to one of our Tri Peaks Air team members. We will design a system best matched for your comfort needs and budget. Our experts are always here to help you.

We also offer several financing options to help if this is a concern. Contact us to discuss how our team can guide you through our process.

Air Conditioning Repairs

Not having your air conditioner working on the hottest of days in Colorado can be exasperating. Whenever you need a repair, let our heating and cooling experts quickly remedy it for you.

There are many ways your air conditioner can stop working in its normal capacity. A few symptoms you could experience are:

  • Hearing an unusual noise
  • Feeling warm air coming from your vents
  • Smelling an unusual odor like burning
  • Noticing your air conditioner is frozen
  • Leaking water

These symptoms mean you have an issue with your air conditioner. Ignoring problems usually only makes them bigger and more costly. Our recommendation is to have one of our Tri Peaks Air team members promptly diagnose and repair the issue for you.

Sometimes a repair turns into an emergency. Give us a call when it’s urgent. We are here 24/7 for you.

When you do need our professionals to make a repair, you can count on it staying repaired. We make our repairs right the first time—and only use the highest quality parts and materials when working on your system. Our experts are always here for you.

Air Conditioning Maintenance

Keeping your air conditioner in its best operating condition is your goal. You want your system inspected, cleaned, and tuned up on a regular basis to help avoid unexpected and costly repairs and breakdowns.

Routine maintenance by our trained and experienced Tri Peaks Air team helps your air conditioner cool your home efficiently and reliably. With annual professional care, you may experience maintenance benefits such as improved energy efficiency, extended system life span, and decreased emergencies.

We recommend having our experts prep your air conditioner before you use it for the first time in the spring to give you consistent cooling all season.

To help you manage your maintenance, talk to us about our maintenance program, Peak Maintenance Membership. Your air conditioner tune-up and inspection are part of the plan, so call and speak with one of our educated and friendly team members about our program today.

“Ryan Henry was so great with our A/C tune up. Our system is quite old and he was really great to work with and made sure it continues to function. He gave great recommendations for the future to ensure that our system runs smoothly now and into the future!”

“I have been doing business with a large Company for 5 years to service our AC and Furnace units. When they came out to service our AC Units this year, they presented us with a large bill for extensive repairs. It did not seem proper to me so I called Tri Peaks Air for a second opinion. Justin was at my House the next day and did a complete exam of our AC Units, without reviewing the prior Company's estimate. Some of the items did need to be replaced, some did not. Tri Peaks estimated a much more sensible price and we set a date for the repairs the following week. I also purchased their Maintenance Contract. Their expertise, and dedication to their Trade is what I look for in a Company. This Company provides responsive service, at a fair price. Thank you to Mike, Justin, and Ryan for your help in turning my frustration into satisfaction. I look forward to doing business with you for many years to come. Also, 5 stars are not enough, I give them 10.”

“Todd was efficient and friendly. He provided services to get our unit back up and running and offered the service plan, which saved us money overall. There were no gimmicks or run around. Just friendly reliable service!!!”

- SJ J.

“Great experience! First of all Enoch and Todd arrived as scheduled. Once here they went right to work checking out our 10 yr old system. Did their performance checks and provided recommended service and cost. Didn’t give me any jazz that the sky was falling with the unit like I experienced once with Applewood Heat and Plumbing at a newer home. They didn’t rush the job but took the time to do it right. Very friendly and polite. Tri Peaks Air is definitely number one on my list for any future service calls.”

- Bret P.

Will and Todd were great! Super friendly and professional and had us back up and running in 24 hours. Couldn’t recommend these two enough! Thanks guys!

- Kurtis G.

“Our HVAC system went out at our house in Thornton, Tri Peaks Air came out right away and gave us a free Estimate to replace Furnace/AC. Very reasonable price, knowledgeable they answered all my questions. The install crew came the next day and did an amazing job! I will be referring all my family and friends to Tri Peaks Air.”

- Kim G.

I remodel basements and, when I need a helping hand during the busy season, I always call on Justin! They’ve helped me with upgrading and rerouting ducting, furnaces, AC Units, water heaters, and, most recently, a mini split install for a sound proof media room! They are very friendly and knowledgeable with me and the customers!
