Why Choose Momentum AC & Electric for Your AC Installation

Momentum AC & Electric takes a customer-first approach. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, our team makes sure every installation is tailored to your home’s unique cooling needs. We also provide clear, upfront pricing and recommendations, ensuring you get the best performance and longevity from your new system.

Which Air Conditioning System Is Best for My Home?

Finding the perfect cooling system for your home is about matching the right technology to your space and lifestyle. We'll help you consider key factors like your home's square footage, layout, existing ductwork, and your goals for energy savings. 

For most homes across Hillsborough and Pinellas Counties, a central AC system delivers consistent, whole-home comfort and is a wonderfully effective and powerful choice.

If your home doesn’t have ductwork or you’d like to cool different rooms to different temperatures, a ductless mini-split system offers incredible flexibility and efficiency. And for a brilliant all-in-one solution, a heat pump is an excellent choice for our climate, providing powerful cooling in the summer and efficient heating on those few chilly days. 

When you reach out to our team, we’ll go over the benefits of each, helping you select the ideal fit for your family.

How Can You Maximize the Lifespan of Your New Air Conditioner?

Proper maintenance after installation is key to keeping your system running at peak performance. Homeowners should schedule regular tune-ups, change filters every 1–3 months, and keep outdoor units free from debris. Momentum AC & Electric also offers maintenance plans to help protect your investment.

Signs You Need a New Air Conditioner

Knowing when to replace your air conditioner can save you from costly repairs and uncomfortable downtime during Tampa’s hottest months. Here are some of the most common signs it may be time for a new AC system:

• Frequent Breakdowns: If your air conditioner requires repairs more than once or twice a season, replacement may be more cost-effective.
• Rising Energy Bills: Older units often lose efficiency, leading to higher monthly utility costs even with regular maintenance.
• Inconsistent Cooling: Rooms in your home feel unevenly cooled or humid, indicating your system can’t keep up with demand.
• Excessive Noise or Strange Smells: Grinding, rattling, or burning odors are clear signs of internal issues that can mean your AC is at the end of its life.
• Age of the Unit: Most air conditioners last about 10–15 years. If yours is approaching or past that range, it’s worth evaluating replacement options.
• Refrigerant Issues: Older systems using outdated refrigerants (like R-22) are more expensive to service and less environmentally friendly.
