Need AC? Here Are 3 Types of Air Conditioning for Your Rockland, NY Home

Clarkstown HVAC review scores as of 10/20/23

When you’re considering installing new air conditioning in your Rockland, NY home, you want to know all about the different options available to you. Whether you want to replace your old, inefficient central air conditioning system, find a cooling option for a new addition or an area in your home without ducts, or find an environmentally friendly way to both heat and cool your home, Clarkstown Heating & Air Conditioning can help. We offer a variety of home cooling solutions that can help you stay comfortable all summer long.

The Department of Energy offers information that can help homeowners in Rockland, NY uncover the best cooling products for different home scenarios. They discuss the different types of AC and what circumstances for which each is best suited:

Central Air Conditioning: A central air conditioner will circulate cool air through your Rockland, NY home using a system of ducts and registers. Central air conditioning tends to provide the most even cooling throughout the entire home. If you have available ductwork, it can be a cost-effective choice for your home cooling needs. Central air conditioning is generally quiet and easy to operate, and is far more efficient than a window unit would be to cool your home. Today’s central air conditioning systems are much more energy conscious than their older counterparts, and modern AC uses a non-ozone depleting refrigerant that is better for the environment and allows your air conditioner to operate in a more efficient manner.

Ductless Air Conditioning: If you have a space in your home that could benefit from cooling, but where ductwork is impossible or impractical, you may want to consider ductless, or mini-split, air conditioning for your Rockland, NY home. Ductless systems are mounted on a wall or on (or in) the ceiling, and provide homes without ductwork zoned cooling. Some systems function as both cooling and heating systems as well. They are very efficient and effective for all climates. They are simple to install, as your cooling technician will only have to make a small hole, rather than install ductwork throughout your home. Your system will be up and running quickly with minimal construction mess.

Heat Pumps: Not only can a heat pump complement your furnace or boiler to help you stay warmer during the winter months, it can also provide you with the home cooling you need in your Rockland, NY home during the summer months as well. According to the Department of Energy, “heat pumps use electricity to move heat from a cool space to a warm space, making the cool space cooler and the warm space warmer.” This means that that during the warmer months, heat pumps move heat from your cool house into the warmer outdoors. And, heat pumps are efficient – the DOE says they can provide equivalent space conditioning at as little as one-fourth of the operating costs of conventional cooling appliances.

Warranty Covered Our Repair

My Carrier furnace stopped working in October and needed a part. Rob, the technician from Clarkstown, investigated my problem, looked into the unit’s warranty, and the repaired was covered.

No Signs of a Major Installation

Clarkstown Heating & A/C replaced our old AC system. The salesman was knowledgeable and answered as many questions as I could think of.

The house showed no signs of a major installation and the system was working, quietly cooling the house.

Taking Pride in Their Company

Had new A/C unit put in and very satisfied with the results. Had an opportunity to speak with Mr. Pastore, who is president of Clarkstown.

Took the Time to Explain Everything

I had my furnace and A/C units replaced. The installer, Clayton, arrived on time with his assistant. He took the time to explain everything to me, then they proceeded to disconnect the old units and connect the new ones. They laid out drop cloths so that they could keep everything clean, and when they were done they cleaned up and took everything with them. Overall, they did an excellent job.

Smooth Transition in a Boiler Emergency

You have made this large investment [Carrier Boiler] a smooth transition and kept your word every step of the way. Your sales representative really know the product and made me feel assured that I am in capable hands. The installers took the time to explain the installation process, including workings of the boiler, troubleshooting and maintenance. Thank you again!

Owners Dedicated to Making Customers Happy

Several years ago they installed a new boiler and hot water heater. And since the installation there have been several issues that they've had to come back for but every time they came they were prompt and addressed all of my complaints beyond my satisfaction. It was always very important to the owners to make me, the customer, very happy. I would highly recommend their service. I've also used them to replace my central air conditioner unit and was very satisfied with the product and service.

Phil M. | New City, NY

Wonderful Job Installing My New Furnace

Alex and Jarell are to be commended for a wonderful job installing my new furnace. Their caring and skills are outstanding. They are truly a credit to your organization. From beginning to end, they were neat and clean.

Patricia Fitzsimmons

Minimized Appearance of New Installation

The installation of the gas pipe was accomplished in a creative manner by running the pipe inside the ceiling rather than below. This minimized the appearance of an unsightly pipe. The electrician demonstrated the knowledge and ability concerning the electrical components and placements of the Transfer Box.

The Francesconi’s

Best Equipment & Workmanship, for the Least Cost

The clean up was so good. We couldn’t even tell the crews were here and the work was done! We interviewed 3 other companies and ended up getting the best equipment, best workmanship, for the least cost. I was waiting for something to go wrong, but it never did.

Mike Amodeo

Polite and Patient Crew

Clarkstown Heating and Air sent three workers to replace my boiler. The workers arrived on time, were neat, cleaned up after themselves, and very polite. The worker who installed the thermostats was patient explaining how to set the thermostats. They finished ahead of time assuring that we would have heat overnight. I would definitely recommend them to anyone seeking a New Boiler, New Water Heater, or Air Conditioning System.

Eddie R. | Garnerville, NY

Great Care Taken in Protecting my Wood Floors

I am so pleased with the work your company completed for me. The replacement central A/C system was replaced in one day. You have knowledgeable and polite workers who work well together. Great care was also taken in protecting my wood floors and the work area was swept and spotless before they left.
