A certified technician evaluates your air conditioning system, performs diagnostics, and reviews your home's cooling load — including square footage, insulation, ductwork condition, and window exposure.
You receive a detailed, written estimate covering all parts, labor, and available rebates before any work begins. No surprises, no hidden fees.
We complete the job efficiently, test the system for proper refrigerant charge and airflow, and walk you through the results. Every job is backed by our workmanship warranty.
When your air conditioner is past its prime — typically after 10 to 15 years — or your energy bills are climbing without a clear cause, a new AC installation is the most cost-effective path forward. Our team sizes every system using a Manual J load calculation, ensuring the unit matches your home’s square footage, layout, insulation, and ductwork. Oversized or undersized equipment leads to short cycling, excess humidity, and premature wear.
We install high-efficiency central air conditioners, heat pump systems, and ductless mini-split units from Trane, Mitsubishi Electric, Bosch, and Hisense. Every installation meets or exceeds current SEER2 (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) standards, and we help you choose systems with ENERGY STAR certification for the best return on your investment. As of 2026, all new AC installations use next-generation low-GWP refrigerants (such as R-454B or R-32), replacing the older R-410A — an important update for both efficiency and environmental compliance.
Pierce County falls within IECC Climate Zone 4C — a mixed-marine climate with mild, wet winters and increasingly warm summers. That means your cooling system needs to handle occasional heat spikes in July and August while operating efficiently during the shoulder seasons. While the federal minimum for our region is 13.4 SEER2, we recommend systems rated 15 SEER2 or higher to balance performance and energy savings in Pierce County’s climate.
What’s included in every AC installation:
We provide financing options and help you take advantage of every available rebate — including Puget Sound Energy incentives and the Washington State HEAR program (Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates), which offers point-of-sale discounts for qualifying high-efficiency and heat pump installations.

A broken air conditioner in the middle of a Puget Sound heat wave isn’t something you can wait on. Our licensed technicians diagnose and repair all major AC brands — whether your system uses a scroll compressor, variable-speed blower motor, or standard single-stage unit. Common repairs we handle every week include refrigerant leaks, frozen evaporator coils, faulty capacitors, thermostat malfunctions, and condenser fan motor failures.
Signs your air conditioner needs professional repair:
We stock common replacement parts on our service trucks — capacitors, contactors, fan motors, control boards — so most repairs can be completed in a single visit. For complex issues involving compressor replacement or refrigerant system repairs, we provide a detailed written estimate and discuss whether repair or replacement makes more financial sense based on your unit’s age and condition.
We provide a transparent, written estimate before any repair work begins — no surprises. If your repair cost exceeds 50% of a new system’s price and your unit is over 10 years old, replacement is usually the smarter investment.
Annual air conditioning maintenance is the single most effective way to prevent breakdowns, extend your system’s lifespan, and keep your energy bills in check. In the Pacific Northwest, we recommend scheduling your AC tune-up in early spring — before the first warm stretch hits Pierce County — so your system is ready when you need it.
What our AC tune-up includes:
Well-maintained systems typically last 15 to 20 years — compared to 10 to 12 years for neglected equipment. Regular maintenance also preserves your manufacturer warranty, which often requires proof of annual professional service to remain valid.
Ask about our Maintenance Membership plans — designed to keep your HVAC system running year-round with priority scheduling, discounted repairs, and seasonal tune-ups included.
We repair, install, and maintain every major residential and light commercial air conditioning brand in Pierce County. Our technicians are factory-trained on Trane and Mitsubishi Electric systems and experienced with every brand on the market.
No matter what brand is on your outdoor condensing unit or indoor air handler, we have the parts access and diagnostic tools to get it running properly.
Serenity Air serves homeowners and businesses throughout Pierce County and surrounding communities across the Puget Sound region, including:
At minimum, schedule one professional tune-up per year — ideally in early spring before Pierce County’s warm season begins. If your system runs year-round (as many heat pumps do in the Puget Sound area), twice-annual service is recommended: once before cooling season and once before heating season. Regular maintenance helps prevent breakdowns, improves energy efficiency, and keeps your manufacturer warranty valid.
A general rule: if your AC unit is more than 10 years old and the repair cost exceeds 50% of a new system’s price, replacement is usually the better financial decision. Other signs that point toward replacement include rising energy bills despite regular maintenance, frequent breakdowns across multiple seasons, and use of R-22 refrigerant (production was banned in 2020, making it expensive to source). Systems still running R-410A will also see diminishing parts support as the industry transitions to low-GWP refrigerants like R-454B. Modern systems with higher SEER2 ratings and inverter-driven compressors can reduce your cooling costs significantly compared to equipment from even a decade ago.
Sizing depends on more than square footage. Our technicians perform a Manual J load calculation that factors in your home’s layout, insulation quality, window count and orientation, ceiling height, ductwork condition, and local climate data. A properly sized system avoids common problems like short cycling (too large) or inability to reach set temperature on hot days (too small). We never guess — accurate sizing protects your comfort and your investment.
systems rated 15 SEER2 or higher to balance upfront cost with long-term energy savings. Variable-speed and inverter-driven compressor systems in the 17–20+ SEER2 range offer the best efficiency and humidity control, especially during Washington’s shoulder seasons when temperatures fluctuate.
Yes. Puget Sound Energy offers rebates for qualifying high-efficiency heat pumps, ductless systems, and fuel-switching conversions — amounts vary based on system type and efficiency rating. The Washington State HEAR program (funded through the Climate Commitment Act) provides additional point-of-sale discounts — up to $8,000 for qualifying heat pump installations for income-eligible households. The federal HEEHRA rebate program also remains active in Washington. Note that the Section 25C federal tax credit expired December 31, 2025 and is no longer available for 2026 installations. We help you identify and apply for every current rebate you qualify for so you get the maximum savings.
