New central AC, swamp cooler conversions and high-efficiency upgrades for Lakewood homes, with a written proposal first.
A new AC in Lakewood has to handle bright high-altitude sun and hot, dry afternoons. Large numbers of 1950s through 1970s ranches and split-levels, plus newer townhomes and condos around Belmar. Lakewood is Jefferson County's largest city, stretching from post-war neighborhoods near Denver up to homes on the slopes of Green Mountain. Every project starts with a free estimate that looks at your ducts, returns and the rooms that never cool, then we recommend equipment that fits.
Homes near the foothills get strong afternoon sun on the west side, and right-sizing plus duct sealing usually matters more than raw capacity.
The right AC starts with the right numbers. We measure the home, check return air, and choose between single-stage, two-stage and variable-speed equipment based on comfort and noise goals. Installation includes matched components, proper evacuation, measured refrigerant charge, permits where required and a walk-through.
Hail is the Front Range wildcard. At about 5,500 feet, Lakewood also gets intense afternoon sun on west-facing rooms. We plan condenser placement, clearances and optional hail guards so the new system lasts.

| Central AC on an existing furnace and ductwork, 2 to 3 ton | $6,000 to $9,000 |
