It might be airflow, refrigerant levels, electrical performance, or a system that is simply reaching the end of its service life. Air Plus provides complete air conditioning services across Cincinnati and surrounding communities, helping homeowners get fast answers and reliable solutions without guesswork.

AC Installation and Replacement

If your air conditioner is more than 10 to 15 years old or requires repeated repairs, it may be time for a replacement. Air Plus offers Carrier air conditioners from 13 SEER up to 21 SEER. Our Home Comfort Advisors assess your home before recommending any system. All equipment includes a full factory warranty, and flexible financing is available.

Annual AC maintenance prevents the failures that leave families without cooling during Cincinnati’s hottest weeks. Air Plus Perks members receive two performance tune-ups per year, including coil cleaning, refrigerant checks, and a full system assessment.

Frequently Asked Questions About AC Services in Cincinnati

How do I know if I need AC repair or a full air conditioner replacement?

The most reliable indicators are system age and repair history. If your air conditioner is more than 10 to 15 years old and has required repairs in the past two seasons, the cost of continued repair typically approaches or exceeds the cost of a more efficient replacement. Our technicians perform a full diagnostic assessment before recommending any replacement and will present repair as an option whenever it is the more cost-effective choice for your situation.

How often should I have my air conditioning system serviced?

Air Plus recommends an annual air conditioning tune-up, ideally in the spring before the cooling season begins. Regular maintenance keeps your system running at peak efficiency, extends its operational life, and catches developing problems before they cause a failure during the hottest days of the year. Air Plus Perks members receive two performance tune-ups per year as part of their membership, covering both the heating and cooling seasons.

What does SEER rating mean, and how does it affect my energy bills?

SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio and measures how efficiently an air conditioning system uses electricity over an entire cooling season. A higher SEER rating means greater energy efficiency and lower monthly operating costs. The EPA’s current minimum standard is 13 SEER. Air Plus offers systems ranging from 13 SEER up to 21 SEER. A 21 SEER system uses significantly less electricity than a 13 SEER system to deliver the same amount of cooling, which translates directly to lower utility bills over the life of the equipment.

What is the difference between a central air conditioner and a ductless mini-split system?

A central air conditioner uses your home’s existing ductwork to distribute cooled air throughout the entire house from a single outdoor unit and indoor air handler. A ductless mini-split system, such as the Carrier ductless systems Air Plus installs, uses small individual units mounted in specific rooms and does not require ductwork at all. Ductless systems are ideal for older homes without existing ductwork, room additions, garages, and spaces where extending central ductwork is impractical or cost-prohibitive.

Does Air Plus offer financing for new air conditioning systems?

Yes. Air Plus offers flexible financing options through Wells Fargo Bank, FTL Finance, and Microf. Options include deferred-interest plans for qualified applicants and a rent-to-own program through Microf that requires no credit check. Our Home Comfort Advisors will walk you through all available options during your free quote appointment so you can choose the payment structure that works best for your budget.

What should I do if my air conditioner stops working during a Cincinnati heat wave?

Call Air Plus at (513) 769-0871 immediately. We offer same-day service for most AC repair calls and 24-hour emergency service for urgent situations. While you wait for a technician, close blinds and curtains on sun-facing windows to reduce heat gain, set ceiling fans to run counterclockwise to create a cooling effect, and move to the lowest level of your home where temperatures are naturally cooler. Air Plus Perks members receive guaranteed 24-hour priority response with no trip charges, 365 days a year.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t be happier with the work Jon did for us. He hooked up our existing water lines and installed a new utility sink with the water line connection. He was friendly, professional, and paid great attention to detail. Everything turned out exactly as we hoped. If you need a plumber, we highly recommend Jon and the team at Air Plus Heating & Cooling!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They were able to be here quickly and determined the problem promptly. The service diagnostic is very reasonable. They gave me a couple of options on a 21 year old AC and gave me their honest opinion. I appreciate that they understand my situation and are willing to help me get back up and running as soon as possible. Great company and I highly recommend them.

Update: they installed a whole new system and very professional install by Dave,Tristian, and Tony. Mike was able to get me an affordable system and he did a great job with having it installed quickly as temps will be in the 80’s next week. I couldn’t be happier with my whole experience with Air Plus.
