We work with all major brands including LG, Friedrich, Frigidaire, GE, and more \u2014 if it fits in a window, we can install it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\" style=\"margin-bottom:24px;\">\n<p><strong>Do you handle both window and through-wall AC installations?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes \u2014 we do standard window installations as well as through-wall installs, which require cutting through an exterior wall and installing a sleeve. Through-wall jobs are common in older NYC buildings and we handle them routinely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\" style=\"margin-bottom:24px;\">\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s included in the installation service?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We handle the full install: mounting the unit, sealing the gaps with foam insulation, securing the unit with brackets or supports for safety (required by NYC law for units above the first floor), and testing to make sure everything runs properly before we leave.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\" style=\"margin-bottom:24px;\">\n<p><strong>Do you remove and dispose of old AC units?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes \u2014 we can remove your old AC unit as part of the same appointment.
