Newly installed outdoor AC condenser on an elevated stand, XQS job in Tampa

What the service can include

Home and system evaluation

Discuss the layout, intended use and comfort requirements so the installation can be planned.

Equipment and ductwork

The proposal identifies the system and associated duct installation needed for the agreed scope.

Coordination

Access, project readiness and applicable permitting are considered when planning the work.

About the estimate

Diagnostic visit: $79. If you go ahead with the work, the $79 is credited toward it.

Warranties follow manufacturer recommendations and XQS terms for each service. Call for details about coverage or financing.

Installation is estimated for the specific property. Equipment, ductwork, access and project requirements affect the final scope.

Check it yourself first

Before a new system: what a good estimate looks like.

What to look at before you decide. These points come from public agencies, universities and manufacturers; the visit confirms what your home needs.

  1. A real evaluation: A good contractor inspects your home and your ductwork before quoting, instead of simply quoting a bigger unit.[16]
  2. Bigger is not better: An oversized system controls humidity poorly, a real concern in Tampa Bay.[17]
  3. Split systems: Confirm that the quote replaces both the indoor and the outdoor unit.[17]

Your questions, answered

Before you schedule.

A clear scope makes the next step easier. Let us know if you have questions about the visit.

Do you install ductwork?

Yes. XQS offers duct installation alongside air conditioning equipment.

Do you work on new construction?

Yes, within HVAC, plumbing and septic. XQS is not offering general contracting or whole-home construction.

Can you select a system from the square footage alone?

A useful recommendation requires an evaluation of the home and its needs, not just a single number.
