Air Conditioning Installation in Everett, WA

over 4638 reviews

    When summer heat rolls into Everett, you want your home to feel like a cool escape, not a sauna.

We’ve been helping folks throughout the Greater Seattle area stay comfortable for decades, and we take real pride in getting it done right the first time.

    Our Air Conditioning Installation & Replacement Services in Everett, WA

    We provide a wide range of air conditioning installation and replacement services to suit the needs of Everett homeowners and businesses. Whether you’re building from scratch or upgrading your current system, our comfort specialists in Everett, WA are ready to help you make the right call for your space, your goals, and your budget.

    Central AC Installation

    Central AC systems are still a favorite among Everett homeowners who want whole-home comfort through existing ductwork. These systems are strong, reliable, and provide even cooling throughout your space. If your home already has a furnace or ducted heating, a new AC unit can often be installed using that same ductwork—making it a cost-effective and powerful solution.

    Heat Pump Installation

    A heat pump is an energy-efficient way to both heat and cool your home. It works by transferring heat rather than generating it, which helps you save on energy bills throughout the year. In Everett’s relatively mild climate, heat pumps are an excellent option for homeowners who want a single system that does it all. We handle both full heat pump installation and AC replacement with heat pump upgrades.

    Ductless Mini-Split Installation

    Don’t have ducts? No problem. Ductless mini-splits are a fantastic alternative to central AC. They’re ideal for homes without ductwork, remodeled spaces, garages, or additions. Each indoor unit offers zoned temperature control, which means more efficiency, better comfort, and lower energy use. Plus, they’re whisper quiet and super easy to maintain.

    From traditional setups to high-efficiency systems, we offer AC installation services tailored to your needs. Our team walks you through the process from start to finish—no pressure, no guesswork, just honest advice and expert work.

      Do You Install Heat Pumps and Ductless AC Systems as Well?

      Absolutely. Heat pump installation and ductless mini-split installation are some of our most requested services in Everett, and for good reason. These systems offer incredible energy-efficiency and work great in our local climate. Heat pumps give you both heating and cooling in one package, while ductless mini-splits offer zoned comfort without needing ductwork. Whether you’re looking to add a system to a single room, a new home office, or your whole house, we’ll help you figure out the best fit. We’ll also explain how SEER ratings and energy-efficiency factors affect your long-term savings. If your current AC unit is outdated, noisy, or underperforming, these newer systems can be a game changer—both in comfort and in monthly utility costs.

      Do You Install or Repair Air Ducts if Needed?

      Yes, we do. Your ductwork plays a huge role in the performance of your HVAC system, and if it’s in rough shape, even the best AC unit won’t perform well. During an air conditioning installation, we inspect your existing ducts to check for leaks, poor insulation, or layout issues. If AC repairs are needed, we take care of it. If you’re installing a new system from scratch or replacing an old one, we can also design and install new ductwork that delivers airflow evenly and efficiently throughout your home. Our goal is to make sure your entire HVAC system—from the unit to the ducts—is working together to keep your space comfortable and your energy bills manageable.

      How Do I Know Which AC System Is Best for My Home?

      Choosing the right AC system depends on several things—your home size, layout, ductwork (or lack of it), insulation, and of course, your comfort preferences. That’s why we always start with a personalized consultation. If your home already has ductwork in good condition, a central AC or heat pump might be the most straightforward and cost-effective option. For homes without ducts or for folks looking for zoned control, ductless mini-splits offer excellent flexibility and efficiency. We’ll also look at your budget, long-term energy savings, and any available rebates or tax incentives for energy-efficient upgrades. SEER ratings are another big factor—higher SEER ratings mean better efficiency, which can help lower your energy bills. Don’t worry, we’ll help you understand your options clearly so you can make a confident, informed decision.

      Can I Finance My New Air Conditioning System?

      Yes, we offer flexible financing options to make AC installation more affordable. Whether you’re facing an unexpected AC replacement or planning a big upgrade, spreading out payments over time can help ease the financial impact. We work with trusted financing partners that offer low-interest plans, and we’re happy to walk you through all the details. Our team can also help you take advantage of any rebates, tax credits, or energy-efficiency incentives available in the Everett area. We believe every homeowner should have access to reliable cooling—without breaking the bank.

      Will a New AC System Lower My Energy Bills?

      Yes, especially if your current AC unit is more than 10–15 years old. Older systems are typically much less efficient than today’s models. Modern air conditioners come with improved SEER ratings, better compressors, and variable-speed fans that adjust to your needs. This reduces waste and lowers your energy usage. Ductless systems and heat pumps are especially good at helping you save, thanks to their targeted cooling and high energy-efficiency. Many of our customers in Everett see their monthly energy bills drop significantly after a new AC installation—sometimes by as much as 20–40%.

      How Often Should I Schedule AC Maintenance?

      You should plan on scheduling professional AC maintenance at least once a year—ideally in the spring, before the hot weather hits. Regular maintenance helps catch small issues early, keeps your system running smoothly, and extends the life of your investment. Our HVAC technicians clean coils, check refrigerant levels, inspect electrical components, and make sure your AC unit is ready for peak performance. We also offer annual maintenance plans for added convenience and peace of mind. Plus, staying on top of air conditioning maintenance helps keep your warranty valid.

      We got notice from our water utility that their system flagged a slow leak in our system. Anna called them, very helpful. We troubleshot as best we could and came up empty. We called Gene Johnson and explained what we knew and didn’t know, scheduling a technician Friday morning. Branson Carr showed up as scheduled, we went over the situation and he started a well organized trouble diagnosis. In the end, he believed that we don’t actually have a leak, but something else. We discussed it together and in the course of breaking the system to smaller units found he couldn’t totally isolate something the utility would believe was a slow leak. Eventually he he believed it was the two valves that were likely the culprit. We had been experiencing episodic low water flow in some of our fixtures, but they came back in time. We explored that with our different background and concluded the apparent slow leak observed by the utility was likely the result of a faulty main supply valve, causing pressure drop in the system, taking some time to recharge to the rated pressure supplied by the utility, mimicking a prolonged slow leak. He recommended replacing the old gate valve with a new ball valve. I asked if we could install a leak detection/shut down capability that is readily available. He did so quickly and we noticed immediate return to the home’s original functionality.
      I was very impressed with the advanced features of the monitoring and shut down, even moreso when we learned of it’s remote notices, remote control and monitoring abilities.
      Branson is an excellent plumber and diagostician. He worked quickly, spending time with us until he was comfortable with the intricacies of this system.
      I definitely will not hesitate to recommend him to others.

      Tyler was prompt and professional. There was no upselling just straightforward information. He assessed it, informed us of the water heater failure, and they proceeded to get everything installed in the same day. Great work and easy to recommend.

      Noah Amini did an outstanding job. He evaluated our needs and came back 2 days later to put a backflow valve in our sewer line to prevent rats from entering our toilet. Gene Johnson will be called next time I need plumbing work done.

      We have used Gene Johnson Plumbing for many years. We most recently had need for a clogged drain to be unplugged in an upstairs bathroom of a rental property. The appointment was prompt and Jaren was right on time. He communicated very clearly what the job would entail and the related costs. He was professional and got the drain cleared quickly with minimal disruption to our tenants. He discussed what he found in follow-up to clearing the drain and future options that would be of benefit and help to prevent further clogs. The price for his service was reasonable and we highly recommend Gene Johnson Plumbing and will continue to use them for our future plumbing needs.

      I had what I thought was a minor water leak GJP was responded quickly and communication was thorough including multiple confirmation texts. A nice text about Brandon who is the tech that was coming, including an ETA. Response was timely and they arrived when promised as it turned out a small leak was a much bigger problem. A through the process. It was explained to me what they were finding and various options to fix the problem. It could not be fixed immediately, but the initial service at a minimum stopped the immediately leak and returned cold water to service. I have received multiple options in how to solve the greater issue. Highly recommend.
