Why we suggest Central + mini-split: Your ducts already reach the house, but the garage is usually not connected to them. A mini-split cools the garage on its own.

How we calculate this

Uses a standard residential change-out as the baseline.

Tons and BTUs describe cooling capacity, not equipment weight. One ton equals 12,000 BTU per hour. Final sizing requires a professional load calculation.

This is a planning range, not a quote. Your exact price comes from the free in-home estimate. If your current system has to be assessed first, that is done as a tune-up evaluation.

Monthly illustration uses 60 equal payments before APR; approval and actual terms vary.

New AC estimator questions

New AC cost questions for Southwest Florida

Straight answers for planning a replacement before the in-home sizing and installation review.

Still unsure? Call us
How much does a new AC cost in Southwest Florida?

For planning, many standard residential change-outs in this estimator begin around $6,000 for 1.5- to 3-ton systems and around $8,000 for 4- to 5-ton systems. The displayed range changes with cooled square footage and property type. Final pricing depends on verified capacity, equipment efficiency, ductwork, electrical needs, access and site conditions.

How does the new AC cost estimator work?

Choose the cooled square footage and property type to see a planning range, suggested system tonnage, BTU capacity and an approximate monthly financing illustration. The result helps with budgeting before an in-home load and installation review.

What is normally included in the installed planning range?

The estimator assumes a standard residential system change-out with old-equipment removal, the local permit and final inspection, and a hurricane-rated equipment pad. Duct, electrical, structural, drainage or unusual access work can change the final proposal.

Why should I use the Cape Coral or Fort Myers estimator?

The city pages use the same pricing tool but add local installation guidance, service links and FAQs for Cape Coral or Fort Myers. They are useful when you want location-specific planning information after reviewing the regional estimate.

Can square footage determine the exact AC size?

No. Square footage is a useful starting point, but windows, insulation, ceiling height, sun exposure, occupancy, air leakage and duct condition affect the cooling load. Final equipment selection should follow a professional load calculation.
