Air Conditioning Installation & Replacement in the Outer Banks & Surrounding Areas
Your home will eventually need new cooling equipment. Comfort First can help whether you’re upgrading to a central system or replacing an aging unit with something new.
It’s time to think about something new if your AC is over 10 to 15 years old, driving up your utility bills, or needs frequent repairs.
Our expert team knows air conditioners inside and out. We’ll help you choose a new cooling system based on:
- Home size: A properly sized air conditioner is crucial to avoid overworking your unit.
- Energy efficiency goals: Modern air conditioners offer incredible efficiency for lower monthly costs and a smaller carbon footprint.
- Budget: We’ll consider your budget to help you find the right unit for your home. We also provide financing options on approved credit.
- Ductwork: We can replace your ductwork or repair existing air ducts to make the most of your new air conditioner.
Alternative HVAC Systems We Install
We install heat pumps and ductless mini-splits in addition to central air conditioners.Â
Both systems cool your home by compressing heat from the air into refrigerant and then carrying that heat away to the outdoor unit so cooler air blows through your registers.Â
However, both can be reversed to provide highly efficient heating as well. The main difference is that ductless mini-splits forgo central units and ductwork in favor of individual air handlers that blow air directly into the surrounding area.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do while I wait for emergency AC repair?
While you wait for repairs, it’s best to stay as cool as possible:
- Avoid using the oven and other appliances that produce heat
- Keep windows and doors closed to keep out direct sunlight.
- Drink water to stay hydrated.
- Go to a friend’s house if it gets unbearably hot.
Will an oversized air conditioner keep my home cooler?
No, a larger air conditioner won’t make your home more comfortable—in fact, it’s a common source of long-term issues with comfort, efficiency, and system upkeep.
An oversized system will short-cycle, turning on and off constantly. This results in hot and cold spots throughout your home instead of an even, comfortable temperature distribution.
They’re also less efficient and cause premature wear and tear, leading to more problems.Â
What happens if I don't schedule AC maintenance?
Regular maintenance helps you minimize wear and tear over time.
Skipping tune-ups lets these issues accumulate, which causes your system to age prematurely and work harder to provide the same comfort level.
You may also need more costly repairs if you have major issues down the line.
