Before You Decide

Should you Repair or Replace your AC?

We’ll give you the honest answer — even if repair is the right call. Here’s the industry rule of thumb, explained clearly.
The 50% Rule — What Most NB Companies Don’t Tell You
If Repair Costs More Than Half of Replacement – Replace

Compare your repair quote to the cost of a new system. If the repair is more than 50% of replacement cost, a new system will save you more money over the next 5–10 years. A 9-year-old system with a $400 repair might be worth fixing. A 14-year-old system running on R-22 refrigerant almost certainly isn’t. Moorhead runs this calculation honestly at every free estimate — and tells you when repair is actually the right call.

Is Your System Telling You Something?

6 Signs It's Time for a New AC in New Braunfels

Comal County’s heat pushes systems harder than almost anywhere. Here’s what to watch for — and what each symptom actually means.
System Is 10–15+ Years Old
Modern high-efficiency systems can cut your AEP bill by 30–40% compared to a 12-year-old unit. In NB’s heat, the payback on replacement is often under 5 years.
Strong Replace Signal
Energy Bills Keep Climbing
An aging system works harder every cycle just to reach your thermostat setpoint — burning more electricity every month on your AEP bill.
Efficiency Issue
Repaired It Twice Already
One repair is normal. Two repairs in two years means more are coming — and the next one will likely cost more than the last two combined.

Strong Replace Signal

Can’t Keep Up on a 100°F Day
If your system runs constantly but the house stays at 79–82°F during July peak hours, it’s either undersized or too degraded to perform.
Performance Issue
Runs R-22 Refrigerant
R-22 was phased out in 2020. What’s left is scarce and expensive — a recharge on an R-22 system can cost more than a down payment on a new unit.
Critical Replace Signal
Loud Banging or Grinding
These sounds in an older system almost always mean a major mechanical component is failing. Repair costs at this stage typically exceed the 50% threshold.

Every Installation Includes

What You Get With Every Moorhead Installation

No hidden add-ons. No line items that appear after you approve. Here’s what your flat-rate price covers — all of it.

Free In-Home Load Calculation

We size your system to your actual home — sq footage, ceiling height, insulation, window exposure. Wrong sizing fails early and costs more to run.

Full System Installation

New condenser, air handler, refrigerant lines, thermostat wiring, startup and commissioning — everything in the flat-rate price.

Smart Thermostat Setup

We install and configure a new thermostat — including smart setup and AEP off-peak scheduling if you want it.

Electrical Panel Check (TACLB127071E)

As a licensed electrician, Moorhead checks your panel’s capacity before installation — catching issues a standard HVAC-only company would miss.

All Permits Pulled

We file all required permits with the City of New Braunfels before installation begins. Unpermitted HVAC work voids your homeowner’s insurance.

Old System Removal & Disposal

We remove and properly dispose of your old equipment. Nothing left behind on your property.

Manufacturer Warranty Registration

We register your warranty on your behalf so it’s active from day one — up to 10-year parts and labor on qualifying systems.

Full Load Test Before We Leave

We run your new system under real load, verify cooling performance, confirm refrigerant charge, and sign off before closing the job.

Why SEER rating matters in New Braunfels:

Comal County’s 90%+ summer humidity forces systems to run longer cycles than dry-climate homes. A higher SEER unit (16–18+) handles this more efficiently — Moorhead calculates the real payback timeline for your home, not a generic estimate.

“Three companies quoted us on a new AC. Moorhead was the only one that actually measured the house and explained why we needed a 4-ton. The install was done in one day. System runs perfectly. Never going anywhere else.”
Dave H.
Veramendi, New Braunfels TX
“Our 14-year-old system died in July. Moorhead gave us the repair vs. replace breakdown honestly — the repair was 60% of replacement cost, so we replaced. New Carrier was in by Friday. House is the coldest it’s been in years.”
Sandra B.
Gruene, New Braunfels TX
“We have a 3,100 sq ft Canyon Lake property. Every other company just guessed the tonnage. Moorhead did an actual load calculation. First summer in this house where every room is actually comfortable.”

Common Questions

AC Installation FAQs in New Braunfels, tx

How much does AC installation cost in New Braunfels?
Most residential AC installations in NB range from $3,800–$11,500+ installed depending on tonnage, SEER rating, and ductwork condition. Moorhead provides a flat-rate written quote after a free in-home load calculation — no estimates over the phone because sizing requires seeing your actual home.
How do I know if I should repair or replace?
The 50% Rule: if the repair cost exceeds 50% of replacement value, replace. Add system age — if it’s over 10 years old, runs R-22, or has needed 2+ repairs in two years, replacement is almost always the smarter financial move. We give you this honest calculation at your free estimate.
How long does AC replacement take?
Most New Braunfels AC replacements are completed in a single day — typically 4–8 hours. We schedule same-week installations in most cases. We remove the old system, install the new one, test under load, and confirm cooling before we leave.
Which AC brands does Moorhead install?
Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, American Standard, and Daikin. We recommend the right brand and SEER rating for your home’s load requirements and your budget during the free estimate — not the brand with the highest margin for us.
Do I need surge protection if I have a Generac generator?
Yes — especially if you have a Generac. Generators produce voltage spikes during every startup and load transfer. They’re also at risk during grid power restoration — the moment most surge damage occurs. A Type 2 SPD coordinates with your Generac transfer switch to protect the generator’s own control board and all connected equipment. Moorhead installs both Generac generators and surge protection and designs them to work together.
What kA rating do I need for my Seguin home?
For a standard Seguin home with typical electronics and appliances, a 50kA Type 2 SPD is a minimum. For homes with a Generac generator, EV charger, home office, home theater, or medical devices, we recommend 80–100kA. Homes in areas of Guadalupe County with frequent direct lightning exposure should consider 100kA+ devices. Moorhead assesses your specific risk profile during the free on-site visit and recommends accordingly.
Does Moorhead pull permits for NB installations?
Yes — every time, no exceptions. We file all required permits with the City of New Braunfels before installation begins. Unpermitted HVAC work voids your homeowner’s insurance and creates seller liability at resale. We don’t skip this.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We offer flexible financing including $0 down and $99/month starting payments with approved credit, plus 0% interest promotional periods on qualifying systems. Ask about current terms at your free in-home estimate.
