  • "Professional Service"
    I had Hunter Murray and his 2 helpers come out to my home today to fix a main water line. From the second they arrive they were professional and did a wonderful job. They fix the problem and cleaned up the mess and left my property looking like it was cleaned by the landscapers. I would highly recommend Bailey to anyone who needs a plumber. Also the office staff was great and professional. You can see the everyone enjoys where they work.

  • "Amazing service!"
    Tech Andrew Stinemire was dispatched to my property for a sewer line back up. The issue was accessed from the outside. Andrew called before he started to explain everything thoroughly. After job was finished he followed up with another phone call. Andrews comportment was nothing short of stellar. I have used many plumbers and unfortunately they rush you off the phone. A lot of plumbers act as if they are doing you a favor. Not Andrew! He talked to me like an old friend and made sure I understood everything. We need more plumbers like him. He understands very well that ultimately this is a service business and the customer needs to be treated with deference and respect

  • "Oliver your Technician was Super Professional"
    Hi Everyone... I just want to thank Bailey's for sending out Oliver to fix my Shower. Oliver was knowledgeable, considerate and professional. The cost of the repairs was expensive, but unfortunately the piece that needed replacing was Old and impossible to remove from the outside unit. I know Oliver tried to keep costs down. We want to thank him for all his hard work. We think it was worth every penny. We now have a Nice hot shower. We certainly can't live without that. Thanks Bailey Plumbing... Have a Good Day.!!😁

  • "Difficult Job done well!"
    I had an outside leak from the water pipe entering our basement. The crew they sent had to dig to deep to find the elusive location. They were able to locate it and fix it witout damaging the adjacent brick walkway or the sourrounding areas. Amazing work!
    - Gary M.
  • "Every tech you guys have sent has been great, skilled and pleasant."
    Every tech you guys have sent has been great, skilled and pleasant. But I had to take the time to write a review for Andrew Stinemire. He was exceptional. He was extremely pleasant and very helpful He went above and beyond. Thank you so much. I highly recommend Andrew!
    - Alicia Garrick
  • "Excellent, quick service"
    Today we needed help with what we thought was a blocked sewer. We were referred to Bailey through American Water. Andrew was our technician. He arrived quickly and was very knowledgeable about our problem. He identified the issue, did the work and resolved the problem. We are very pleased with every aspect of our service call today and highly recommend this company.
    - Deborah O.
  • "Quick Response and Professional Technician"
    The technician, Andrew, was friendly and kept me informed of what he was doing with the repair. It ended up being a little more work than initially anticipated because the pipes were old. He was very professional. I would definitely use Bailey again! Price was definitely reasonable. I thank Bailey for their quick response and the professionalism of their technician!

Tips for Preparing Your Home for a New AC System

To get the most out of your new air conditioning system, take time to prepare your home before installation. Here are some expert recommendations:

  • Seal Air Leaks: Check windows, doors, and ductwork for leaks to prevent cooled air from escaping.
  • Clear the Installation Area: Make space around the indoor and outdoor units for a smoother installation.
  • Upgrade Insulation: Better insulation helps retain cool air and reduce energy use.
  • Consider a Smart Thermostat: Pairing your new system with smart controls improves efficiency and comfort.
  • Schedule During Mild Weather: Avoid emergency installations by planning in spring or early summer.

These steps help maximize the benefits of your new system while extending its lifespan.

How to Choose the Right AC System for Your Home

Choosing the right air conditioning system is one of the most important steps in ensuring long-term efficiency, comfort, and cost-effectiveness. Not all homes require the same type or size of system, so it’s essential to work with a knowledgeable HVAC team that understands the specific needs of Lakewood homeowners.

Here are some factors to consider when selecting your system:

  • Home Size and Layout: Larger homes typically need systems with higher cooling capacity, while smaller homes may benefit from more compact or ductless systems.
  • Energy Efficiency Ratings: Look for systems with high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings. These systems consume less energy while delivering powerful cooling performance.
  • Smart Thermostat Compatibility: Modern systems often come with smart technology that lets you control your AC from your smartphone—perfect for busy households.
  • Noise Level: Consider systems designed to operate quietly for a more peaceful home environment.
  • Local Climate Demands: Lakewood's humidity levels may require systems with advanced dehumidification capabilities to keep indoor air comfortable and healthy.

Working with Bailey Plumbing Heating Cooling ensures you’ll receive expert guidance in selecting a system that aligns with your needs and budget while accommodating Lakewood's unique weather patterns.

The AC Installation Process: What to Expect

Understanding the installation process helps you prepare for what’s ahead and ensures a smooth experience from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect when working with our team:

1. In-Home Assessment
We start by evaluating your home’s square footage, insulation, ductwork, and energy needs. This ensures we recommend the right-sized system for maximum efficiency.

2. System Recommendation & Estimate

Commonly Asked Questions

What size air conditioner do I need for my home?

System size depends on your home's square footage, insulation, window placement, and more. We perform a full load calculation to determine the correct size for optimal efficiency and comfort.

Can I install a new AC system in an older home?

Yes, but older homes may need electrical upgrades or duct modifications. Our team specializes in retrofitting systems to work safely and effectively in historic or outdated Lakewood homes.

How do I choose between central AC and ductless systems?

Central AC works well for larger homes with existing ductwork, while ductless mini-splits are great for additions, small homes, or zone-specific cooling. We’ll help you compare both options during your consultation.

How often should I schedule maintenance for my new AC?

We recommend at least one professional tune-up per year, ideally in the spring. Regular maintenance helps prevent costly breakdowns and ensures warranty coverage remains valid.

Will I need to leave my home during installation?

In most cases, no. You can stay in your home while we install your new system. Our team works efficiently and respectfully, keeping disruption to a minimum throughout the process.
