A new AC installation in Belvedere Park typically costs between $3,500 and $7,500, and in this part of DeKalb County the real question isn’t just the equipment you pick. It’s whether the house behind it is ready. Most Belvedere Park homes were built between the 1950s and 1970s, and many still run on the original floor furnaces, crawl-space ductwork, and electrical panels that came with the house. That means a straightforward swap often isn’t straightforward at all. Our crews know these houses well because we work on them all the time. Call (229) 490-2049 and a live person will answer, day or night.
Key takeaways:
- AC installation in Belvedere Park runs $3,500 – $7,500 for a typical single-family home.
- Many local homes need ductwork sealing or replacement and an electrical panel check before a new system can perform properly.
- We give a written price before any work starts, and every job includes the Cedarwell Care Promise.
Why Meadowsweet Heating and Air Sandy Springs Is Belvedere Park’s Preferred AC Installation Company
Belvedere Park homeowners call us because we take the time to look at the whole house before we set a condenser outside it. That matters here more than in newer suburbs. An aging ranch off Memorial Drive doesn’t cool the same way a 2015 build in Tucker does, and pretending otherwise leads to hot bedrooms and a compressor that fails early. Our team has spent enough time in Belvedere Park crawl spaces to know what’s waiting down there: abandoned floor-furnace chases, disconnected mid-century branch runs, and asbestos wrap that hasn’t been touched since the Kennedy administration.
We’re part of the Cedarwell family of HVAC companies, founded in 2004, and led in this market by Luis Serrano. Every technician is background-checked and uniformed, and every visit includes shoe covers, drop cloths, and a photo of the clean-up before we leave. We don’t ask permission to use them and we don’t charge extra for them. That’s the Cedarwell Care Promise, and it applies in Belvedere Park on every job, no exceptions.
Our AC Installation team coordinates scheduling and dispatch from the brand’s Atlanta office, and crews serve Belvedere Park locally, so we can typically be at a home along Covington Highway or off Glenwood Road within a day of your call, often sooner during the week. We answer the phone live, 24/7. No voicemail queue, no after-hours answering service that doesn’t know the area.
Styles & brands we work with
Furnace Installation in Belvedere Park
Furnace installation in Belvedere Park often happens as part of a larger HVAC correction, because so many of these homes still heat with the original floor furnaces in hallways. Replacing a floor furnace with a proper central furnace means new duct runs, a sealed return path, and usually a panel upgrade to carry the blower. A typical furnace installation here runs $3,500 – $7,500, and because we service nine brands including Carrier, Trane, and Lennox, we can match the furnace to the house rather than pushing whatever is on the truck.
Converting from a floor furnace
When we pull out an old hallway floor furnace, we cap the gas line properly, seal the abandoned floor opening with subfloor and finish material, and route fresh duct to the rooms the floor furnace never reached. That’s the difference between a furnace install that heats evenly and one that still leaves back bedrooms cold.
Ductwork realities in older homes
Many Belvedere Park floor furnaces pushed air without any ductwork at all, which means the house may have none worth reusing. We inspect before we quote so the written price covers what’s actually needed, not a guess.
HVAC Installation in Belvedere Park
HVAC installation in Belvedere Park means matching an entire heating and cooling system to a mid-century house that was never designed for one. The cost for a full HVAC replacement, including a new air conditioner and furnace or a heat pump with air handler, falls in the $3,500 – $7,500 range for most homes here, though the final number depends on duct condition, electrical capacity, and whether we’re keeping any usable infrastructure. We never start that work without a room-by-room load calculation.
Heat pumps for Belvedere Park homes
Heat pump installations are increasingly common here because Belvedere Park winters are mild and summers are brutal. A properly sized heat pump handles both, but only if the ducts can move the air it needs. Ours can.
When the ducts can’t keep up
Original ducts sized for a gas floor furnace rarely handle the 400 CFM per ton a modern AC or heat pump needs. If we find that condition, we’ll tell you in plain language and quote the sealing or replacement work before we install anything.
Trusted Brands We Service in Belvedere Park
We service and install equipment from Carrier, Bryant, Daikin, American Standard, and several others. For Belvedere Park customers, that means we’re not locked into one manufacturer’s sizing chart or one parts shelf. If your home is better served by a Bryant because of its blower profile, or a Daikin because of its humidity control, that’s what we’ll quote. We stock common parts locally so a replacement board or capacitor during an install doesn’t turn into a week-long wait.

AfterCommon AC Installation Problems We See in Belvedere Park Homes
- Undersized original ductwork. Runs sized for a floor furnace can’t move the air a modern AC demands. The result is a frozen evaporator coil and a compressor that dies years early.
- Outdated electrical panels. Many Belvedere Park homes still have 100-amp or smaller service. A new condenser and air handler can overheat that panel, and we inspect it before installation begins.
- Asbestos-wrapped ductwork in crawl spaces. We find this often, and it changes the scope of the job. Sealing off and abandoning those runs safely is part of what we do.
- Single-zone layouts with one hallway return. When all the cooled air gets pulled back through one central return, bedrooms run 8 to 10 degrees warmer than the hallway thermostat reads. A room-by-room load calculation fixes this.

FAQs About AC Installation in Belvedere Park
Because the ductwork and electrical panel were sized for a gas floor furnace from the 1960s, not a modern air conditioner or heat pump. When you swap in new equipment without addressing those, you get a system that can’t move enough air or draw enough power, so it never reaches its rated efficiency and fails early. Call (229) 490-2049 and we’ll inspect before we quote.
Quite often, yes. Many homes here still have 100-amp panels that struggle with a new condenser and air handler starting up together. We check the panel during the estimate, and if an upgrade is needed, we include it in the written price rather than springing it on you later. Call (229) 490-2049 for a free estimate.
The safest approach is to cap the gas line, remove the furnace, and seal the floor opening properly with subfloor and finish material matching the room. Then we run new insulated flex to each room so the house heats and cools evenly. Call (229) 490-2049 and we’ll walk through your specific floor plan.
It’s common enough that we look for it on every job. Homes built between the 1950s and 1970s often have asbestos wrap on original duct seams in crawl spaces. We identify it, seal off abandoned runs safely, and replace what can’t be saved. Call (229) 490-2049 if you suspect your crawl space has it.
Because a single thermostat in one hallway can’t account for the temperature difference between a lower-level family room and upper-level bedrooms. Without a room-by-room load calculation, the system never balances. We do that calculation on every install. Call (229) 490-2049 for a free estimate.
On a split-level off Covington Highway, our crew opened a crawl space to find the original 1962 ductwork wrapped in asbestos and disconnected at the trunk line under the hallway floor furnace. We sealed off the abandoned runs, ran new insulated flex to each room, upgraded the 100-amp panel to handle a 3-ton heat pump, and left the house holding 72 degrees on a 94-degree afternoon without the old single-zone dead spots.
