AC Installation in Greendale, WI

Choosing the right air conditioning system for your Greendale home is a decision that will affect your comfort and energy bills for the next 15–20 years. Burkhardt Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric has helped Greendale homeowners navigate that choice for over 60 years, and our NATE-certified technicians handle everything from load calculations and equipment selection through installation and startup — with GreenSky financing available to fit virtually any budget.

Greendale's original 1938 New Deal garden apartments and cluster housing in the National Historic Landmark District, plus post-war ranch expansion east of the village center along Loomis Road require careful system sizing. The village's 85+ year-old sewer and drain infrastructure under southway and broad street requires extra care during mechanical work. An undersized unit will run constantly without reaching your set temperature; an oversized unit will short-cycle, leaving your home humid and uncomfortable even when the thermostat reads correctly. Our Manual J load calculations account for your home's insulation, window area, sun exposure, and occupancy before we ever recommend a system.

One of only three original greenbelt planned communities in the united states — a national historic landmark, every home has its own set of installation challenges. The original 1938 garden apartments and cluster homes carry aging mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems that demand experienced technicians familiar with older construction. Burkhardt's installation crews are trained to work within the constraints of older construction — whether that means fabricating custom ductwork transitions, upgrading electrical service, or recommending a ductless mini-split for a room addition that can't be served by the existing duct system.

We install and warranty equipment from Lennox, Carrier, Trane, Rheem, and Mitsubishi Electric, covering the full range from budget-friendly single-stage systems to high-efficiency variable-speed inverter-driven equipment. Every installation includes a startup commissioning check, a walkthrough of your new system's operation, and our standard labor warranty.

What size AC system does a typical Greendale home need?

System size depends on your home's square footage, ceiling height, insulation levels, window area, and sun exposure — not just square footage alone. Burkhardt performs a Manual J load calculation on every installation to ensure your new system is correctly sized for your specific Greendale home, avoiding the comfort and efficiency problems that come with oversized or undersized equipment.

Do you offer financing for new AC installation?

Yes. Burkhardt offers GreenSky financing options, including promotional low-interest and deferred-interest plans, to make a new AC system affordable. Ask our comfort advisor about current promotions when you schedule your free in-home estimate.
