Choosing the right air conditioning system for your Hales Corners 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 Hales Corners 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.
Hales Corners's 1950s–70s ranch and split-level homes along W. Janesville Road, S. 108th Street, and the Root River Parkway greenbelt require careful system sizing. The village's bowl-like topography and clay soils create standing-water drainage challenges and basement humidity. 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.
Nestled between whitnall park and boerner botanical gardens, every home has its own set of installation challenges. The village's 50–70 year-old housing stock means many furnaces and AC units are at or past their expected service life. 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. Call Burkhardt at 414-206-3049 to schedule a free in-home estimate for your Hales Corners AC installation.
What size AC system does a typical Hales Corners 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 Hales Corners 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.
