Get your free estimateFast, Reliable AC Installation Across North Las Vegas
A new air conditioning system in North Las Vegas typically costs between $3,500 and $7,500, and the installation itself usually takes one to two days once your equipment arrives. We serve every neighborhood from the older ranch streets near Lake Mead Blvd. to the new builds pushing north past the 215, with crews that know exactly what Mojave heat and sand do to an AC system over time. If your current unit is struggling or dead, call us at (775) 257-9022 and we’ll send someone out to give you a written price before any work starts.
North Las Vegas is not a generic desert city. The housing stock spans two completely different eras, and the home you live in dictates how an AC install should be approached. Whether you’re in a 1960s slab-on-grade ranch with original galvanized ducts or a 2010s master-planned community with tight building envelopes, the details matter. We are the AC Installation team that treats those details as the job, not an afterthought.
Why Meadowsweet Heating and Air Henderson Is North Las Vegas’s Preferred AC Installation Company
Our name comes from a wildflower people once strewed across floors to keep a room fresh. That standard shapes how we work: we protect your floors, your air, your pets, and your sleeping kids while we install. Every one of our technicians is background-checked and uniformed, and they follow a code we call C.A.R.E. Clean up like it’s their own home. Ask before moving anything. Respect the family’s time and quiet hours. Explain the price before the work. That’s not a personality quirk. It’s a system.
We’re part of the Cedarwell family of HVAC companies, founded in 2004, and we work on equipment from nine major brands: Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, Daikin, Bryant, and American Standard. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every install. If something isn’t right, we make it right. No runarounds, no fine print. When a North Las Vegas family calls us, a live person answers. 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays. No voicemail queue, ever.
Luis Serrano leads our team, and he holds every technician to one simple test: would you be comfortable having this crew work in your own mother’s house? If the answer is no, the crew doesn’t roll. That standard matters in North Las Vegas, where word travels fast between neighbors and nobody has time for an HVAC company that shows up late, leaves a mess, or surprises you with a price after the fact.
Styles & brands we work with
Furnace Installation in North Las Vegas
Furnace Installation in North Las Vegas usually runs $2,500 to $6,000 depending on the size of your home and the condition of your existing ductwork, and for rural properties without a natural gas line, a propane furnace or dual-fuel setup is often the better call. December nights in the Mojave can dip below freezing, and older ranch homes with single-pane windows lose heat fast. A properly sized furnace keeps those mornings comfortable without running your utility bill through the roof. Before we recommend any system, we measure the house, inspect the ducts, and calculate the heating load room by room. No box swap, no guesswork.
Propane and Dual-Fuel Options for Rural Lots
Many properties north of the city and east toward the desert edge don’t have natural gas service. For those homes, a propane furnace paired with a high-efficiency heat pump gives you true year-round comfort, with the heat pump handling mild desert winters and the propane furnace kicking in only when it genuinely gets cold. We’ll spec the tank placement, the line sizing, and the furnace output based on your home’s actual heat loss, not a rule of thumb.
When Replacing an Old Furnace Makes Sense
If your furnace is over 15 years old, has needed multiple Furnace Repair calls in the last two seasons, or has a heat exchanger that’s starting to show rust, replacement is usually the smarter money. In North Las Vegas homes with attic-ducted systems, an old furnace often fights against leaky ducts that waste 20 to 30 percent of the air you paid to heat. We check that before recommending any new equipment, because a new furnace attached to bad ducts is a waste of your money.
HVAC Installation in North Las Vegas
HVAC Installation in North Las Vegas means pairing the right furnace, air handler, and condenser for homes that see 105°F summers and occasional below-freezing winter nights. A complete system install here generally falls between $5,500 and $12,000 when you’re replacing both heating and cooling equipment, and the range depends heavily on whether you need new ductwork, upgraded electrical service, or a heat pump rather than a traditional split system. We start every project with a Manual J load calculation and a duct-leakage test. That’s not optional in this city. The decades-old ducts under many roofs here would bleed the efficiency out of any new system we installed.
Heat Pump Systems for Desert Homes
Newer North Las Vegas homes, especially those built after 2005, often use heat pumps rather than gas furnaces. Heat pumps are efficient in the Mojave’s moderate winters and pair well with the solar panels many homeowners have added in recent years. We service and install heat pump systems from Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, and Goodman, and we’ll explain the difference between a standard heat pump and a cold-climate version before you commit to anything.
Complete System Replacement for Slab-on-Grade Ranches
The 1960s and 70s ranch homes around Civic Center Drive and Lake Mead Blvd. present a specific challenge. They were built before modern insulation standards, and their original ductwork is often galvanized steel that has corroded at the seams over five decades. We’ve seen systems lose up to 30 percent of conditioned air into attics that hit 140°F in July. A proper HVAC Installation in these homes means addressing the ducts, not just swapping the box.
Trusted Brands We Service in North Las Vegas
We work on equipment from Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, Daikin, Bryant, and American Standard, and we keep common parts in stock for the brands North Las Vegas homeowners already have. If you’ve got a failing Goodman split system, we can usually source the replacement coil or capacitor quickly. If you prefer Lennox repair in North Las Vegas or a Rheem furnace for your new install, we’ll price it out and walk you through the differences honestly. Our relationship with local supply houses in the Las Vegas valley means we’re not waiting on parts to ship from out of state. That matters when your AC dies on a 108° day in July.

AfterCommon AC Installation Problems We See in North Las Vegas Homes
- Corroded 1970s galvanized ducts hidden in attics. These leak at the seams and can waste a third of your conditioned air before it ever reaches a room. The fix is sealing and wrapping, or full replacement if the metal has rusted through.
- Oversized condensers that short-cycle and leave the house humid. Some contractors skip the load calculation and just put in a bigger unit. That’s a mistake, especially during monsoon season when North Las Vegas gets bursts of afternoon humidity. A properly sized system runs longer, pulls more moisture, and costs less to operate.
- Condenser units placed on the west side of the house with zero wind shelter. Blowing Mojave sand packs the fins, the system pressures rise, and the compressor works itself to death. We relocate or shield condensers on exposed lots so they’re not eating sand every afternoon.
- Reusing old refrigerant linesets that are the wrong diameter or have old R-22 residue. New R-410A and R-454B systems need clean, correctly sized lines. Flushing an old lineset is sometimes fine, but on many older North Las Vegas homes, a new lineset is the only way to hit factory pressures and efficiency.
Pricing for AC Installation in North Las Vegas, NV
A typical AC Installation in North Las Vegas runs $3,500 to $7,500 for the full job, and most families land right around $5,000 for a standard 3-ton system in a 1,200 to 1,800 square foot single-story home.
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| AC Installation | $3,500 – $7,500 |
| AC Repair | $150 – $650 |
| Furnace Repair | $150 – $700 |
| Tune-Up | $80 – $200 |
What moves the number within that range? Duct work. If your home has 1970s galvanized ducts that need sealing, wrapping, or replacement, that’s real labor and material on top of the equipment. A 1960s slab-on-grade ranch with original ducts will land on the higher end. A newer home with tight flex ducts and a simple equipment swap lands on the lower end. We give you a written price before any work starts, and that price doesn’t change after we open things up. Call (775) 257-9022 for a free estimate. We’ll come out, measure the house, inspect the ducts, and give you real numbers you can plan around.

FAQs About AC Installation in North Las Vegas
A heat pump paired with a propane furnace as backup is usually the best answer for rural North Las Vegas homes outside the natural gas service area. The heat pump handles the mild desert winters efficiently, and the propane furnace takes over when temperatures drop below about 35°F. We’ll run a fuel-cost comparison based on your actual utility rates before recommending one over the other. Call (775) 257-9022 and we’ll walk through the numbers for your specific property.
Yes. We size and install mini split systems and compact split units for detached workshops, garages, and outbuildings throughout North Las Vegas. A properly sized mini split can cool a 400 to 800 square foot shop efficiently, and we’ll evaluate the insulation, window placement, and sun exposure before recommending a unit. We also handle the electrical panel requirements, so the whole job is done to local code.
We run a Manual J load calculation that accounts for full west sun, no wind break, and the specific construction of your home. A house with full west exposure in North Las Vegas can gain 20 to 30 percent more heat on summer afternoons than the same house on a sheltered lot. That changes the condenser sizing, and it also changes where we place the unit. On exposed lots, we position the condenser on the north or east side, add a wind and sand shield, and select equipment rated for continuous high-ambient operation.
SEER2 is the updated efficiency standard that reflects real-world installed conditions, including duct losses, rather than laboratory ideals. The U.S. Department of Energy now requires new equipment to meet SEER2 minimums, and in North Las Vegas, the difference actually matters more than it does in milder climates. Hot attics and long duct runs eat efficiency. A SEER2-rated system tested under those conditions gives you a more honest picture of what your utility bill will look like. We install SEER2-compliant equipment from Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, and Goodman and will show you the ratings for every unit we quote.
The biggest reason is attaching a brand-new high-efficiency condenser to 1970s galvanized ductwork that leaks up to 30 percent of its air into a 140°F attic. The new unit runs fine, but the house never cools properly, the humidity stays high, and the homeowner blames the equipment. That’s why we run a static pressure and duct-leakage test before we quote any install in the older neighborhoods around Lake Mead Blvd. and Civic Center Drive. If the ducts are bad, we fix them as part of the job. Otherwise you’re pouring money into a leaky bucket.
