Frequently Asked Questions
How Much is an Air Conditioner?
Air conditioners can range in price from a few thousand dollars to several thousand. The price can vary based on the size of your home, your current HVAC systems, the efficiency you’re looking for, and many other factors. Speak with one of Appolo Heating’s experts today to find the best system.
Does Air Conditioning Use Gas?
Not typically! We have air conditioning systems that run on all types of energy sources, including electric, geothermal, and, yes, gas! Geothermal cooling taps into the ground’s energy. This energy is generated through the use of an open or closed earth loop. Geothermal technology is utilized to provide your home or business with efficient heating & cooling. Speak with one of Appolo’s experts today to see if a geothermal system is right for you.
What is Ductless Air Conditioning?
Ductless air conditioning systems provide cooling for specific areas of your home without the hassle of ductwork. Ductless air conditioning, also known as mini-split systems, will keep your rooms at a constant cool temperature without the disturbance of window air conditioning units. It also gives you the ability to only cool the rooms you want without having to cool the entire building. A complete ductless system includes an outdoor and indoor unit. A ductless heat pump system operates the same way as its cooling counterpart, with the ability to heat your home or business. Speak with one of Appolo’s experts today to find out how we can make ductless work for you.
How Long Do Air Conditioners Last?
Air conditioners typically last anywhere from 6 to 18 years. Various factors go into projecting how long a system should last, including how many hours the system is run on a daily basis, the environment in which the system is used, and most significantly, how well the equipment is maintained. Appolo Heating offers a Priority Customer Service Agreement intended to keep your air conditioning equipment running at full efficiency by providing you with routine preventive maintenance and emergency repair services.

Does Air Conditioning Reduce Humidity?
Air conditioning systems are actually dehumidifiers and are designed to reduce the humidity in your home. The moisture from the air condenses and is removed through a drain. Although it will help, depending on the temperature and humidity you would like to keep your home at, this process will also cool the area. If you are looking to dehumidify without cooling, Appolo offers whole-house dehumidification systems to create a more comfortable home environment without overcooling. Speak with an Appolo expert today to find the best system for your home.
