Helpful Information

Questions About Window & Wall HVAC?

Window and thru-the-wall Air Conditioning have different installation, maintenance and replacement considerations than central HVAC. These are some of the questions Jarman hears most often.

Jarman specializes in window units and thru-the-wall heating and cooling systems rather than central HVAC or ductless mini-split systems. That narrower focus allows us to work with the installation, fit and service issues that are specific to this type of equipment.

  • Window air conditioning and heating units
  • Thru-the-wall heating and cooling systems
  • Existing sleeve and wall-unit replacements
  • Custom installation and retrofit applications

Homeowners comparing equipment can also review room air conditioner guidance from the U.S. Department of Energy .

Yes, Jarman works with residential units in apartments, condominiums and high-rise properties as well as houses. Multi-unit buildings can involve different access, sleeve, opening and property-management requirements, so the existing installation should be evaluated carefully.

  • Apartment and condominium installations
  • High-rise window and wall-unit applications
  • Existing sleeve evaluation and replacement
  • Custom fitting for unusual openings
  • Coordination around building-specific installation conditions

For broader residential efficiency guidance, the ENERGY STAR program provides information about efficient home heating and cooling equipment.

The right choice depends on the age, condition, performance and repair needs of the existing equipment. Jarman can evaluate the unit and surrounding installation to help determine whether repair, replacement or a retrofit makes the most sense.

  • Age and overall condition of the unit
  • Frequency and cost of previous repairs
  • Cooling or heating performance
  • Compatibility with the existing wall sleeve or opening
  • Efficiency of available replacement equipment

The U.S. Department of Energy also explains how sizing and efficiency affect room air conditioner performance .

In many cases, an existing wall opening or sleeve can be adapted for newer equipment, but the dimensions and surrounding structure need to be checked first. Retrofitting may involve modifications to improve fit, support, sealing and the finished appearance of the installation.

  • Measure the existing sleeve or wall opening
  • Confirm compatibility with replacement equipment
  • Evaluate support and surrounding materials
  • Improve weather sealing where necessary
  • Finish the opening cleanly around the new unit

Proper air sealing is also important for comfort and energy use; the Department of Energy's air-sealing guidance explains why uncontrolled air leakage matters.

Routine maintenance helps window and wall equipment operate more effectively and can make it easier to identify problems before they become larger repairs. Seasonal service can also prepare window units for removal, storage and eventual reinstallation.

  • Clean or replace accessible filters
  • Inspect coils and airflow areas
  • Check for unusual noise, vibration or drainage problems
  • Inspect the installation and surrounding seals
  • Prepare removable window units for offseason storage

The U.S. Department of Energy's air conditioner maintenance guide offers additional general maintenance information.

So happy with the work Jarman did. I explained my problem and Mike knew exactly what I was talking about. He explained everything to me on exactly what he would do. I am really happy with the job and my air conditioner looks and works great. Thank you for a job well done.

Mike and Anthony installed and serviced an older model Friedrich air conditioner. It was nice to deal with two pleasant and professional technicians. Will definitely use Jarman again. Glad I made the call.

Jarman staff provided the best customer service I've experienced in the 42 years I've lived in Philadelphia. Everything went smoothly from my first contact through installation. The installation was scheduled quickly and the unit is working perfectly. The installers were friendly, quick, and took care to be very clean around the work area and leave everything back in place. My experience from beginning to end was excellent. I was referred to this company by a fellow resident in a Center City high rise who had a very similar experience. Word has traveled among residents about their excellent service.

I can't say enough about Jarman's Services as well as owner, Bob and installers Ron, Anthony and Mike. We had a 2 year old through the wall unit that broke, long story with obtaining parts etc., so Bob decided to replace it and give us a whole new unit. You just don't find that commitment today along with their excellent work ethics, professionalism and customer respect. I would have given them 10 stars if I could! Thank you, Bob and staff. P.S. The speed of the group is the speed of the leader and this is certainly reflected in Bob's staff. They are excellent!

I wanted to express the thanks and utmost appreciation and professionalism that Jarman company helped with the removal and installing of a new AC unit at the house. Being multiple states away everything was done via the phone with multiple members of staff. The options and communication was spot on and excellent customer service. Bob, Mike and Ron along with the rest of the team that I did not have to speak with, thanks very much and you now have a new customer for work in the Philadelphia area. Thanks again and outstanding work!

I called Jarman because my condo association recommended them and said Jarman had worked often in our complex. I appreciated Mike's quick phone response and straightforward assessment of what needed to be repaired or replaced and my options. He seemed trustworthy and continued to show up when he said he would and be in touch when he said he would be. The work was priced fairly and was completed in a timely manner and came with a one year warranty. Thanks, Mike!
