Financing available. Installing New AC Systems Since 1988
Most homeowners hesitate to replace an air conditioner until it completely fails. But waiting can mean higher bills, uncomfortable nights, and emergency breakdowns. Watch for these signs:
If your electric bills keep climbing even after repairs, your AC is likely losing efficiency. Older systems can cost hundreds more per year to run.
Calling every summer (or worse, multiple times a season) means your AC is on its last legs. In many cases, putting repair money toward a new unit is smarter.
Ohio summers aren’t just hot — they’re sticky. An aging AC may blow air but fail to dehumidify properly, leaving your home muggy and uncomfortable.
If your AC never shuts off, even in mild weather, it’s struggling. Oversized systems cycle too quickly, while failing systems run endlessly without reaching set temps.
Units that still use R-22 (Freon) are expensive to service and increasingly difficult to repair since the refrigerant is no longer produced.
With proper maintenance, most systems last 12–15 years. After that, efficiency and reliability drop sharply, making replacement the most cost-effective option.

Every home and family has different cooling needs. That’s why Tin Man offers more than just a “one-size-fits-all” air conditioner. We design systems specifically for Ohio’s housing stock, climate, and energy demands:
Central Air Conditioning
The most common choice for Northwest Ohio homes, central AC provides even cooling throughout every room. Today’s units are much more efficient than models built even 10 years ago, often delivering 20–40% energy savings. If your home already has ductwork in place, central AC is often the most cost-effective upgrade.
Ductless Mini-Splits
Perfect for homes without ductwork or for spaces like attics, basements, and room additions. Mini-splits allow you to cool only the rooms you use most, giving you precise comfort and lowering your energy bills. They’re also whisper-quiet and double as heaters in cooler months.
Heat Pumps
A smart choice for efficiency-minded homeowners, heat pumps do the job of two systems — cooling in the summer and heating in the winter. They’re ideal for Ohio’s seasonal swings and can be paired with your existing furnace for maximum comfort and savings.
High-Velocity / Small Duct Systems
Some of Bowling Green and Toledo’s historic homes weren’t built for bulky ductwork. High-velocity systems use small, flexible ducts that fit into tight spaces without major remodeling. You get the comfort of central AC without losing your home’s character.
Zoned Systems
Why pay to cool the whole house when you only need comfort in certain rooms? Zoned systems let you control temperatures in different areas independently. This reduces wasted energy and keeps everyone in the family happy — no more thermostat battles.
Not sure which option is right for you? Tin Man’s experts will look at your home size, insulation, ductwork, and budget before making a recommendation. Our goal is to give you a system that’s efficient, reliable, and tailored to your needs.
