Our experienced team guides you through the process, ensuring you get the best AC system tailored to your needs.


Is It Time for a New AC?

At Reliable Heating & Cooling, we understand that it can be hard to know when it’s time for a new AC. Upgrading or replacing your HVAC system might seem daunting, but rest assured, we’re here to provide the support you need to make a decision you can feel good about for years to come. There are a few key signs to watch out for when your air conditioning unit needs to be replaced.


  • Your energy bills are rising.
  • You’re frequently calling for repairs.
  • Your system is more than 10 years old.
  • Your warranty has expired.
  • You’re feeling uneven temperatures throughout your home.
  • Your AC uses R22 refrigerant.


Enhanced Indoor Air Quality

Did you know that a new and efficient AC system can significantly improve your indoor air quality, thereby safeguarding your health? As your unit ages, its ability to filter dust, pollen, and other airborne pollutants decreases. Over time, you may notice that your allergies are flaring up even after regularly replacing your AC filters. Take advantage of the advanced filtration systems with today’s newer models and prioritize your health!

At Reliable Heating & Cooling, we take pride in assisting our Staten Island, NY, and surrounding area neighbors in making their HVAC system dreams a reality.

Ductless Mini-Splits

You might be surprised to learn that we offer ductless mini-splits as an option for air conditioning your home. If you live in a house without ducts installed or are adding new rooms, ductless mini-splits might be a perfect fit. This technology saves space and is an excellent choice for an energy-efficient HVAC unit.


Our trained technicians will carefully mount the indoor unit on your wall, ensuring minimal disruption to your home. The outdoor unit is then connected to the indoor unit with refrigerant tubing and electrical wiring. This creates a customizable cooling system that can be adjusted to suit your comfort needs.
