Good / Better / Best
Every homestead is different. We size and recommend systems based on your home, your budget, and your comfort goals — never on commission.
★ Good
Reliable, budget-friendly systems that get the job done. SEER2 ratings of 14-15 for solid efficiency without the premium price tag. Perfect for rentals or budget-conscious homeowners.
★ Better
Mid-range systems with higher SEER2 ratings (16-17), quieter operation, and better humidity control. The sweet spot for most San Antonio homes — comfort and value balanced.
★ Best
Top-tier Trane systems with SEER2 18+, variable-speed compressors, smart connectivity, and whisper-quiet operation. Maximum comfort, lowest bills, longest warranties.

How much does a new AC system cost in San Antonio?
New AC systems typically range from $4,500 to $15,000+ depending on size, efficiency, and features. Cowboys provides free in-home assessments with detailed Good/Better/Best quotes.
How long does installation take?
Most standard replacements are completed in one day (6-8 hours). New installations or complex ductwork modifications may take 1-2 days.
What size AC do I need?
System sizing depends on square footage, insulation, window exposure, ductwork, and more. We perform a Manual J load calculation to determine the exact right size — oversized systems waste energy and undersized ones can't keep up.
Do you install brands other than Trane?
Yes. While we recommend Trane for their reliability and warranty, we install Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and other major brands based on your preference and budget.
