Expert AC Installation from Plymouth’s Family-Owned HVAC Specialists
Replacing an air conditioner is a significant investment, and you deserve a contractor who takes that seriously. At Brinks Heating & Air, I don’t push you toward an AC replacement unless it’s genuinely the right call. When it is, I make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible — from the initial assessment through installation and cleanup.
Brinks exclusively installs Goodman air conditioning equipment — reliable, cost-effective systems backed by a 10-year parts warranty on registered units. I serve homeowners throughout Plymouth, Maple Grove, and the surrounding western Twin Cities suburbs, and I handle everything from start to finish — including hauling away and disposing of your old system.

Signs It May Be Time to Replace Your Air Conditioner
Repair Costs Are Adding Up
If you’ve had multiple repairs in recent years or you’re facing a repair that costs more than half the price of a new system, replacement is often the smarter long-term investment. I’ll always give you an honest assessment of which direction makes more sense.
Your System Uses R-22 Refrigerant
Older AC systems that run on R-22 refrigerant — commonly known as Freon — face a significant challenge. R-22 has been phased out of production and is now extremely expensive to source. If your system develops a refrigerant leak and runs on R-22, the cost of recharging it often makes replacement the more practical choice.
Your Energy Bills Keep Climbing
Older, less efficient air conditioners cost more to run. If your cooling bills have been climbing without a clear explanation, your system’s declining efficiency may be the reason — and a new Goodman unit could deliver meaningful savings over time.
What to Expect When You Replace Your AC with Brinks
Assess Your Home & Your Needs — It starts with a thorough assessment of your home, your current system, and what you need from a new one. I take the time to understand your situation before making any recommendations — no one-size-fits-all solutions.
Receive a Clear, Written Quote — Once your need have been assessed, I’ll send you a written quote to review at your own pace. The quote is valid for 30 days, giving you time to make the right decision for your home and budget — without feeling rushed. Equipment, labor, and disposal of your old system are all included.
Install Your New AC – Usually Within the Week — Once you’re ready to move forward, I’ll schedule your installation at a time that works for you. In most cases, installation can be completed within the week. I work efficiently and cleanly, and when I’m done your old unit is gone and your new system is ready to keep you cool.

I exclusively install Goodman for the same reason I’ve done it for years — they consistently deliver the reliability, efficiency, and value that Minnesota homeowners need. Specializing in one brand means I know these systems inside and out, which translates to faster installations, fewer complications, and better outcomes for you.

Dave came out to look at my very old AC unit and was able to replace it within the next week. He came prepared with the new unit and the installation went very smooth. Dave and his team were great to work with from start to finish.
