Our Response to the National AC Unit Shortage

Purchase a New AC System Now to Avoid Installation Delays

Penguin Air, Plumbing, and Electrical is taking precautions to avoid delays in air conditioning unit installations in anticipation of a national air conditioning unit shortage in Summer 2021.

Numerous AC manufacturers are experiencing supply chain shortages that can delay installs up to several weeks.

The COVID-19 pandemic, Texas ice storms, and global shipping crisis are crunching manufacturing supply chains. The air conditioning industry is no exception. According to Robert Beverly of ACHR News, “These shortages and common price increases can add up to have a meaningful impact on HVAC companies”.

Penguin Air, Plumbing, and Electric is committed to getting ahead of the Air Conditioning shortage to ensure high-quality comfort and customer service for our customers. Penguin Air strives to meet next-day installation demands.

We urge customers with AC units 10 years or older who are considering replacing their system to act now. Contact Penguin Air to receive a free estimate on a new Air Conditioning unit and avoid delayed installations during the hottest months of the summer.
