We install Rheem air conditioning systems in Marietta homes every week, and a full Rheem AC installation here typically runs $3,500 to $7,500 depending on the model line and the condition of your existing ductwork. Most installs are completed in one day, and we always put the price in writing before any equipment gets ordered or a single tool comes off the truck. As an independent Rheem service provider, we’re not tied to Rheem corporate, which means we recommend the Rheem system that fits your house and budget, not the one a manufacturer pushes.

If you want a free estimate for Rheem AC installation in Marietta, call (229) 514-0545 and talk to a real person, any hour.

How Rheem Products Fail – and How We Fix Them
Rheem builds solid equipment, but after years of Georgia heat and humidity, certain failure patterns show up more often than others. Here’s what we see on Rheem systems in Marietta and how we handle each one when it’s time for AC installation.
- Rheem Classic Series (RA14/RA16) capacitor failures. The Classic line is Rheem’s entry-level single-stage unit, and in Marietta’s summer heat, the run capacitor takes a beating. When it weakens, the compressor struggles to start, the outdoor unit hums without spinning, and homeowners think the whole system is dead. Often it’s a $20 part, but if the unit is 12+ years old and the capacitor has failed twice, we’ll walk you through the math on replacement versus another repair.
- Rheem Prestige Series (RA17/RA20) inverter board sensitivity. Prestige units use variable-speed inverter technology that’s efficient but picky about power quality. Marietta’s frequent summer thunderstorms and voltage dips can fry the inverter board, a $400 to $600 repair. On a newer unit under warranty, we handle the part claim. On an older Prestige where the warranty has lapsed, we’ll show you the repair cost alongside the price of a new system so you decide with real numbers.
- Rheem Endurance Series (RP14/RP15) heat pump reversing valve wear. The Endurance heat pump line runs year-round in Marietta, switching between cooling and heating. The reversing valve cycles constantly, and when it sticks, the system blows warm air in July. That’s a repair we can make, but if the system is aging and the compressor is next in line to fail, we recommend replacement before you’re stuck without AC in August.
- Rheem evaporator coil leaks on systems paired with older furnaces. We see this a lot in Marietta homes where a Rheem AC was added to an existing furnace. The copper-aluminum coils develop pinhole leaks over time, especially with our humidity and pollen load. A leak means a refrigerant recharge that may hold for a season or may not. If we’re already adding refrigerant twice a year, a new coil or a full system swap makes more sense.
- Rheem Econet thermostat compatibility issues with third-party smart thermostats. Homeowners in Marietta who installed a Nest or Ecobee on a Rheem communicating system sometimes lose the variable-speed and humidity control features. The system runs, but not at peak efficiency. If you’re replacing a system and want a smart thermostat, we’ll spec the right control setup so you don’t lose features you paid for.

Our Rheem AC Installation Process
We built our install process around the thing that drives Marietta homeowners crazy: not knowing what’s happening or what it costs. Here’s how a Rheem AC installation with Halden Heating and Air Marietta actually goes.
- 1
Call or book online. You reach a live person, not a voicemail tree. We schedule a time and you get a live arrival window you can track to the door.
- 2
In-home assessment. We measure the house, look at your ductwork, check the electrical panel, and talk about how you use the space. We also look at the existing Rheem unit’s condition and history.
- 3
Written price, in your hand. We put a fixed price in writing for the system and the labor before you agree to anything. That price doesn’t change at the door.
- 4
System selection. We walk you through Rheem model options (Classic, Endurance, Prestige) with the actual cost difference for each, plus the efficiency ratings and what they mean for your utility bill in Marietta.
- 5
Install day. Uniformed, background-checked techs arrive on time. We install the new Rheem system, run the refrigerant lines, make the electrical connections, and replace any damaged duct runs. Most installs finish the same day.
- 6
Test, verify, and guarantee. We test the full system in cooling mode, verify airflow and refrigerant charge, and walk you through the thermostat setup. You get our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing, plus the Rheem manufacturer warranty paperwork.
What Rheem AC Installation Costs in Marietta
Here’s what Rheem AC installation in Marietta realistically costs based on the systems we install most often.
- Rheem Classic Series (RA14, 14 SEER2 single-stage): $3,500 to $4,800 installed, depending on tonnage and whether we’re replacing the furnace coil at the same time.
- Rheem Endurance Series (RP15, 15 SEER2 heat pump): $4,200 to $5,800 installed. Heat pumps cost a bit more up front but handle both heating and cooling, which matters in Marietta’s shoulder seasons.
- Rheem Prestige Series (RA17/RA20, 17-20 SEER2 variable-speed): $5,500 to $7,500 installed. These are the quiet, efficient models, and the higher price reflects the inverter technology and longer warranty.
What moves the price: the size of your home in tons, the condition of your existing ductwork, whether your electrical panel needs an upgrade, and whether we’re replacing just the AC or the full system with a new Rheem furnace or air handler. We don’t pad the price with mystery fees. The quote we hand you is the price you pay. Call (229) 514-0545 for a free estimate on Rheem AC installation in Marietta.

AfterWhy Marietta Homeowners Call Halden Heating and Air Marietta for Rheem Work
Andre Fuller started Halden Heating and Air on a rule he picked up early in his HVAC career: put the price in writing before anyone opens a panel. He grew up in Los Angeles, learned the trade at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, and spent nearly two decades working on everything from rooftop package units to crawlspace air handlers before building this company. You’ll see our trucks around Marietta Square regularly, keeping older homes and newer builds cool through Georgia’s punishing summer humidity.
What that means for your Rheem job: a written price before work starts, a written guarantee on every installation, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise that gives you a full year of accountability. If something’s not right, we come back and make it right, no arguing. Plus, if you ever need service on another brand, we’re certified on Carrier, Trane, and Lennox too, so one call covers it.
Straight answer, written price, done right.
FAQs
Most Rheem AC installations in Marietta are completed in one day. If we’re replacing ductwork, upgrading the electrical panel, or installing a full system with a new furnace or air handler, it may take a second day, and we’ll tell you that before we schedule anything.
Yes. Every Rheem system we install comes with the manufacturer’s warranty (typically 10 years on the compressor and major components if you register the unit), plus our 365-Day Done Right Promise on the installation work itself. If our workmanship fails within that year, we come back and fix it at no charge.
If your Rheem system is under 10 years old and the repair is under $650, repair usually makes sense. If it’s over 12 years old, has had multiple capacitor or coil failures, or needs a compressor replacement, replacement is usually the better financial call in Marietta’s climate. We’ll show you both numbers and let you decide.
Yes. Rheem makes solid heat pumps in the Endurance and Prestige lines, and for many Marietta homes a heat pump makes sense because it handles both cooling and heating. We’ll price both options so you can compare the installed cost and the efficiency ratings side by side.
Common Rheem parts like capacitors, contactors, and fan motors are usually available same-day or next-day from local supply houses in the Marietta area. Specialized parts for the Prestige line, like inverter boards, may take a few days if they’re not in stock locally. If your system is down and parts are delayed, we’ll tell you exactly how long the wait is expected to be and give you options.
