For a 2,000 sq ft house, this climate points to a heating load somewhere near 40,000 BTU/h. Treat that as a starting number.

The median Flower Mound home dates to 1997, according to the Census ACS. That makes the typical house about 29 years old.

With a median household income of $157,737 and a median home value of $514,100, local labor rates come out above the national middle in our model.
Denton County had 53 hail days and 31 days with damaging thunderstorm winds from 2020 through 2025, according to NOAA storm records. The largest hail reported was 5.9 inches across. Hail flattens the thin aluminum fins on condenser coils and cuts airflow. After a big storm, take a look at the outdoor unit; homeowners insurance often covers the damage. Denton County also had 4 tornado days in that period.

Texas Permits, Efficiency Rules and Rebates
Texas is in the DOE's Southeast region, where new split central air conditioners need at least 14.3 SEER2 (13.8 SEER2 for systems of 45,000 BTU/h and up). Equipment replacements in Flower Mound generally need a mechanical permit, and a reputable contractor will pull it for you. Ask for their Texas license or registration number and a certificate of insurance with the quote. The federal 25C tax credit ended for equipment installed after December 31, 2025, so incentives now come mostly from utilities and state programs. Check your electric and gas utility's rebate page before you pick equipment.
