Professional Thru-The-Wall AC Installation in New York City
Weather Makers NYC is a licensed HVAC contractor specializing in thru-the-wall air conditioner installation, replacement, and wall sleeve installation across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Thru-the-wall AC units are permanently installed through an exterior wall using a metal sleeve — one of the most common cooling and heating solutions in NYC apartments, co-ops, condos, hotels, and commercial spaces.Whether you need a new wall opening cut in a brick or concrete wall, a like-for-like unit replacement in an existing sleeve, or a full sleeve upgrade with a new unit, our licensed technicians handle every aspect — structural cutting, framing, electrical, exterior weatherproofing, and co-op board compliance documentation.With over 10 years of NYC building experience, we know co-op boards, building management requirements, and DOB codes inside out.
🏠New Thru-The-Wall AC Installation
Installing a thru-the-wall AC for the first time — no existing wall opening. We cut the wall, install the sleeve, frame the surround, connect the electrical, and install your new unit in one professional visit.
🔄Old Unit Replacement
Existing thru-wall AC is 10+ years old, inefficient, or failing — we remove the old unit, inspect and clean or replace the sleeve if needed, and install a new high-efficiency model the same day.
🦺Rusted or Damaged Sleeve Replacement
An old, rusted, or improperly sized sleeve allows water infiltration, air leaks, and heat loss — we replace it with a new properly-fitted weatherproof sleeve and reseal the exterior surround completely.
🧱New Wall Opening Cutting
No existing opening in your NYC apartment or room — we professionally cut through brick, concrete block, or drywall, install framing and the metal sleeve, and prepare the opening for your new unit.

Your existing electrical circuit cannot support a new higher-efficiency unit — we upgrade the circuit, install a dedicated outlet, and ensure full compliance with NYC electrical code.

Thru-The-Wall AC vs PTAC vs Ductless Mini Split in NYC
Thru-the-wall AC is the right choice for NYC apartments, co-ops, and condos that already have a wall opening and sleeve in place or where installing a sleeve is feasible. Thru-wall units are self-contained, require no outdoor condenser unit, and provide both cooling and electric heat from a single wall-mounted unit. They are ideal for single rooms or studios.
PTAC units are similar to thru-the-wall ACs in that they mount through the wall but PTACs are primarily found in hotels and commercial buildings. They use a different sleeve design and connect to building electrical systems differently. Many NYC buildings use PTACs and thru-wall units interchangeably depending on their sleeve dimensions.
Ductless mini splits are better for spaces where no wall sleeve exists and installing one is impractical or where multiple rooms need independent temperature control from a single outdoor unit. Mini splits require an exterior wall penetration for refrigerant lines but no sleeve. They are more energy-efficient than thru-wall units but have higher installation costs.
