  • Will my insurance cover HVAC repairs or replacements?

    Typically, we can complete standard residential installations within one to two days. However, more complex systems or those requiring significant ductwork modifications may require additional time. We'll provide you with a specific timeline during your consultation.

  • How can I improve my HVAC system's efficiency?

    Several strategies can enhance your HVAC system's efficiency: schedule regular maintenance, replace filters monthly, utilize a programmable thermostat, and ensure proper home insulation. These steps can help maximize efficiency and reduce energy costs.

  • What size HVAC system do I need?

    Determining the appropriate HVAC system size involves considering factors such as your home's square footage, insulation quality, layout, and local climate. Our technicians conduct a comprehensive load calculation to recommend the ideal system size for your specific needs.

  • How long should my HVAC system last?

    With proper maintenance, furnaces typically have a lifespan of 15 to 20 years, while air conditioners usually last 10 to 15 years. Regular professional service can extend your system's lifespan and maintain its efficiency over time.
