FAQs
When should I consider replacing my HVAC unit instead of repairing it?
Most systems last 12–15 years. If yours is approaching that age, requires frequent repairs, uses R-22 refrigerant, or your energy bills keep climbing, replacement is usually the smarter long-term solution. A new high-efficiency system can cut utility costs by 20–40 percent and comes with a full manufacturer warranty, giving you reliable comfort and lower operating expenses.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take, and will I be without heating or cooling during the process?
For most homes in Andersonville, a standard furnace and air-conditioner swap can be completed in one day. We arrive with all equipment and materials, remove the old unit, set the new system, run new refrigerant lines or venting if required, pressure-test, evacuate, and start up the system. You’ll be without heating or cooling only while we disconnect the old unit—usually 4–6 hours—so plan for mild clothing layers indoors. We schedule installations around Chicago weather to keep downtime as painless as possible.
What size HVAC system do I need for my Andersonville home?
Proper sizing is critical; an oversized unit will short-cycle and waste energy, while an undersized system will struggle on extreme days. We perform a Manual J load calculation that factors in square footage, insulation levels, window orientation, occupancy, and even appliance heat gain. This engineering approach determines the exact BTU capacity and airflow your home requires, ensuring balanced comfort in every room and optimal efficiency.
Are there energy-efficiency rebates or tax credits available in Andersonville?
Yes. ComEd and Peoples Gas currently offer rebates of $300–$1,125 for qualifying high-efficiency furnaces, air conditioners, and heat pumps. In addition, the federal Inflation Reduction Act provides up to a $2,000 tax credit for heat pumps and a 30 % credit (up to $600) for high-efficiency furnaces or central ACs. We handle all paperwork, verify model numbers, and submit your application so you receive every dollar you’re entitled to.
How much will a new HVAC system cost, and what financing options do you offer?
Installed pricing in the Andersonville area typically ranges from $6,000 for a 13-SEER AC and 80 % furnace combo to $14,000+ for a variable-speed furnace with a 20-SEER inverter heat pump. Exact cost depends on system size, efficiency rating, duct modifications, and accessory items such as humidifiers or smart thermostats. We partner with multiple lenders to provide 0 % APR plans up to 18 months and low-interest terms up to 120 months, subject to credit approval.
What warranties and maintenance plans come with my new HVAC installation?
All systems we install include a 10-year manufacturer parts warranty and a 1-year labor warranty. Opt for our Platinum Protection Plan and we extend labor coverage to 10 years and provide two precision tune-ups per year, priority scheduling, and 15 % off future repairs. Routine maintenance keeps your warranty valid, maximizes efficiency, and helps the equipment reach its full service life.
