FAQs
How can I tell whether my HVAC system needs to be replaced instead of repaired?
Most central heating and cooling systems last 12–15 years if they’ve been properly maintained. If your unit is approaching that age and you’re noticing rising energy bills, uneven temperatures, frequent repairs, or excessive noise, replacement is usually the more cost-effective option. Our Andersonville technicians will perform a detailed load calculation, inspect the compressor, heat exchanger, and refrigerant levels, and give you an honest recommendation based on operating cost comparisons between continued repair and a modern high-efficiency unit.
What does an HVAC replacement typically cost in Andersonville?
System price depends on home size, efficiency rating (SEER2/AFUE), and whether new ductwork or electrical upgrades are required. In Andersonville, most homeowners invest between $6,500 and $12,000 for a complete furnace-and-air-conditioner change-out, including equipment, labor, permits, and basic thermostat. High-efficiency heat pumps or variable-speed furnaces can add $1,500–$3,000 but often qualify for utility rebates and federal tax credits that offset the difference. We provide a written, line-item quote up-front so you know exactly where every dollar goes.
How long will the HVAC replacement process take from start to finish?
After the in-home consultation and signed proposal, most standard replacements are completed in a single day. Our crew arrives at 8 a.m., isolates power and gas, safely removes the old equipment, installs the new indoor and outdoor units, pressure-tests and evacuates the refrigerant lines, connects the thermostat, and performs a full start-up checklist and homeowner orientation by late afternoon. Larger homes, custom duct modifications, or attic installations can extend the job to two days, but we’ll let you know the timeline before work begins.
What kinds of systems can your Andersonville technicians install?
We are certified to install gas furnaces, air conditioners, dual-fuel systems, high-efficiency heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and geothermal units. All equipment comes from top manufacturers such as Trane, Lennox, Carrier, and Rheem, and we match the system capacity to your home’s Manual J load calculation to ensure optimal comfort and efficiency. We also provide smart thermostats, dehumidifiers, and high-MERV filtration options for a complete indoor air quality solution.
Are financing options, rebates, or tax incentives available for a new HVAC unit?
Yes. We partner with reputable lenders that offer 0 % interest for 12 months or low-APR plans up to 120 months, subject to credit approval. Andersonville residents served by TVA EnergyRight or local utilities may qualify for $200–$850 in rebates on ENERGY STAR heat pumps and furnaces. Federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act cover up to 30 % of the cost (capped at $2,000) for qualifying high-efficiency heat pumps and advanced gas furnaces. Our team handles the paperwork to make sure you receive every available incentive.
How will a new HVAC system improve my home’s comfort and energy efficiency?
Modern variable-speed compressors and ECM blower motors adjust output in small increments, eliminating hot and cold spots and keeping humidity between 45 % and 55 %. Systems with SEER2 ratings of 16–20 and AFUE ratings of 95 % or higher can cut annual utility expenses by 20–40 % compared with equipment installed 10–15 years ago. Quieter operation, better filtration, and enhanced warranty coverage (typically 10 years parts and labor) mean lower maintenance costs and peace of mind for the life of your new system.
