FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my HVAC unit in Jellico rather than repair it?
Most systems in our region last 10–15 years. If your unit is nearing that age, needs frequent or costly repairs, struggles to keep up with summer humidity or winter cold, or causes your utility bills to spike, replacement is usually the smarter long-term investment. A quick load calculation and system inspection by our technicians will confirm whether a new system will save you more than repeated repairs.
What size HVAC system does my Jellico home need?
Correct sizing is critical: too small and it will run constantly, too large and it will short-cycle, waste energy and wear out. We perform a Manual J heat-gain/heat-loss analysis that factors in the square footage of your home, insulation levels, window types, orientation, local Jellico climate data, and even the number of occupants. This engineering approach ensures you get a unit that is perfectly matched to your home’s heating and cooling loads.
How much does an HVAC replacement typically cost in Jellico?
Prices vary with capacity, efficiency rating (SEER2/HSPF), and add-ons such as smart thermostats or indoor-air-quality upgrades. Most homeowners can expect $6,500–$12,000 for a complete system change-out, including removal of the old equipment, new refrigerant-compliant line sets, and thermostat. High-efficiency heat-pump systems or dual-fuel setups can be higher. We provide a written, line-item estimate upfront and offer financing plans with low monthly payments.
How long does the replacement process take, and will I be without heating or cooling?
A standard replacement is normally completed in one day. Our crew arrives with all equipment, protects floors and furniture, removes the old unit, installs the new air handler, condenser, and thermostat, charges the system with EPA-approved refrigerant, and runs a full performance test. Your home typically experiences only a few hours of down-time, and we schedule work to minimize disruption.
Are permits or inspections required for HVAC replacement in Jellico, and do you handle them?
Yes. Campbell County and the City of Jellico require a mechanical permit for any new HVAC installation or replacement. An inspection ensures the work meets building and electrical codes. Our office secures the permit, schedules the inspector, and provides all documentation. Permit and inspection fees are included in your quote, so you have no paperwork hassles.
What kind of warranties and post-installation support do you provide?
Your new system comes with a 10-year manufacturer’s parts warranty and a 1-year labor warranty, which we extend to 10 years when you enroll in our Preventive Maintenance Plan. The plan includes two seasonal tune-ups, priority emergency service, and 15% discounts on accessories and filters. All warranty registration is completed by our staff, and we keep digital records for your convenience.
