FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my HVAC unit in Oneida?
Most systems last 12–15 years. Warning signs include rising utility bills, uneven temperatures, frequent repairs over the past two years, loud or unusual noises, and refrigerant leaks. Because our Central New York climate puts heavy year-round demand on equipment, age-related wear shows up faster than in milder regions. A free in-home evaluation by our technicians will confirm whether repair or full replacement is the most cost-effective option.
What is the average cost of an HVAC replacement in the Oneida area?
A complete high-efficiency furnace and central air package typically ranges from $7,500 to $12,500 installed, depending on system size, efficiency rating (SEER2/AFUE), duct modifications, and optional accessories such as smart thermostats or air purifiers. Heat pump systems generally run $9,000–$15,000 because of the added electrification components. We provide a detailed, line-item estimate on-site so there are no surprises.
How long does installation take and will I be without heat or AC during the process?
Most standard replacements are completed in a single day. We arrive by 8 a.m., remove the old equipment, set the new unit, reconnect ducts, gas/electrical lines, charge the refrigerant, and run final commissioning tests. Your home is typically without heating or cooling for 4–6 hours. For complex jobs (e.g., ductwork redesign or multi-zone systems), the project may extend to two days; we schedule work to minimize downtime and can provide temporary heaters or window AC units if needed.
Are there energy rebates or incentives for upgrading my HVAC system in Oneida?
Yes. National Grid and NYSEG both offer rebates of $200–$600 for high-efficiency furnaces and up to $1,200 for qualifying air-source heat pumps. In addition, the federal Inflation Reduction Act provides a 30 % tax credit (maximum $2,000) on heat pumps and qualifying high-efficiency central AC. We handle all paperwork, verify model eligibility, and apply the rebate as an instant discount whenever possible.
What warranties and maintenance plans come with a new unit?
Our featured manufacturers cover parts for 10 years and compressors/heat exchangers for up to 20 years when the product is registered within 60 days. We add a 2-year labor warranty at no additional cost. After installation, you can join our Comfort Club, which includes two precision tune-ups per year, priority service, and 15 % off future repairs. Keeping up with annual maintenance is required to maintain factory warranty validity.
Do you offer financing for HVAC replacements?
Absolutely. We partner with multiple lenders to provide 0 % APR plans for 12–18 months and low-interest options stretched over 5–10 years. Approval decisions are typically made within minutes using a soft credit check that does not impact your credit score. Many homeowners in Oneida find that the monthly energy savings from a high-efficiency system cover most—or all—of the financed payment.
