FAQs
How do I know if my HVAC system needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
In Tullahoma’s climate, systems run almost year-round. If your equipment is 10–15 years old, needs frequent or costly repairs, struggles to keep set temperatures, or your energy bills keep climbing, replacement is usually more economical. A simple rule is the 50% guideline—if a repair costs more than half the price of a new system and the unit is over a decade old, replacement offers better long-term value.
What size HVAC unit is right for my home in Tullahoma?
Proper sizing is critical. We perform a Manual J load calculation that considers square footage, insulation levels, window type, orientation, and local weather data for Coffee and Franklin counties. Undersized units run nonstop and still won’t cool, while oversized units short-cycle, causing humidity problems and higher utility costs. After the load calculation, we recommend the correct tonnage—often 2–5 tons for most homes here—along with matched indoor coils and air handlers.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take?
Most standard residential replacements are completed in a single day. We arrive by 8 a.m., disconnect the old equipment, set the new condenser and air handler or furnace, reconnect all electrical and refrigerant lines, charge the system with R-410A or R-454B, and test airflow and thermostat operation. For more complex jobs—like adding new ductwork or zoning—expect 2–3 days. We confirm timing at the estimate so you can plan accordingly.
Are high-efficiency systems and rebates available in Tullahoma?
Yes. Units with a SEER2 rating of 15.2 or higher and ENERGY STAR certification qualify for rebates through TVA’s EnergyRight program and sometimes local utility incentives. Federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act can cover up to 30% of the cost (maximum $2,000) for qualifying heat pumps installed in 2023–2032. We handle the paperwork and will present all rebate and financing options during your consultation.
What happens to my old HVAC unit after replacement?
We remove the old equipment at no extra charge. Refrigerant is reclaimed per EPA Section 608 standards, metals are separated and taken to a certified recycler, and any remaining components are disposed of responsibly. You’ll receive documentation showing that the unit was recycled in compliance with federal and Tennessee environmental regulations.
How much does a full HVAC replacement cost and do you offer financing?
Prices vary with system type, efficiency rating, and home size, but most replacements in the Tullahoma area range from $6,500 to $12,000, including equipment, labor, and a 10-year parts warranty. We partner with local credit unions and national lenders to provide low-interest plans, 0% promotional financing for up to 18 months, and TVA On-Bill Financing that lets you pay through your electric bill. We give a firm, written quote before any work begins so there are no surprises.
