FAQs
What types of heating and air-conditioning systems do you install in Cowan, and how do I know which one is right for my home?
We install high-efficiency gas furnaces, heat pumps, ducted and ductless mini-splits, packaged HVAC units, and hybrid systems that switch between gas and electric for optimal savings. During a free in-home consultation, our technician measures your square footage, evaluates insulation levels, and reviews your energy goals and budget. We then run a Manual J load calculation to size the equipment correctly for Cowan’s climate. The result is a tailored recommendation that balances comfort, efficiency, and long-term operating costs.
How long does a typical heating and cooling installation take from start to finish?
Most replacements of existing split systems take one full day—about 6–10 hours—depending on equipment location and duct condition. New ductwork, zoning dampers, or complex ventilation upgrades can extend the job to two or three days. We schedule permitting, equipment delivery, installation, testing, and cleanup in advance to minimize disruption, and you’ll have heating or cooling capability before we leave each day.
My older Cowan home has no ductwork. Do you offer ventilation and air-conditioning solutions that avoid major renovations?
Yes. We specialize in ductless mini-split heat pumps and high-velocity small-duct systems. Ductless units require only a 3-inch wall penetration for the refrigerant line set, while high-velocity systems use flexible 2-inch ducts that fit through closets and attic spaces with minimal drywall removal. Both options deliver efficient heating, cooling, and dedicated ventilation without altering historic architecture.
How will a new HVAC system improve my indoor air quality?
Modern systems include multi-stage filtration, variable-speed blowers, and the option for add-ons such as HEPA filters, UV-C lights, and whole-home dehumidifiers. These components capture dust, pollen, and VOCs while controlling humidity, a key factor in reducing mold growth. We also balance fresh-air intake with energy-recovery ventilators (ERVs) to ensure a constant supply of filtered outdoor air without sacrificing efficiency.
Are there utility rebates or tax incentives available in Cowan for high-efficiency HVAC and ventilation upgrades?
Absolutely. TVA’s EnergyRight program and local utility providers often offer rebates of $150–$600 for qualifying heat pump installations, plus up to $50 per duct sealing register. Federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act cover 30 % of project costs—up to $2,000—for heat pumps and $600 for air-sealing or ventilation equipment. We handle all paperwork, provide AHRI certificates, and ensure your system meets SEER2/HSPF2 thresholds to maximize savings.
How often should I service my new system, and will maintenance affect the warranty?
Manufacturers require professional maintenance at least once per year—ideally a heating tune-up in fall and a cooling tune-up in spring—to keep parts and labor warranties valid. Our Comfort Club plan includes biannual inspections, filter changes, coil cleaning, thermostat calibration, refrigerant pressure checks, and written reports. Regular service extends equipment life, maintains high SEER/HSPF performance, and prevents surprise breakdowns during Cowan’s hottest and coldest weeks.
