FAQs
What are the main benefits of upgrading to a latest-technology HVAC unit in Harrison?
New high-efficiency systems can cut heating and cooling energy use by 20–40 %, lower monthly utility bills, and provide more consistent indoor comfort. Advanced inverter compressors, smart thermostats, variable-speed blowers, and improved filtration also reduce noise, extend equipment life, and improve indoor air quality—important for Harrison’s humid summers and cold winters.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take from start to finish?
Most residential replacements in Harrison are completed in one day. A standard timeline is: 1) pre-installation inspection and load calculation (1–2 hours, usually a separate visit), 2) removal of the old furnace/air conditioner (2–3 hours), 3) setting the new indoor and outdoor units, connecting line sets, electrical, and drain lines (3–4 hours), and 4) system start-up, calibration, and homeowner training (1 hour). Complex duct modifications or indoor air-quality add-ons may extend the job to two days.
What efficiency ratings should I look for when choosing a new unit?
For Harrison’s mixed climate, experts recommend at least 16 SEER2 for air conditioners or heat pumps and 96 AFUE for gas furnaces. If you opt for an all-electric heat pump, consider 17–18 SEER2 cooling efficiency with an HSPF2 (heating) of 7.5 or higher. Higher ratings cost more up front but usually pay back in 4–6 years through energy savings.
Are there local incentives or rebates available for HVAC replacements in Harrison?
Yes. Duke Energy and Cooperative Electric customers may qualify for $250–$650 in rebates when installing ENERGY STAR-certified heat pumps or high-efficiency gas furnaces. The Indiana HVAC Tax Credit (federal Inflation Reduction Act section 25C) can offset up to 30 % of equipment and labor costs, capped at $2,000 for heat pumps and $600 for furnaces. Harrison County residents should also check for seasonal manufacturer rebates that can add another $300–$1,200 in savings.
Will my existing ductwork need to be replaced?
Not necessarily. If your ducts are properly sized, well-sealed, and in good condition, they can be reused. However, our technicians perform a duct leakage test and static-pressure reading during the estimate. If air loss exceeds 15 %, we’ll recommend sealing or replacing problem sections to ensure your new high-efficiency equipment delivers its full rated performance.
How do I maintain my new HVAC system to protect my investment?
Change or clean filters every 30–90 days, keep outdoor units clear of debris, and schedule professional maintenance each spring (cooling tune-up) and fall (heating tune-up). A maintenance plan typically includes coil cleaning, refrigerant check, electrical testing, and thermostat calibration—preventing up to 80 % of unexpected breakdowns and preserving manufacturer warranties.
