FAQs
How does your transparent pricing model work for HVAC unit replacement in Manchester?
We publish a clear price matrix that shows the labor rate, the cost of each equipment tier (standard, high-efficiency, and variable-speed), and any required accessories such as thermostats or condensate pumps. Before work begins, our technician measures your home’s load requirements, selects properly sized equipment, and prints a line-item quote on site—there are no estimates or ranges. The quote you sign is the exact amount you pay, guaranteed for 30 days.
What factors can change the quoted cost of replacing an HVAC system?
The three main cost drivers are (1) equipment size and efficiency rating, (2) any code-required upgrades—like electrical breakers or refrigerant line sets—and (3) installation complexity, for example limited attic access or the need for custom sheet-metal plenums. Our transparent pricing table lists each of these items separately, so you can see exactly how each choice affects the total.
Are there any hidden fees or unexpected add-ons I should worry about?
No. All potential charges—permit fees, crane rental for rooftop units, disposal of the old equipment, and commissioning tests—are disclosed up front. If a surprise condition is discovered (e.g., asbestos duct insulation), we pause the job, document the issue with photos, and present a fixed-price change order that you must approve before we proceed.
How quickly can you replace my HVAC unit once I approve the quote?
For most residential systems stocked in our Manchester warehouse, we can schedule replacement within 48 hours. Specialty or high-efficiency models may take 3–5 business days to arrive. The actual installation usually takes one full day; large homes or dual-system change-outs can require two days. We provide a firm installation date before you sign the contract.
Do you offer financing or payment plans for HVAC replacements?
Yes. We partner with several lenders who offer 0% APR for 12- to 18-month promotional periods and long-term plans up to 120 months with low fixed rates. You can complete the secure credit application on your phone, and approvals typically arrive in under two minutes. We also accept all major credit cards and offer a 3% discount for payments made by bank transfer.
What energy rebates or incentives are available for Manchester homeowners replacing HVAC equipment?
Customers in Greater Manchester can currently claim up to £5,000 through the UK Boiler Upgrade Scheme when switching from a gas boiler to an eligible air-source heat pump. In addition, several manufacturers provide instant rebates (ranging £250–£600) on high-efficiency inverter systems, and local utility E.ON offers £50 per SEER point above 16 SEER for qualifying AC replacements. Our office files all rebate paperwork on your behalf and deducts the incentive amount directly from your quoted price so you never have to wait for a cheque.
