FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my existing HVAC system rather than repair it?
Most systems warrant replacement when they’re 10–15 years old, require frequent or costly repairs, can’t maintain consistent temperatures, or have SEER ratings below today’s efficiency standards. Our technicians perform a detailed load calculation, energy-use analysis, and component inspection to confirm whether a new, high-efficiency unit will save you more in utilities and repairs than keeping the old system running.
What cutting-edge features come with the latest HVAC units you install in Norris?
Our premium replacements can include variable-speed inverter compressors, communicating air handlers, adaptive smart thermostats, ECM blower motors, and integrated IAQ (indoor air quality) modules such as UV-C lights and MERV-13 filtration. These technologies deliver quieter operation, energy savings up to 50 %, precise humidity control, and app-based monitoring from anywhere.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take and will I be without heating or cooling during the process?
Most residential change-outs in Norris are completed in one day. We remove the old equipment, set the new condenser and air handler/furnace, reconnect refrigerant lines, wire smart controls, and commission the system. Your home may be without heating or cooling for 4–8 hours, but we schedule around weather conditions and offer portable heaters or spot coolers if extreme temperatures are forecast.
What incentives or rebates are available locally for high-efficiency HVAC upgrades?
Homeowners in Norris can benefit from federal tax credits of up to $2,000 on Energy Star-certified heat pumps, TVA’s EnergyRight rebates (typically $150–$300), and occasional manufacturer cashback promotions. Our office will file the rebate paperwork for you and supply AHRI certificates to ensure you receive every eligible incentive.
How much will a state-of-the-art HVAC replacement cost and what financing options do you offer?
Installed costs in the Norris area generally range from $7,500 for a 14.3 SEER2 single-stage system to $14,000+ for a dual-fuel, variable-speed heat pump with zoning. We partner with multiple lenders to provide 0 % APR plans for 12–18 months or low monthly payments spread over 5–10 years, often offsetting the financing charge with your monthly energy savings.
What kind of warranty and ongoing maintenance should I expect with a new unit?
Our flagship systems carry 10-year parts and compressor warranties plus a lifetime heat exchanger guarantee on gas furnaces. We include a complementary one-year labor warranty and two precision tune-ups. Beyond that, our Comfort Club provides biannual maintenance, priority service, and 15 % repair discounts, ensuring peak performance and preserving manufacturer coverage for the full warranty term.
