FAQs
How do I know if my HVAC unit needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
Several warning signs point to replacement: (1) the system is 10–15+ years old; (2) frequent or increasingly costly repairs; (3) spikes in monthly utility bills despite unchanged usage; (4) uneven temperatures or humidity problems in different rooms; and (5) obsolete refrigerant such as R-22, which is no longer produced. During a free in-home assessment, our Norris technicians measure system performance, evaluate repair costs versus long-term savings, and help you decide if replacement is the more economical path.
What size HVAC system do I need for my home in Norris?
Proper sizing depends on more than square footage. We perform a Manual J load calculation that factors in home size, insulation levels, window orientation, air leakage, and even local climate data for Norris. An undersized unit will struggle to keep you comfortable; an oversized unit will short-cycle, wasting energy and wearing out components. After the load calculation, we recommend the correct tonnage (cooling) and BTU capacity (heating) to deliver balanced, efficient comfort.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take from removal to startup?
For most single-family homes in Norris, a straight swap of an existing furnace and air conditioner or heat pump takes 1 full day: roughly 2–3 hours to disconnect and remove the old equipment, 3–4 hours to set the new indoor and outdoor units, run refrigerant lines, and connect electrical, and 1–2 hours for evacuation, charging, system startup, and commissioning. Complex jobs—such as new ductwork, zoning, or air quality add-ons—can extend the project to 2–3 days. We provide a precise timeline before work begins so you can plan accordingly.
Will a new HVAC unit lower my energy bills, and what efficiency ratings should I look for?
Yes. Modern HVAC systems are up to 40 % more efficient than units installed a decade ago. For air conditioners and heat pumps, look for a SEER2 rating of at least 15 in Tennessee; for furnaces, seek an AFUE of 95 % or higher. Variable-speed compressors and ECM blower motors further trim operating costs. After installation, many customers in Norris report savings of $25–$60 per month, depending on home size and current utility rates.
What kind of warranties and maintenance plans do you offer with a new installation?
All equipment we install comes with a 10-year manufacturer parts warranty and a 1-year labor warranty, which we extend to 5 years when you enroll in our Precision Comfort Club. The club includes two seasonal tune-ups, priority scheduling, 15 % off future repairs, and automatic warranty-compliant documentation, ensuring your new system stays in peak condition and that you never miss a required maintenance visit.
Are there rebates, tax credits, or financing options available for HVAC replacements in Norris?
Absolutely. High-efficiency heat pumps and furnaces qualify for federal tax credits of up to $2,000 under the Inflation Reduction Act. Local utilities such as TVA’s EnergyRight program often provide additional rebates ($150–$500) for ENERGY STAR®-rated equipment. We also partner with financing providers to offer 0 % interest for 12 months or low-APR plans up to 120 months, subject to credit approval. Our office handles all rebate paperwork and can pre-qualify you for financing during your consultation.
