FAQs
What makes your cutting-edge HVAC systems different from conventional units?
Our latest heating and air-conditioning solutions for Shelbyville feature inverter-driven compressors, variable-speed blowers, and smart self-diagnostics. Inverter technology lets the system ramp up or down in small increments instead of turning completely on or off, which eliminates temperature swings, lowers noise, and cuts energy use by up to 40 %. Built-in sensors constantly monitor outdoor temperature, indoor load, and refrigerant pressure, then adjust operation in real time. The equipment’s onboard computer also stores fault codes, helping technicians troubleshoot faster and keep your system running at peak efficiency.
How much energy can I expect to save by upgrading to your high-efficiency equipment?
Savings vary with home size, insulation levels, and thermostat habits, but most Shelbyville homeowners moving from a 10- to 13-SEER system to our 20+ SEER variable-speed heat pump see annual energy reductions of 30-50 % for cooling and 20-30 % for heating. If your current furnace is 80 % AFUE, replacing it with our 97 % AFUE modulating gas furnace can trim gas use by 15-20 %. Because the equipment runs longer at low capacity, it also dehumidifies better in the humid Tennessee summers, which often allows you to raise the thermostat a couple of degrees and save even more.
Are the new smart thermostats compatible with voice assistants and existing wiring in older Shelbyville homes?
Yes. Our preferred smart thermostats work with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit for hands-free control. Most models require a common (C) wire, but we carry versions with built-in power extenders or wireless C-wire adapters that solve the problem in older homes without running new cable. During the in-home assessment, our technician will check your current wiring and recommend the simplest path to compatibility. You’ll receive a quick app tutorial so you can create schedules, geofencing rules, and real-time energy reports right from your phone.
Can your technology improve indoor air quality as well as temperature comfort?
Absolutely. We offer integrated IAQ add-ons—MERV-13 media filters, UV-C germicidal lamps, and bipolar ionization—that fit directly into the new air handler or furnace cabinet. Variable-speed fans keep air circulating slowly when the system isn’t actively heating or cooling, ensuring that pollutants continue to pass through the filtration and purification stages. Shelbyville’s allergy seasons can be tough, but this multi-layer approach removes up to 97 % of airborne dust, pollen, and pathogens, while maintaining healthy humidity between 40-60 %.
How long does installation usually take, and will my daily routine be disrupted?
A standard change-out (replacing an existing furnace, coil, and outdoor unit) typically takes one full working day. If we’re adding duct modifications, indoor air-quality devices, or a zoning panel, we may need a second day. Our crew arrives at 8 a.m., lays down protective floor coverings, and uses HEPA vacuums to control dust. You’ll have heating or cooling for most of the day because we remove the old equipment only after the new outdoor unit and major duct connections are ready. Final commissioning and smart-thermostat setup happen before we leave, so you’re never without comfort overnight.
What financing, rebates, or tax incentives are available for Shelbyville residents who switch to advanced HVAC systems?
We partner with local banks to offer 0 % APR financing for up to 18 months and low-interest plans stretching to 10 years. The Tennessee Valley Authority often provides rebates of $300–$600 for high-efficiency heat pumps, and federal Inflation Reduction Act tax credits cover 30 % of equipment and installation costs, up to $2,000. Qualifying households may also access income-based point-of-sale rebates that cover even more. Our comfort consultant will prepare all rebate paperwork and supply the AHRI certificates needed for your tax return, ensuring you capture every available incentive.
