FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my HVAC unit instead of repairing it?
In South Pittsburg’s hot, humid summers and chilly winters, your HVAC system works hard year-round. It may be time for replacement if the unit is 10–15 years old, needs frequent or costly repairs, struggles to reach set temperatures, or causes a sharp rise in utility bills. A licensed technician can perform a load calculation and cost-benefit analysis; when repair costs exceed 40–50 % of the price of a new, high-efficiency unit, replacement is usually the smarter investment.
What types of HVAC systems do you install, and how do I choose the right one for my home?
We install high-efficiency central air conditioners, heat pumps, gas and dual-fuel furnaces, and ductless mini-split systems. Selection depends on your home’s square footage, insulation quality, existing ductwork, and fuel availability. For example, heat pumps are popular in the Tennessee Valley because they provide efficient heating and cooling with electricity, while dual-fuel systems add a gas furnace for extra cold snaps. Our comfort advisor will perform a Manual J load calculation and present SEER2/HSPF ratings and upfront versus lifetime operating costs so you can make an informed decision.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement and installation take?
Most residential replacements in South Pittsburg can be completed in one day. The process includes removing the old equipment, setting the new indoor and outdoor units, updating refrigerant lines, wiring the thermostat, pressure-testing and evacuating the refrigerant circuit, and commissioning the system. Extensive duct modifications or indoor air-quality add-ons may extend the job to two days. We schedule arrival windows, keep your property protected with floor covers and drop cloths, and haul away all debris before we leave.
Will a new HVAC system really reduce my energy bills?
Yes. Replacing a 10-year-old 10-SEER air conditioner with a 16-SEER2 model can lower cooling costs by 35–40 %. Variable-speed compressors and ECM blower motors ramp up and down instead of running at full blast, using less electricity and keeping temperatures more consistent. If you switch from an older electric furnace to a heat pump, you could cut winter heating expenses by up to 50 %. We provide estimated annual energy savings and payback periods during your quote so you can see the long-term value.
Are financing, rebates, or tax credits available for HVAC replacement in South Pittsburg?
Absolutely. We offer 0 % APR financing for up to 18 months with approved credit and low-payment plans spread over 60–120 months. TVA’s EnergyRight rebates (currently up to $150 per ton for qualifying heat pumps) and manufacturer promotions can reduce upfront costs further. The federal Inflation Reduction Act also provides a 30 % tax credit (up to $2,000) for qualifying high-efficiency heat pumps and $600 for advanced furnaces or air conditioners. We handle the paperwork and will apply all incentives directly to your estimate.
What should I expect on installation day, and how can I prepare my home?
You’ll receive a reminder call or text the day before, and our NATE-certified crew will arrive within the scheduled window in clearly marked vehicles. Please ensure clear access to the attic, crawl space, electrical panel, and outdoor condenser. Moving fragile items and pets away from the work area is helpful. We’ll protect flooring, remove the old unit, install the new system, and perform a full startup checklist, including airflow balancing and thermostat tutorial. Before leaving, we’ll review the warranty (10-year parts, up to 12-year compressor) and maintenance options, and you’ll sign off only when you’re completely satisfied.
