FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my HVAC unit instead of repairing it?
The most common indicators are age (10–15 years for heat pumps and air conditioners, 15–20 years for furnaces), frequent or costly breakdowns, rising utility bills caused by declining efficiency, uneven temperatures from room to room, and the use of outdated refrigerants such as R-22. If two or more of these signs apply, replacement is usually more cost-effective than continued repairs.
What is involved in a professional HVAC replacement by your Turtletown team?
Our process begins with a free in-home assessment, during which we measure your home’s heating and cooling loads, examine existing ductwork, and discuss comfort concerns. Next, we provide multiple system options and transparent pricing. On installation day, we safely remove your old equipment, set the new unit on an insulated pad or hanging platform, connect electrical and refrigerant lines, pressure-test and evacuate the system, charge it with the proper refrigerant amount, and run a full performance test. We finish by registering the warranty and explaining routine maintenance steps.
How long does an HVAC replacement usually take?
A straight replacement of an existing split system typically takes 4–8 hours, assuming the ductwork and electrical service are in good condition. If your project includes significant duct modifications, new line sets, or electrical upgrades, the job may extend to 1–2 days. We’ll provide a precise timeline before work begins so you know exactly what to expect.
What factors affect the cost of a new HVAC system in Turtletown?
Price is driven by the system’s capacity (measured in BTUs or tons), efficiency rating (SEER2/HSPF/AFUE), brand and model tier, indoor air-quality add-ons (humidifiers, UV lights, advanced filtration), ductwork repairs, and any electrical or structural changes needed. On average, homeowners in Turtletown spend between $6,500 and $12,000 for a full replacement, but high-efficiency or dual-fuel systems can cost more. We offer written estimates so you can compare options confidently.
How do I choose the right size and efficiency for my new HVAC unit?
Bigger is not always better. We perform Manual J load calculations that consider square footage, insulation levels, window orientation, and local climate data to calculate the exact capacity required. Oversized equipment short-cycles and wastes energy, while undersized units struggle to keep up. After sizing, we discuss efficiency targets that balance upfront cost with lifetime energy savings. For most Turtletown homes, SEER2 ratings of 15–18 (heat pumps) and AFUE ratings of 95–98% (gas furnaces) deliver the best return on investment.
Do you offer financing or incentives to help cover replacement costs?
Yes. We partner with national lenders to provide 0% APR promotional financing for up to 18 months or low-interest plans up to 120 months, subject to credit approval. In addition, eligible ENERGY STAR certified systems may qualify for federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act, local utility rebates, and manufacturer cashback promotions. Our team will handle the paperwork and ensure you receive every available incentive.
