FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my HVAC unit rather than repair it?
A replacement is usually recommended when the system is 10–15 years old, requires frequent or costly repairs, struggles to maintain comfortable temperatures, or causes noticeably higher utility bills. In Wartburg’s mixed-humid climate, an aging unit often loses efficiency faster because it must handle both hot, muggy summers and chilly winters. If the repair estimate approaches 30–40 % of the cost of a new system and the equipment is past half of its expected service life, a replacement will generally save money in the long run.
What size HVAC system do I need for my Wartburg home?
Proper sizing is determined through a Manual J load calculation, which factors in square footage, insulation levels, window type, air infiltration, orientation, and local climate data for Wartburg. A system that’s too large will short-cycle and waste energy; one that’s too small will run constantly and fail to keep you comfortable. During your free in-home consultation, our comfort advisor measures and inputs all data into industry software to recommend the correct tonnage and air-flow capacity, ensuring optimal efficiency and humidity control.
How much does a full HVAC replacement cost in Wartburg?
Pricing varies with system size, efficiency rating (SEER2/HSPF), ductwork modifications, indoor air-quality add-ons, and installation complexity. In Wartburg, a typical 3-ton heat-pump replacement ranges from $7,500–$11,000, while a high-efficiency dual-fuel or variable-speed system could be $12,000–$16,000. We provide itemized, no-surprise quotes and offer financing plans with low monthly payments so you can choose the best option for your budget.
How long does HVAC replacement take and what should I expect on installation day?
Most residential change-outs are completed in one day. Our certified technicians start by protecting floors and furnishings, recover and dispose of old refrigerant responsibly, remove the existing air handler and condenser, and set new equipment in place. They update electrical, line-sets, and drain lines as needed, pressure-test and vacuum the refrigerant circuit, charge the system to factory specs, and run a full performance test. Before leaving, we show you how to operate the new thermostat and register warranties. All debris is hauled away, leaving your home clean.
Are there energy-efficient options that qualify for rebates or tax credits in Tennessee?
Yes. ENERGY STAR® certified heat pumps and furnaces with a SEER2 ≥16 or AFUE ≥95 may qualify for utility rebates from TVA-EnergyRight, usually $250–$500 per system. The federal Inflation Reduction Act also offers a 30 % tax credit (up to $2,000) for qualifying heat pumps installed through 2032. We file the rebate paperwork on your behalf and supply the IRS form 5695 details so you can maximize savings.
What warranties and maintenance are included with a new HVAC installation?
All systems we install come with a 10-year manufacturer parts warranty and up to a 10-year labor warranty when you enroll in our maintenance plan. The plan includes two seasonal tune-ups, priority service, 15 % repair discounts, and annual filter replacements. Regular maintenance keeps your warranty intact, boosts efficiency, and can extend the service life of your new HVAC unit well beyond the standard 15-year expectancy.
