FAQs
What does it mean to have NATE-certified technicians replace my HVAC unit?
NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification is the industry’s most widely recognized credential for HVAC professionals. When our Bean Station team dispatches a NATE-certified technician, you’re getting a specialist who has passed rigorous, proctored exams on heating, cooling, and refrigeration. This ensures that your new system is sized, installed, and commissioned according to the latest safety codes, manufacturer specifications, and energy-efficiency guidelines—reducing the likelihood of future breakdowns and maximizing comfort and utility savings.
How can I tell it’s time to replace my heating and air conditioning system instead of repairing it?
Consider replacement if your unit is 10–15 years old, needs frequent or expensive repairs, has a SEER rating below today’s minimum standards, or causes uneven temperatures and high energy bills. A rule of thumb is the “$5,000 rule”: multiply the age of the unit by the cost of the repair; if the total exceeds $5,000, replacement is usually more economical. Our technicians perform a free load calculation and cost-benefit analysis so you can make an informed decision.
Which HVAC brands and system types do you install in Bean Station, and what warranties are included?
We are authorized dealers for Carrier, Trane, Rheem, and Daikin and offer conventional split systems, heat pumps, packaged units, and high-efficiency ductless mini-splits. Most equipment comes with a 10-year parts limited warranty and optional labor coverage when registered within 60 days. Because we’re NATE-certified and factory-trained, manufacturer warranties remain fully intact, and we add our own one-year labor guarantee for extra peace of mind.
How long will my HVAC replacement take, and will I be without heating or cooling during the process?
A standard like-for-like replacement usually takes 4–8 hours. Complex jobs—such as duct modifications, zoning upgrades, or converter kits for gas/electric hybrids—may extend to 1–2 days. We schedule installations during moderate weather when possible, stage all materials beforehand, and provide portable heaters or temporary cooling upon request so your comfort is minimally disrupted.
Are there energy-efficiency incentives or financing options available for Bean Station homeowners?
Yes. TVA’s EnergyRight program and certain local utilities offer rebates for installing ENERGY STAR certified heat pumps and high-efficiency air conditioners. Federal tax credits of up to 30% (capped at $2,000 for heat pumps) may also apply under the Inflation Reduction Act. We partner with lending institutions for 0% promotional APR and low, fixed-rate financing, often with same-day approvals. Our comfort advisors handle all paperwork so you don’t leave money on the table.
What post-installation support and maintenance services do you provide?
After installation, we perform a full system start-up checklist, register your equipment for warranty, and teach you how to use the thermostat and change filters. You’ll receive a free one-year membership in our Comfort Care Plan, which includes bi-annual tune-ups, priority scheduling, and 15% off future repairs. Ongoing maintenance keeps the warranty valid, optimizes efficiency, and extends the life of your new HVAC system.
