FAQs
What types of air-conditioning systems do you install for Blountville homeowners?
Consistent Comfort Heating & Air Conditioning designs and installs a full range of cooling systems to match the varied needs of Blountville residences, including high-efficiency central air conditioners, heat pumps, ductless mini-split systems for homes without existing ductwork, and all-in-one packaged rooftop or ground units commonly used in manufactured housing. Every installation begins with a Manual-J load calculation to ensure the equipment is sized correctly for your square footage, insulation level, and orientation to the sun. We source ENERGY STAR®-rated equipment from leading brands such as Trane, Rheem, and Mitsubishi, and we back the installation with factory-authorized warranties and our own one-year labor guarantee.
How often should I schedule maintenance for my AC system in Blountville’s climate?
We recommend a professional tune-up once a year—ideally in early spring—because Blountville’s warm, humid summers put extended run-time on your compressor and blower motor. During a maintenance visit, our certified technician will clean the indoor and outdoor coils, flush the condensate drain, verify correct refrigerant levels, tighten electrical connections, lubricate moving parts, and calibrate your thermostat. Routine maintenance keeps your unit running at peak efficiency, prevents midsummer breakdowns, maintains manufacturer warranties, and can extend equipment life by 3–5 years.
Can you help me reduce my electric bill by making my air conditioner more energy-efficient?
Absolutely. After a system inspection we can recommend high-impact upgrades such as sealing and insulating ductwork, adding a smart programmable thermostat, or retrofitting a variable-speed blower motor. If your existing unit is 10 years or older, replacing it with a modern 16-to-20-SEER system can cut cooling costs up to 40%. We also perform home energy audits that pinpoint heat gain through windows, doors, and attic spaces. Our team will inform you about TVA EnergyRight incentives and current federal tax credits that can offset the cost of efficiency improvements.
What are the warning signs that my air conditioner needs repair or replacement?
Call us if you notice warm air coming from the vents, poor airflow, rising humidity levels indoors, strange noises (grinding, squealing, or banging), frequent on-and-off cycling, an unexplained spike in your utility bill, or refrigerant odors around the outdoor unit. Most central AC systems last 10–15 years in Blountville’s climate; if your unit is approaching that age and has had multiple costly repairs, replacement may be the more economical choice. We offer free second opinions and will provide a transparent cost-benefit comparison so you can decide with confidence.
Do you provide 24/7 emergency air-conditioning repair service in Blountville?
Yes. Consistent Comfort has technicians on call around the clock, including weekends and holidays. Our dispatchers route the nearest fully stocked service van to your door, usually within two hours anywhere in Blountville or greater Sullivan County. Emergency diagnostics use flat-rate pricing, and maintenance-plan members pay no after-hours fee. We carry most common replacement parts on the truck so we can complete 90% of repairs in a single visit and restore cooling quickly.
How much does a new air-conditioning installation cost, and are financing options available?
A typical high-efficiency central AC replacement in Blountville ranges from $4,500 to $9,000, including equipment, labor, and necessary permits. The price varies with unit capacity (measured in tons), SEER rating, and whether any ductwork modifications are required. We provide a free, no-obligation in-home estimate and a detailed proposal so there are no surprises. Financing is available through TVA EnergyRight loans and several private lenders, with terms up to 60 months and payments starting under $100 per month for qualified homeowners. We also process applicable manufacturer rebates and federal tax credits, and we currently include a complimentary Wi-Fi thermostat with every new system installation.
