FAQs
What is included in your Energy-Saving Maintenance Plan for Chattanooga homeowners?
Our plan provides two precision tune-ups per year—one for your air conditioning system before the cooling season and one for your furnace or heat pump before the heating season. Each visit includes a 21-point inspection, coil and blower cleaning, refrigerant level check, electrical testing, thermostat calibration, safety control verification, filter replacement, and condensate drain flushing. You’ll also receive priority scheduling, no-overtime emergency service, and a 15% discount on any necessary repairs.
How much can I expect to save on my utility bills with regular HVAC maintenance?
Well-maintained heating and cooling equipment operates 10–25% more efficiently than neglected systems. In Chattanooga’s humid subtropical climate, that typically translates to annual savings of $150–$300 on combined electric and gas bills for an average 2,000-sq-ft home. Additional savings come from extending equipment life and preventing costly breakdowns during peak-season use.
Why is biannual maintenance necessary in the Chattanooga area?
Our region experiences hot, muggy summers and occasionally icy winters, which place high demands on HVAC equipment year-round. Spring pollen can clog coils, while fall leaves and moisture can cause rust and debris buildup. Scheduling maintenance in spring and fall ensures your system is optimized for the extreme temperatures ahead and helps you avoid mid-season failures when technicians are busiest.
Will a maintenance plan help keep my manufacturer warranty valid?
Yes. Most major HVAC manufacturers—Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, etc.—require proof of professional maintenance at least once per year to honor parts warranties. Our Energy-Saving Maintenance Plan documents every inspection and tune-up, giving you written verification that your system has been serviced according to manufacturer specifications.
Do you offer any local rebates or incentives for enrolling?
EPB Energy and TVA periodically offer rebates for efficiency improvements and documented maintenance. When these programs are active, we complete the paperwork and submit inspection reports on your behalf so you can receive credits directly on your power bill or a one-time rebate check. Ask our office for current availability when you enroll.
What does the plan cost, and are there flexible payment options?
The standard plan starts at $18 per month or $199 annually for a single HVAC system. Additional systems can be added for $14 per month each. You can pay monthly via auto-draft or save 10% by paying the full year in advance. Seniors, active-duty military, and first responders receive an extra 5% discount. There are no hidden fees, and you can cancel at any time with 30-day notice.
