FAQs
What does it mean to have NATE-certified technicians replace my HVAC unit?
NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification is the industry’s gold standard for HVAC knowledge and skill. When our NATE-certified technicians handle your replacement, you can trust that every step—from selecting the right-sized system to performing precise load calculations, electrical connections, and refrigerant charging—is done to the highest professional standards. This reduces the chance of installation errors, improves efficiency, extends equipment life, and protects your new-unit warranty.
How do I know when it’s time to replace my HVAC system in Graysville?
Most units last 10–15 years. You should consider replacement if your system: • Needs frequent or costly repairs • Runs noisily or struggles to maintain set temperatures • Causes energy bills to climb even after regular maintenance • Uses R-22 refrigerant (phased out and expensive) • Has a cracked heat exchanger or compressor failure A free in-home assessment by our NATE-certified pros can confirm whether repair or replacement is the smarter investment.
How long does an HVAC unit replacement take?
For most single-family homes in Graysville, a standard full-system replacement (furnace/air handler, outdoor condenser or heat pump, coil, thermostat, and basic ductwork modifications) is completed in one working day—about 6–8 hours. More extensive duct upgrades, zoning additions, or indoor air-quality accessories can add an extra day. We schedule inspections, permits, and disposal of your old equipment so you experience minimal downtime and no cleanup hassle.
What factors influence the cost of an HVAC replacement?
Your final investment depends on: • System type (gas furnace + AC vs. heat pump vs. dual-fuel) • Size/tonnage needed based on Manual J load calculations • Efficiency ratings (SEER2, HSPF2, AFUE) • Indoor air-quality add-ons (UV lights, media filters, humidifiers) • Electrical or ductwork upgrades required to meet current code • Smart thermostat or zoning system options Our estimates are itemized and include labor, permits, and removal of your existing unit, so you understand every line item before work begins.
Can a new HVAC unit really lower my energy bills, and by how much?
Yes. Replacing a 10-year-old 10 SEER air conditioner with a modern 16 SEER2 model can cut cooling costs by up to 40%. Switching from an 80% AFUE furnace to a 96% AFUE unit can save 15–20% on winter heating. Heat pump technology with variable-speed compressors often yields even greater year-round savings. Your actual reduction depends on home insulation, duct sealing, thermostat habits, and local utility rates, but most Graysville homeowners see payback on efficiency upgrades within 4–6 years.
