FAQs
What are the most common signs that I should replace my current HVAC system?
Frequent breakdowns, rooms that never reach the set temperature, energy bills that keep rising, equipment that is 10–15 years old or uses R-22 refrigerant, and uneven humidity levels are all indicators your unit is nearing the end of its service life. An inspection by our certified technicians in Halls can confirm whether repairs or a full replacement is the most cost-effective choice.
How does a high-efficiency HVAC system reduce my monthly energy costs?
Modern furnaces and air conditioners use variable-speed motors, modulating compressors, and smarter controls to deliver only the heating or cooling you need. A unit with a SEER2 rating of 16–20 or an AFUE of 95 %+ can cut electricity or gas consumption by 30–50 % compared with systems installed a decade ago. Over the average 15-year life of the equipment, those savings typically exceed the initial upgrade cost.
What size HVAC unit is right for my home in Halls?
Proper sizing is based on a Manual J load calculation that factors in square footage, insulation levels, window types, ceiling height, and local weather data for Halls, TN. Oversized units cycle on and off too often, wasting energy and wearing out parts, while undersized units run continuously and never reach setpoint. We perform a free load calculation to recommend the correct tonnage and BTU output before any replacement.
Are there rebates or incentives available for high-efficiency HVAC upgrades in Halls?
Yes. Tennessee homeowners can often combine federal tax credits of up to $2,000 for qualifying heat pumps or $600 for high-efficiency furnaces with utility rebates from TVA’s EnergyRight program. Our team will help you identify current local incentives, prepare the paperwork, and ensure the new system meets all efficiency thresholds required for reimbursement.
How long does an HVAC replacement take and what should I expect during the installation?
Most standard replacements in Halls are completed in one day. We start with a pre-installation walkthrough, protect flooring with drop cloths, remove and properly dispose of your old equipment, set the new indoor and outdoor units, upgrade line sets or ductwork if needed, and perform a full system start-up and quality check. You’ll receive a tutorial on the new thermostat and a copy of all warranty documentation before we leave.
What maintenance is required to keep my new high-efficiency system running at peak performance?
Replace or clean air filters every 1–3 months, keep outdoor coils clear of debris, and schedule professional tune-ups each spring and fall. During a tune-up we inspect refrigerant levels, test safety controls, clean blowers and burners, and verify thermostat calibration. Routine maintenance preserves your manufacturer’s warranty, maintains high efficiency, and can extend system life to 15–20 years.
