FAQs
What does upfront pricing mean for your HVAC replacement service?
Upfront pricing means you receive a firm, written quote before any work begins. The price we quote for your new heating and air conditioning system already includes equipment, labor, all standard installation materials, removal of the old unit, and sales tax. There are no hidden fees or surprise add-ons once the job is underway. If unforeseen code or safety issues arise, we discuss them with you and get your approval before doing additional work.
How do I know if I need to replace my HVAC unit or just repair it?
In general, consider replacement when your system is 10–15 years old, requires frequent repairs, or your energy bills keep climbing despite regular maintenance. We offer a free in-home assessment in Huntsville: one of our NATE-certified technicians will inspect the unit, review error codes, check refrigerant levels, and calculate the cost of future repairs versus a new system’s energy savings. You’ll then receive a clear recommendation—along with an upfront price for either option—so you can decide with confidence.
What HVAC brands and unit types do you install in the Huntsville area?
We are factory-authorized dealers for Trane, Carrier, and Rheem, but we also install Goodman, Lennox, and Mitsubishi mini-splits. Whether you need a high-efficiency heat pump, gas furnace with an A/C coil, dual-fuel system, or a ductless mini-split, we’ll size the equipment using Manual J load calculations specific to Huntsville’s humid subtropical climate. Every system we sell meets or exceeds current DOE SEER2 and AFUE standards for Alabama.
How quickly can you replace my heating and air conditioning system once I approve the quote?
For most standard split systems that are in stock, we can schedule installation within 24–48 hours of your approval. The actual replacement usually takes one full day, including removal of the old equipment, new system setup, ductwork adaptations, refrigerant charging, start-up testing, and homeowner orientation. During peak summer or winter demand, scheduling may extend to 3–5 days, but we always provide portable heaters or window A/C units if you’re left without comfort in the meantime.
Are there financing or rebate options available for new HVAC installations in Huntsville?
Yes. We partner with several regional lenders to offer 0% APR financing for up to 18 months or low-interest plans up to 120 months. Huntsville Utilities customers can also add the cost to their monthly utility bill through the EnergyRight® loan program. In addition, qualifying high-efficiency heat pumps may earn TVA rebates of $150–$400, and federal tax credits of up to $2,000 are available under the Inflation Reduction Act for systems meeting specific efficiency tiers.
What kind of warranties and post-installation support do you provide?
All equipment comes with a 10-year manufacturer parts warranty when you register the unit within 60 days of installation (we handle registration for you). We add our own 2-year labor warranty that covers workmanship, plus one year of complimentary maintenance visits. After that, you can enroll in our Comfort Club for discounted biannual tune-ups, priority service, and 15% off repairs for as long as you own your system.
