FAQs
What financing options do you offer for HVAC unit replacement in Lake City?
We partner with several national and local lenders to provide a range of flexible plans, including 0%-interest promotions for 6–18 months, low-APR loans with terms up to 120 months, and deferred-payment plans that let you skip payments during the first summer or winter after installation. All plans are unsecured (no home equity required) and specifically designed for HVAC equipment so you can choose the monthly payment that best matches your budget.
Who is eligible to apply for HVAC financing and what credit score is required?
Most Lake City homeowners qualify. Our lending partners accept applications from customers with credit scores as low as 580, and we have special programs for first-time buyers and customers rebuilding credit. You must be at least 18, have a valid government ID, and show proof of income (pay stubs, tax return, or benefits letter). Co-applicants can be added to strengthen your application and potentially lower your interest rate.
How do I apply for financing and how long does approval take?
The application is quick and entirely digital. During your in-home estimate, our comfort consultant will help you submit a secure online form that takes about five minutes. Most applicants receive an instant decision; complex applications typically finalize within 24 hours. Once approved, we can schedule your HVAC replacement immediately—no need to wait for paperwork to arrive in the mail.
Can I finance both the equipment and the installation costs?
Yes. Your financing line covers the complete project: the new furnace or air conditioner, any ductwork modifications, accessories such as smart thermostats or air purifiers, labor, permits, and removal of the old unit. Financing the full amount lets you upgrade to higher-efficiency equipment without a large upfront cash outlay.
Are there penalties or fees if I pay off my HVAC loan early?
None of our standard financing plans carry prepayment penalties. You can make extra payments or pay the balance in full at any time to save on interest without incurring fees. If you take advantage of a 0% deferred-interest promotion, simply pay the full balance within the promotional period to avoid all interest charges.
How will financing my new HVAC system affect my monthly energy bills?
Replacing an older unit with today’s high-efficiency equipment can cut heating and cooling costs by 20–40%. Many Lake City customers find that their energy savings cover a significant portion of the new monthly payment—sometimes the savings exceed the payment altogether. During your estimate, we will provide a personalized cost-of-ownership report so you can see how the loan payment compares to projected utility savings.
