How to Find the Right HVAC Contractor for You
Choosing the right HVAC contractor can be difficult. Besides the fact that there are hundreds of companies to choose from, the Internet has made things even more challenging with the large number of review sites available to consumers. Which review site accurately portrays the company? Do you skip business review websites all together and take a referral from a friend? The whole process can be overwhelming. We’re here to help. Here’s how to find the right HVAC contractor for you.
Be Prepared
Before you start calling companies for quotes, take a step back. Check out the make and model of your system. Gather up any information you have on your system so you’ll be able to have information ready when you start calling contractors. It’s always good to know if your system is still under warranty. This will help the contractor understand your needs. The more prepared you can be before you make any phone calls the better. It will save you a lot of time.
Ask for Referrals
The Internet is full of information, but sometimes it can be too much information. Instead of spending hours on your computer, ask your friends, neighbors and co-workers for referrals. You’re friends and family will give you their honest opinions about what their experience was like.
Look for Special Offers
HVAC systems are not cheap. They are one of the most expensive purchases you will make when you become a homeowner. To allow you to pay for your system over time, we offer special financing options with approved credit. Contact us for details.
Get a Written Estimate
This sounds obvious, but sometimes this can be a forgotten step in the process to finding the right contractor. Make sure you ask for a written estimate to keep on file to compare to other contractors you have spoken with.
Make Sure You Understand the Contract
Reading through multi-page contracts is daunting, but it’s important that you understand all aspects of the agreement with your contractor before they start working. Make sure you do your homework and ask a lot of questions. No question is too silly. If it’s important to you, ask!
