So if your considering installing or replacing a central air conditioning system, its a wise idea to inquire about Hybrid Heat. Call us today and see how much we can save you.
Pricing differences from company to companyWHY?So your in the market for a new or replacement heating or air conditioning system. You've gathered all of your information from the internet regarding the proposed equipment makes and models. By now you most likely have had your fill of waiting for contractors to come to your home. Finally, with all of your information in hand (Your ready to make that big decision.) All of the systems are pretty similar, but when comparing all of the proposals, there is a pricing difference. Why ?? Perhaps there is something that you missed? Could there really be that much of a difference in pricing from company to company? Well the answer to that question is Yes. Depending upon the contractor, the scope as well as the cost of your job may differ. Things such as : Equipment quality and manufacturer name brand, energy efficiency ratings, the type of blower motor, along with all of the related materials such as grills, flex duct, trunkline and air duct desgin can add additional costs to your proposal. You see, as humans we all look at things from a different perspective. When replacing your systems with a high efficiency model, its important to look at the complete system and not just the equipment itself. For instance, many people may not realize that the air ducting is an important part of the overall efficiency and effectiveness of your air conditioning system. If your air duct system is old, undersized, poorly insulated and leaking air, then it should be addressed by the contractor as part of, or in addition to the proposal. Ask yourself this question: Would you put a brand new engine into and old rusty broken down car? Of course not. So why replace your old equipment with a high efficiency model only to loose that efficiency through an antiquated inefficient air duct system. So many people make this mistake. You see, some contractors are only interseted in replacing the equipment and look no further than (what your asking for.) This does not make them bad contractors, they are trying to be competitive they want to sell the job right? They may not be efficiency savy and dont want to lose the job due to additional costs. But at what cost to your pocket and comfort. Be aware of what your asking for, let the contractor make suggestions and recommendations on what you need to make your home efficient and comfortable. Basic Questions that should be asked by the HVAC contractor: How comfortable was your home with the old system. Was there any air delivery issues? Did you add any addttional square footage or skylights to the home? Have you had a recent home energy audit and have you reinsulated since you've owned the home? Did replaced / upgrade your windows with high efficiency models. A full inspection of your existing air duct system is a necessary part of the estimate. If a contractor does not go into your attic to evaluate your air duct system, you should seriously consider if you really want that contractor doing your job. For over 30 years we have always based our reputaion on Quality. But more importantly, our customers comfort, energy savings and complete satisfaction. At times, we may be a little more expensive than some other companies, but we will never skimp on material or design quality to save a few dollars. Its our belief: Do It Once and Do It right. We will never comrpomise our reputation, your home, or your comfort just to sell the job. So when comparing contractors and proposals, ask questions, get all of your information together then give us a call. And always remember: Never base your decision soley on price or equipment name brand. You can buy the most advanced air conditioning or heating systems on the market, if the system is assembled imporperly or connected to a poor air delivery system, then your money was spent in vein. Let the contractor explain how the equipment and system design that they offer will benefit you not only monetarily but comfort wise as well. Let them explain their installation procedures and the quality of their materials connected to your installation. Its important to remember. (Not all air conditioning systems are created equil.) In this industry you truly do get what you pay for. Written by: Carmine Galletta
