How to Choose an HVAC Contractor

According to Energystar.gov, there are 10 critical things to remember when choosing a heating and cooling contractor: 

1. Study Up- before you call a contractor, it is helpful for you to have the model number of your current HVAC system and any maintenance that has already been performed. Having a general idea of what issues you want resolved is essential for the contractor to know what work needs to be done. 

2. Ask for referrals- ask your friends, neighbors, and co-workers for referrals, especially if they have a similar system or layout. 

3. Call references- Ask your contractor for references or check the web for user reviews. Take special note of whether jobs were completed on time and within budget. 

4. Find special offers- HVAC systems are a necessary but significant investment. Keeping your eyes open for rebates and discounts can help lower your initial costs. Check out energystar.gov or our specials page for current specials. 

5. Look for ENERGY STAR- ENERGY STAR products meet the strict specifications set in place by the EPA to promote energy efficiency and reduce long-term utility costs. All American Standard products are ENERGY STAR rated.

6. Expect a home evaluation- your contractor should take the time to evaluate your current HVAC system and make recommendations based on your space and budget. Remember that bigger isn’t always better; several new systems are smaller and can be more efficient, depending on your current layout.

7. Get a written, itemized estimate- when comparing multiple contractors, it is critical to look not just at the bottom line but also at warranties and efficiency ratings. A longer warranty and higher energy efficiency rating may result in a higher initial cost but significantly lower costs for years.

8. Get it in ink- signing a written proposal will ensure you receive the work requested and help protect you from surprise costs when it is completed. 

9. Pass it on- tell family and friends about your experience. Leave a review on Facebook or Google and let others know that Service First Heating & Air did great and where we can improve.
