When selecting a company
to install, service or maintain your home heating and cooling system,
or to provide indoor air quality solutions, look for:
» A company that is
licensed (as required by state law) and insured, and that applies and
pays for all required permits to do the work on your premises.
» A company that backs
up its installation recommendations with supporting data. This would include
a free, comprehensive, on-site evaluation of your heating and cooling
systems, with an assessment of your duct work, electrical, chimney, venting,
gas or oil service and heat loss calculations. A thorough assessment by
a trained expert will guarantee that you get the right size and model
for your home and that you get no surprises when it comes time to pay
the bill.
» A company that offers
both installation and service. Many heating and cooling companies handle
new installations only – which means finding another company that
may be unfamiliar with your systems for maintenance.
» A company that offers
preferred service (such as preferential A/C service when the hot days
of summer arrive) with cost-effective annual maintenance contracts.
» Last, but not least,
a company that has been in business for many years and has trained, licensed,
experienced technicians and staff.
