5 Tips for Hiring the Right HVAC Contractor

Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems maintain the indoor air quality and temperature of your home or business. They’re also a significant investment, so you want to make sure that they’ll last for years.

Hiring the right contractor will help ensure that you have a quality HVAC system. In this post, your HVAC maintenance experts from Dittmer Air and Heat help you find the right contractor with these helpful tips.

Do Your Research

Study the insurance and licensing requirements in your state. You should also know the model of your existing HVAC and have a list ready to go of the problematic areas in your home.

Referrals and References

Ask family members, friends and colleagues if they know a good contractor in your area, or get in touch with your local building trade association or chamber of commerce. When you’ve found a potential contractor, ask them for customer references. When you call to check on these, your questions should be about the contractor’s performance and whether they’ve accomplished the job on-budget and within the designated time frame.

Special Offers

These offers can help you save on services like HVAC repair and maintenance. Dittmer Air and Heat has special offers to make sure you get the most out of your purchase. Our team doesn’t only value your year-round comfort–we also care about saving you money.

Home Evaluation

A good contractor will spend significant time looking at your current HVAC system and around your home to identify and address all your needs. They’ll recommend a system that suits your home’s size, insulation level and windows, and will also check for air leaks and measure airflow to ensure your duct system meets with manufacturer recommendations.

Estimates

Take note of the contractor’s cost, warranties and the energy-efficiency of the products they offer. Lower-priced services don’t necessarily guarantee that you’ll save more money because your home’s energy efficiency may suffer, resulting in higher electric bills.
