FAQs
How does your transparent pricing model work for HVAC unit replacement in Caryville?
From the moment you request a quote, we give you a written, line-item proposal that lists equipment cost, labor, permits, tax, and disposal of your old unit—nothing is hidden or lumped into vague "miscellaneous" fees. The price you see is the price you pay unless you ask for additional work. If an unexpected code or safety issue arises, we discuss the solution and cost with you before proceeding, so you stay in control of every dollar spent.
What factors influence the total cost of replacing an HVAC system?
Several variables affect the final price: (1) Home size and layout—larger or multi-story homes require bigger systems. (2) Efficiency rating—higher SEER2 or HSPF units cost more up front but save on utilities. (3) Brand/tier—premium brands or variable-speed compressors carry higher price tags. (4) Ductwork condition—repairs, sealing, or replacements add to labor and material costs. (5) Accessories—items such as smart thermostats, air purifiers, or humidity controls are optional but increase the quote. (6) Permits/local code upgrades—Caryville’s building department fees and any electrical or safety upgrades are included in our line-item pricing.
Do you offer free in-home assessments and estimates in Caryville?
Yes. A certified comfort consultant visits your home at no cost, performs a Manual J load calculation, inspects existing ductwork, and discusses comfort concerns and efficiency goals. Within the same visit you receive a printed and emailed quote with at least three system options (good, better, best) so you can choose the solution that best fits your budget and needs.
How long will my home be without heating or cooling during the replacement, and what is the typical installation timeline?
Most straight change-outs (no major duct or electrical work) are completed in a single day—typically 4–8 hours—so your downtime is minimal. If we’re relocating equipment, upgrading ducts, or adding zoning, the job can extend to two days. We schedule installs early in the morning, bring all parts on one truck, and test the system the same day to ensure you’re never without comfort overnight whenever possible.
Are financing and rebate options available for HVAC replacements?
Absolutely. We partner with Synchrony and GoodLeap to offer promotional financing such as 0% interest for 12 months or low fixed payments for up to 120 months, subject to credit approval. Applications take about five minutes online or in person, and most customers receive instant decisions. We also process TVA EnergyRight and manufacturer rebates on your behalf, applying them as instant discounts on your invoice when possible.
What warranties and guarantees come with my new HVAC system?
Every system includes a 10-year manufacturer parts warranty when we register the equipment for you, plus a 1-year labor warranty at no extra charge. For extended peace of mind, you can upgrade to our 10-year labor and maintenance plan, which covers annual tune-ups and priority service. If you’re not satisfied within the first year, our Caryville Comfort Guarantee means we’ll make it right or refund the full installation labor cost—no fine print.
