FAQs
How do I know when it’s time to replace my HVAC unit instead of repairing it?
Several signs point to replacement over repair: (1) the system is 10–15 years old or older; (2) energy bills keep climbing despite regular maintenance; (3) frequent breakdowns are costing more than 30 % of the price of a new unit; (4) the equipment still uses R-22 refrigerant, which is being phased out; and (5) your home in Delano has hot or cold spots even after service. Our factory-trained technicians will perform a full load calculation and cost-benefit analysis so you can decide with clear numbers in front of you.
What brands and efficiency ratings do you offer for replacements in the Delano area?
We are authorized dealers for Carrier, Lennox, Trane, and Rheem, all of which exceed California’s latest SEER2 efficiency standards. We typically install units ranging from 15.2 SEER2 up to 22 SEER2 for high-performance models. Because our technicians receive ongoing factory training, every system we install is matched with the right coil, furnace, and thermostat for maximum efficiency and warranty compliance.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take, and will I be without heating or cooling during that time?
A straightforward replacement in an existing, accessible attic or closet usually takes 4–8 hours. If ductwork, electrical upgrades, or refrigerant line replacements are required, the job can extend to two days. We schedule installations to minimize downtime, provide portable heaters or spot coolers if needed, and complete critical steps—disconnect, swap-out, and start-up—on the same day whenever possible, so you are rarely without comfort overnight.
Are your technicians certified, and do they handle permits and inspections for Delano city code?
Yes. Every installer is factory-trained, NATE-certified, EPA licensed for refrigerant handling, and background-checked. We pull all required Kern County and City of Delano building permits, schedule inspections, and provide load calculations and AHRI matched-system documentation. This ensures your new HVAC meets Title 24 energy codes and keeps manufacturer warranties valid.
What financing, rebates, or tax credits are available for a new HVAC system?
Qualified Delano homeowners can choose 0 % APR financing for up to 18 months or low-interest plans up to 120 months through our lending partners. Manufacturer rebates change seasonally ($150–$1,200 on select high-efficiency models). In addition, the federal Inflation Reduction Act offers up to a $2,000 tax credit for heat pumps or $600 for high-efficiency air conditioners that meet specific criteria. We handle all paperwork and will apply eligible rebates as instant discounts on your invoice whenever possible.
What kind of warranty and post-installation support do you provide?
All equipment comes with a 10-year parts warranty and up to a 10-year compressor warranty when registered within 60 days of installation. We add a two-year labor warranty at no additional cost. Optional extended labor coverage up to 10 years is also available. After installation, you receive a complimentary one-year maintenance visit, 24/7 priority service, and discounted filter plans to keep your new system running efficiently in Delano’s hot summers and cool winters.
