FAQs
What certifications do your HVAC technicians hold?
All of our Ducktown heating and air conditioning technicians are EPA-certified for refrigerant handling and have completed NATE (North American Technician Excellence) testing in core HVAC competencies. In addition, they undergo manufacturer-specific training on leading brands such as Trane, Carrier, Lennox, and Rheem. These credentials ensure that every repair, installation, or maintenance service is performed to current industry and safety standards.
Do you provide 24/7 emergency heating and cooling service in Ducktown?
Yes. Because unexpected breakdowns rarely wait for business hours, we maintain a live, local dispatch line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A certified technician is always on call and can typically arrive anywhere in Ducktown or the surrounding Copper Basin area within 60–90 minutes. Our fully stocked service vehicles carry the most common replacement parts so many emergencies can be resolved in a single visit, even in the middle of the night or on holidays.
How often should I schedule HVAC maintenance, and what does it include?
For most residential systems we recommend maintenance twice a year—once in the spring for your air conditioner and once in the fall for your furnace or heat pump. During each visit our technician will: • Inspect electrical connections and tighten if necessary • Test safety controls • Clean or replace filters • Check refrigerant charge and look for leaks • Lubricate moving parts • Calibrate thermostat settings • Clean condenser and evaporator coils • Verify airflow and static pressure. Routine tune-ups improve efficiency, extend equipment life, maintain your manufacturer warranty, and help prevent costly breakdowns.
Can your certified technicians service all HVAC brands and models?
Absolutely. Our team is trained on virtually every major HVAC brand, including Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, Bryant, York, and Mitsubishi mini-splits. We also stay current on emerging technologies such as variable-speed compressors, communicating thermostats, and smart-home integrations. Whether your system is ten months old or ten years old, gas, electric, or dual-fuel, we have the expertise and diagnostic equipment to repair or maintain it properly.
What steps do you take to protect my home during a service visit?
We treat every Ducktown home as if it were our own. Technicians wear shoe covers, use drop cloths, and wipe down any surfaces they contact. Before beginning work we explain the scope of the job and secure your approval. All tools are sanitized between visits, and any old parts or debris are removed from the premises for environmentally responsible disposal. When the job is finished, we test the system in your presence, review what was done, and leave the workspace cleaner than we found it.
How can your HVAC experts help me lower my energy bills?
Our technicians start with a full system efficiency evaluation that includes ductwork inspection, airflow measurement, and thermostat calibration. We can then recommend targeted upgrades such as high-efficiency filters, programmable or smart thermostats, duct sealing, or replacing aging equipment with ENERGY STAR®-rated models. Proper sizing and installation alone can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 30%. We’ll also inform you of any local Ducktown utility rebates or federal tax credits that may apply, maximizing your return on investment.
