FAQs
How do I know if I need to replace my HVAC unit instead of repairing it?
Several warning signs point to replacement: the system is 10–15 years old, utility bills keep climbing, frequent or expensive repairs are required, uneven temperatures persist, or the unit still uses R-22 refrigerant. Our certified technicians perform a full inspection, calculate the remaining life expectancy, and provide a cost-benefit analysis so you can decide whether putting money into repairs or investing in a new, higher-efficiency system makes better financial sense.
What is the average cost to replace an HVAC system in Ocoee?
In the Ocoee area, a complete HVAC replacement generally ranges from $6,500 to $12,000. The final price depends on the home’s square footage, ductwork condition, efficiency rating (SEER2), and any indoor air-quality add-ons you choose. We provide a written, line-item estimate up front and offer financing options with approved credit to help spread the investment over manageable monthly payments.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take from start to finish?
Most residential change-outs are completed in a single day. We arrive between 8–9 a.m., safely recover refrigerant, remove the old equipment, set the new condenser and air handler/furnace, reconnect electrical and refrigerant lines, pressure-test, evacuate, charge, and perform a full system start-up by late afternoon. Larger homes, zoning upgrades, or duct revisions can extend the project to two days. We always schedule city inspections and obtain Orange County permits for you.
Will a new HVAC unit lower my energy bills?
Yes. Modern heat pumps and air conditioners carry SEER2 ratings of 14.3–20+, making them up to 40% more efficient than units installed a decade ago. Variable-speed compressors, ECM blower motors, and smart thermostats further trim consumption by matching output to your exact cooling or heating demand. Our customers in Ocoee typically report 20–30% lower electric bills after replacement.
What size HVAC system do I need for my home?
Proper sizing is critical. We complete a Manual J load calculation that factors square footage, insulation levels, window orientation, infiltration rates, and local climate data. This engineering approach, required by the Florida Building Code, prevents oversizing (which causes short cycling and humidity issues) or undersizing (which leaves you uncomfortable). The result is a right-sized system—often 2–5 tons for most Ocoee homes—balanced for peak summer heat and mild winter nights.
What warranties or guarantees come with a new HVAC installation from Certified Techs?
Standard manufacturer warranties provide 10-year coverage on compressors and parts when the equipment is registered. We complement that with a 1-year labor warranty, free first-year maintenance visit, and a 100% satisfaction guarantee—if any workmanship issue arises within the first year, we correct it at no charge. Extended labor protection plans up to 10 years are also available for added peace of mind.
