Finding an HVAC company that works for you can be a little time-consuming. Every customer has different needs and every HVAC company has different strengths. However, there are some aspects important to look out for when searching for an HVAC company for your unit. To help make the process of finding a company a little easier, the pros at Freedom Air and Heat have prepared this quick and easy checklist.
1. Look at Reviews
While websites can provide information about the company’s services, they can exaggerate all the good qualities of the company. That is why reviews are an excellent indicator of how a company is actually performing and what customers really think of its services. You might be able to see some testimonials on the company website, but you can also find them on Yelp, Google Reviews, Facebook Reviews, Angie’s List, etc. If you know anyone among your circle who have used the HVAC companies’ services, make sure you ask them about their experience too.
2. Look at Employee Skills
Technician skill is another important factor to consider when looking for the best HVAC company. Consider how long the company has been in business to gauge an idea of its experience and how well-established it might be (but remember, just because it has been in business long, does not mean it is good). In addition, make sure the company states clearly what certifications its employee has – and whether all its technicians are NATE certified or not. You want to make sure technicians are NATE certified, licensed, bonded and insured with the company!
3. Ask for An Estimate
If you are able to narrow down some companies to work with, make sure you ask them for a written quote or estimate. Don’t immediately go for the lowest price as that might not always be an indicator of quality work. Make sure that for the price they are offering, whatever it is, they are providing services you want and offering a proper guarantee of their work and performance. Don’t be afraid to ask them further questions about the services they will offer for that price, so you can get a better idea of the value of their work.
4. Check for Saving Options
Every HVAC company has financing options whether they be limited time offer discounts, coupons, or a membership that offers benefits. Make sure you look on their website and call and ask them if they are offering any financing options. Additionally, check with the manufacturer for any rebates or special offers as well, just to make sure there aren’t any savings that you might be missing out on.
