The time has come when you have to get a new A/C system. Nobody enjoys this day, and nobody looks forward to budgeting for it, but alas, ‘tis part of Longmont homeownership. So where do you begin?
First, know that the investment of a new air conditioner varies based on many factors. The first is your routine and the other people residing in your home. Are there health conditions that will require a special type of air filtration system? Do the people living in the home have a sensitivity to the heat or cold, or an affliction (i.e., Multiple Sclerosis) that would that would result in the home needing to stay at a set temperature or humidity level? What recreation takes place in the home? All of these things will help decide which A/C system is ideal for your home.
The second thing to assess is the home itself. Do you have a lot of windows and where do they face? What level of insulation is installed in the house and how efficient is the ductwork? Does the residence require (or do you prefer) solar-power, gas, electric, etc? At Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, we will pay you a visit and assess your home to go over the choices available considering your home’s design and unique traits.
The third variable to take into consideration is which business to call. Though one business may have the system you want at a cost you like, be careful and find out if they are licensed, bonded, and confirm they are insured in the event that something occurs at your residence. If a tech were to get injured and the company was not insured, it’s probable you would be held accountable. At Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, we are not only bonded, licensed, and insured, but all of our employees go through a complete background check, drug test, and are trained to work on all major brands of air conditioners. We also provide a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee so you can be assured in the work we provide.
