When you make the decision to have a new AC system installed in your home, it can be exciting. However, there are a few things you should probably ask them when they arrive at your home. Ideally, you can even ask these questions beforehand to be prepared for your appointment.
Warranty Coverage
Probably one of the most important questions you want to ask your AC contractor is how long the warranty will be for your new system. All new air conditioning systems will come with a manufacturer’s warranty that will help cover the cost of replacing faulty parts and some labor when you have failures. Make sure that you verify with your HVAC technician what you must do to keep your warranty active. In most cases, you’ll need to have professional HVAC service every year.
Tax Rebates
Another thing that you’ll want to question your HVAC technician about is tax incentives. Many times, when you invest in an energy-efficient cooling system for your home, you can take advantage of tax rebates offered by the federal government. In some cases, these rebates are even offered on a state or local level.
Existing System Condition
While you have your HVAC technician installing your new air conditioning system, it can be helpful to ask them about your existing system components. Have them evaluate the state of your ductwork to see if it needs to be cleaned or sealed. Have them double-check your thermostat and suggest any upgrades that could help make your system more efficient and convenient for you.
Air Filter Size
An important part of regular maintenance for your new air conditioning system is changing out its filter. You should ask your HVAC technician what size air filter your system will use. This way, you can stock up on additional air filters for your cooling system.
