The time has come when you have to get a new air conditioner. Nobody looks forward to this day, and nobody enjoys budgeting for it, but alas, ‘tis part of Memphis homeownership. So where do you begin?
First, realize that the cost of a new air conditioning system varies based on many factors. The first is your lifestyle and the other residents in your home. Are there health ailments that will require a specific type of air cleaning equipment? Do the people living in the home have any problems with the cold or heat, or an affliction (such as Multiple Sclerosis) that would demand that the home stay at a specific temperature or humidity level? What hobbies take place in the house? These factors will help direct you to which air conditioning system is right for your.
The following thing to examine is your actual home. What is the number of windows within your home and where do they face? What type of insulation is installed in the house and what is the efficiency level of the ductwork? Does the residence require (or do you prefer) gas, electric, solar-power, etc? At Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, we will come out and analyze your current set-up to go over the choices available based on your home’s construction and unique features.
The third thing to think about is which business to choose. Though one business may have the air conditioner you want at a cost you like, be careful and find out if they are licensed and bonded, and confirm they are insured in case something happens at your house. If a contractor were to become injured and the contractor was not insured, it’s likely you would be liable. At Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, not only are we licensed, bonded, and insured, but all of our team go through a detailed background check, drug test, and are trained to work on all major brands of air conditioners. We also have a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee so you can be confident in the work we provide.
