How to Choose an HVAC Contractor

Choosing the right HVAC contractor can make a huge difference in how much money you spend on repairs to your system. Finding a licensed contractor who specializes in home repairs should not only be insured, they need to have all the certifications required that comply with HVAC protocol. Here are some simple steps you can take to be sure you have the right professional in your home making any repairs to the HVAC system.

Getting Referrals
If you want a professional HVAC contractor in your home then your first order of business is asking your family, friends, and coworkers for referrals. Inquire as to what problems they addressed and how quickly they were able to make the repair. Find out if they charged what they quoted, and find out if they use the contractor on a regular basis with no concerns.

Checking Paperwork
Anytime you have someone inside your home it is extremely important that you check all of their credentials first. A professional HVAC contractor will have a license and all the proper certifications that are currently required by your city and state. This information should be available on their website or you can inquire with them to provide that information to you. The contractor should have valid insurance as well in case any of the workers are injured or you home is damaged while working on your system.

Contacting the BBB
Your local BBB should have information on any contractor that you are considering. Be sure there are no complaints that concern you. A low number of complaints based on the years they have been in business is acceptable, read the feedback to get a better understanding of the concerns. The feedback you get at the BB website can help you narrow down your search of eligible HVAC contractors.

Getting an Estimate
Most reputable HVAC contractors will provide you a complete inspection of your system before they provide you with an estimate on the work needed for a repair. Make certain your contractor is willing to first inspect for leaks, check the air flow, and ensure all the components of your system are in line with manufacturer guidelines and specifications.

Taking time to research your HVAC contractor before signing any papers will help you to choose the right professional for the job.
