Looking for a New Contractor? Bartlett Heating and Air Has Tips For You

Are you looking for a new HVAC contractor? With so many HVAC contractors out there, it can be a hard choice to make when choosing the right one. It’s not always about who has the cheapest price! There are a few things to look for in order to make the best choice. You want to choose a company who has NATE certified technicians. NATE is North American Technician Excellence. They are tested on their knowledge and certified to do HVAC work.This will ensure that you have someone installing your equipment right the first time. You want to make sure that they come out to your home to give you a full estimate when you need new work done. The only way to give a true estimate is to see what working conditions there are because every home is different. If a contractor wont come out and insists on only giving you prices over the phone, unless that’s what you were asking for, you should not go with such a contractor. You can end up with extra costs at the end because they run into something they didn’t expect when they gave you the original price. A good contractor calculates heating and cooling loads based on your home. A good contractor will tell you what you need based on your home and sell you the correct sized furnace and air conditioner to meet your needs, not just try to push the most expensive and largest one. Having an air conditioner and furnace that is too small or too large is more costly to you in both the beginning and the long run so reputable businesses will watch out for your best needs, not theirs. A technician who is knowledgeable may ask you questions others have not. They will be honest and might even tell you things you don’t want to hear but it is better for you that they are upfront and not just sell you empty promises. They will also gladly answer your questions. Be wary of anyone who just tells you what you want to hear and lacks answers to your questions. Check out the companies website. Does it look professional and have more than just one page to it? Watch out for companies without websites and with poorly built websites. Its always good to choose a business that is Better Business Bureau rated. Is the contractor willing to work around your schedule and be flexible with you? Most places now offer emergency support should you need it. Are they licensed bonded and insured? They should meet all state requirements to operate a business. What is their reputation like? Check online and with the BBB to see how they are rated, higher the rating the better. These are all the things to look into when choosing a contractor.
