Choosing a HVAC Contractor
Once you have narrowed the list of available central air conditioning installation contractors down to a just handful that you like the most, the final decision of which professional to choose can be a significant challenge to overcome. Assuming that you have already checked for valid licensing, insurance and certification for each contractor, it is now time to accept bids.
Try to avoid any contractors that offer to give you a bid over the phone. You will need all contractors to come to inspect your home so they can give you a formal written bid. Every house will have a different floor plan and issues that need to be addressed when installing a new central air conditioning system in the home. If a contractor gives you a cost amount without seeing what all is involved in the job, you can safely assume the lack of attention will carry over into the installation, leaving you with costly mistakes that have to be repaired.
You should get as many bids as you feel comfortable with, but at a minimum you will want three or four. You will likely notice that the bids are similar in price however it is important to note that accepting the lowest cost bid is not always best. You should compare the terms of the bid as well as the price and look for the best over-all value. One bid may use inexpensive equipment and charge more for installation than one that installs a quality system and has reasonable or low priced installation charges.
Oftentimes you may still be trying to deal with choosing between one or two good bids that meet your expectations. At this point ask for references of previous customers that have used the contractor’s services. It is best to check not only a recent reference, but also one that is from two or three years prior. The recent reference will provide you with information regarding the time of installation and professionalism of the contractor’s crew. The older references can provide valuable insight as to how the contractor handles service requests and repairs. The amount of repairs needed is a valuable piece of information, as you can use this information to help determine the quality of the workmanship the contractor provides his clients.
Once you have made a decision get all of the terms of the bid and any terms discussed during the negotiations in writing. You will want to pay particular attention to project start and end dates, who will handle getting any necessary permits, the number of days you will be without heat or air, and when payment is expected.
Choosing a contractor to install your new central air conditioning system can seem a bit overwhelming, but if you are thorough and plan well in advance of the high summer heat you will ensure you home is able to stay cool. Always read the fine print of any contracts carefully, and do your research before you sign on the line. These simple steps will help make your air conditioner installation a breeze.
