After purchasing an older home, it may be necessary to find and hire an HVAC contractor near Lubbock. Older homes tend to be incredibly well-built. In fact, some of the materials that they used 50 to100 years ago are far more durable than materials people use today. However, when it comes to the mechanical systems within the home, they are severely lacking. This is especially true when it comes to the HVAC units.
As such, many older homes have inconsistent temperatures from room to room. It also costs more to heat/cool an older house in general and tends to be inefficient. As a contractor, we can help by replacing and upgrading the systems to make them more modern.
You need a professional
Replacing an HVAC unit is not a job for the weekend warrior. Replacing a home’s HVAC system is complicated and takes time. It requires the assistance of an HVAC contractor near Lubbock who is licensed, insured and experienced. More than likely, we will need to open up the walls. Thus, it is necessary to hire a team that has the capability to not only replace the HVAC unit but who can also take care of the repairs. In some cases, we may work with a general contractor who can do so.
Otherwise, the home could be in worse condition once the repair or replacement job is complete. This is something that does not happen on our watch because our team is incredibly meticulous in how we replace HVAC units.
Consider the options
Modern technology has led to significant improvements in heating and cooling. It is possible to have better control over the home’s temperature while being more energy-efficient; thereby reducing the monthly cost associated with keeping a home at a consistent temperature. We can offer a variety of options when meeting with homeowners to discuss what is available.
By having those conversations ahead of time, it is possible to plan ahead, purchase the correct supplies and to do so at an affordable cost. Making changes midway through the project can lead to cost overrun so it is wise to plan and to be prepared.
It may be possible to keep some of the existing unit
Our experience as an HVAC contractor near Lubbock allows us to identify if the entire system needs to be replaced or if only portions of it should be upgraded. For example, some of the existing ductwork may be sufficient and can remain in place, though portions will need to be removed and replaced and the main heating and cooling unit will need to be upgraded.
It really depends on the condition of the units we find in each individual home. However, we can make recommendations that include options for replacing the entire thing or repairs and upgrades instead.
