If you are handy or know someone who is handy, it might be tempting to have them install your HVAC system in your Ocala, Florida, home. With an investment as big as your HVAC system, you need an authorized contractor to make sure it’s done correctly.
The Importance of Sizing
The size of your HVAC system is important for your comfort, your utility bills, and the life of your unit. Without a professional, it’s you or your handyman’s best guess what size HVAC system you need. If your system is the wrong size, it won’t properly heat or cool your home. If it’s too small, it will have to work in overdrive, and your energy bills will spike. Your HVAC system will also run down faster decreasing its life.
Invalidating Your Warranty
Your HVAC system is a big investment, and your warranty is a crucial part of making sure you don’t incur extra costs. Many HVAC warranties are invalid if the system isn’t installed by an authorized dealer. Even if your friend or handyman fits your system perfectly, if something goes wrong down the road, you might not be covered. It’s not worth saving a few extra dollars now and risking the big costs of replacing a system early without the warranty covering it.
Installing Ductwork
Your HVAC system is much more than just the furnace or the air conditioner you see. It’s made up of complicated ductwork, the thermostat, and other various components that work together to keep your home warm or cool. The ductwork is of particular importance because if you have any leaks, you’ll waste valuable energy. You also risk having an uncomfortable house with spotty heating and cooling. A trained professional will use quality materials and make sure it’s installed correctly.
