The time has come when you have to purchase a new air conditioner. Nobody enjoys this day, and nobody enjoys budgeting for it, but alas, ‘tis part of Mobile homeownership. So where do you begin?
First, understand that the price of a new AC fluctuates based on multiple factors. The first is your living situation and the other people residing in your home. Are there health conditions that will necessitate a specific type of air filtration equipment? Do the residents in the home have any problems with warmth or coolness, or a condition (such as Multiple Sclerosis) that would require the home to stay at a specific temperature or humidity level? What activities take place in the home? These factors will help direct you to which air conditioner is best for your home.
The second variable to take into consideration is your actual home. What is the number of windows within your home and which way do they face? How much insulation is presently in the home and what level of efficiency is the ductwork? Does the home require (or do you prefer) electric, solar-power, gas, etc? At Climate Control Service Experts, we will go out and evaluate your house to provide the choices available depending on your home’s structure and unique traits.
The other variable to think about is which company to choose. Though one contractor may have the air conditioner you want at a price point you like, be thorough and find out if they are licensed and bonded, and confirm they are insured just in case something occurs at your residence. If a technician were to get hurt and the contractor was not insured, it’s likely you would be held responsible. At Climate Control Service Experts, we are not only bonded, licensed, and insured, but all of our workers go through a thorough background check, drug test, and are skilled to work on all major brands of air conditioning systems. We also offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee so you can be confident in the work we deliver.
