If you’re thinking about replacing your HVAC system or ductwork replacement, it’s your
first time, and you’re not sure what to expect. We’ve compiled all of the useful information
you’ll require, from working with an HVAC contractor and installer to preparing your
home before the HVAC replacement project begins.
You must obtain up to four HVAC replacement installation cost estimates from reputable
HVAC contractors or companies before beginning the replacement. Experts recommend
Upgrading attic or crawl space insulation, resealing windows and doors, or repairing gaps
in exterior walls where conditioned air could escape.
Locate An HVAC Contractor
Make a list of licensed, insured, and bonded HVAC contractors in your area, and then
schedule a visit with each. Allow each of them to take measurements and inspect your
existing system.
Insist on a copy of the most recent HVAC license and insurance policy. You need the
license number to follow up to ensure the license is active and their insurance is up-to-
date.
Ensure that the HVAC estimate is dated and signed and that it covers all aspects of an
HVAC replacement, including but not limited to:
1. Job start and completion dates.
2. Replacement of HVAC system.
3. Each task’s price list
4. Cost of additional materials.
5. Tariff for cleanup.
6. The cost of removing an old HVAC unit.
7. Understand warranty and insurance policy.
Replacement Of The Complete HVAC System
Experts recommend that when replacing one component of the system, whether it be the
HVAC compressor or the air handler, both systems be updated and, at the very least, the
ductwork be inspected in case it needs to be replaced. Although only one component of
your system may require replacement, experts recommend that you replace the entire
system to ensure maximum system efficiency. Replacing the entire HVAC system will cost
more upfront, but you will save money
