Why Choose us for your Fort Wayne Heating and Cooling company

If you want to make sure you have the right heating and cooling company in the Fort Wayne, Indiana area to do the work for you then you should do your homework. Below are some things we suggest if you are unsure about who you are hiring.

• Call your local Better Business Bureau and other community reference sources, such as Angie’s List, for a company history of complaints and resolutions to make sure the dealer is reputable.

• Know and understand the contract: Make sure that it’s all in black and white. There is no detail too small to be included in your written proposal. It is very important to understand all aspects of the agreement with your contractor before any work begins.

• Call the company’s client references: Current customers are the best source of information and are usually willing to share their experience. Take time to call them. You won’t know unless you ask.

• Check Fort Wayne licenses and Insurance: Ask to see state and local licenses, bonding, and insurance coverage.

• Get a detailed written proposal: A detailed written proposal should be presented to you. If it is not, insist upon it. There is no reason that a reputable contractor would refuse to put it on paper.

• Heat loss-heat gain calculation: Expect a thorough calculation performed with an on-site evaluation. A good contractor should measure your home, check insulation factors and evaluate your overall comfort needs.

• Equipment/labor warranties and guarantees: Warranties and guarantees vary according to manufacturer and dealer. That’s right. Many dealers offer additional warranties and guarantees. These should also be included in your written proposal.

• Your 3-Day Right to Cancel: A new comfort system is a major household investment. According to Fort Wayne Indiana law, all home improvement contracts include a 3-day right to cancel.

• Maintenance requirements of your new system: A maintenance agreement is one of the best ways to ensure your system’s performance, reliability and safety. Does your contractor include your first maintenance as a part of your proposal? If so, they value you as a client. Also, ask what maintenance you should perform on your own, such as changing the furnace filter.

• Get more than one estimate or reference: It’s always wise to get a few estimates and compare. Be sure to compare more than just price when evaluating estimates. Consider quality, technical skill, dependability for maintenance, warranty support and overall company stability.
