It’s official; you have to purchase a new air conditioning system. Nobody looks forward to this day, and nobody enjoys budgeting for it, but alas, ‘tis part of Elkhart homeownership. So where on earth should you begin?
First, know that the investment of a new air conditioner differs based on several factors. The first is your lifestyle and the other people residing in your home. Are there health issues that will involve a special type of air cleaning equipment? Do the residents in the home have any problems with the heat or cold, or an affliction (like Multiple Sclerosis) that would that would result in the home needing to stay at a set temperature or humidity level? What hobbies take place inside the home? These factors will help decide which air conditioner is right for your home.
The following thing to take into consideration is your actual home. What is the number of windows within your home and which direction do they face? What type of insulation is presently in the house and how efficient is the ductwork? Does the residence require (or do you prefer) solar-power, gas, electric, etc? At BW/Cook Service Experts, we will come out and analyze your current set-up to provide the choices available based on your home’s design and unique features.
The additional factor to consider is which business to choose. Though one company may have the air conditioner you want at a budget you like, make sure you find out if they are licensed, bonded, and confirm they are insured just in case something should happen at your home. If a tech were to become injured and the business was not insured, it’s likely you would be liable. At BW/Cook Service Experts, not only are we licensed, bonded, and insured, but all of our workers go through a thorough background check, drug test, and are qualified to work on all top brands of air conditioning systems. We also offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee so you can be confident in the work we provide.
