Common Questions
Charlotte HVAC FAQ
Answers to common HVAC questions from Charlotte homeowners
How quickly can you get to my Charlotte home?
We typically reach Charlotte homes within 30-60 minutes, depending on traffic and your specific neighborhood. South Charlotte, Matthews-adjacent areas, and Ballantyne often see faster response times due to proximity to our Indian Trail headquarters.
Do you service high-rise condos in Uptown Charlotte?
Yes! We service HVAC systems in Uptown high-rises, including mini-splits and central systems. For PTAC units, we offer replacement services. Our technicians are experienced with the unique access and equipment requirements of condo buildings.
What HVAC issues are most common in Charlotte's older homes?
Historic Charlotte homes in Dilworth, Myers Park, and Plaza Midwood often have outdated ductwork, undersized systems, and aging equipment. We specialize in upgrading these systems while preserving the character of older homes.
Is a heat pump a good choice for Charlotte's climate?
Absolutely! Charlotte's mild winters make heat pumps extremely efficient here. Most Charlotte homeowners save 20-40% on heating costs compared to traditional furnaces. We recommend heat pumps for most Charlotte homes.
Do you offer emergency HVAC service in Charlotte?
Yes! We provide same-day emergency service throughout Charlotte during business hours. We prioritize emergency calls and work to get you comfortable as quickly as possible.
What's the average cost for HVAC repair in Charlotte?
Common AC repairs in Charlotte typically range from $150-$400 for parts like capacitors and contactors. Major repairs like compressor replacement can run $1,500-$2,500. Our $89 diagnostic fee is waived if you proceed with the repair.
How often should Charlotte homeowners service their HVAC system?
We recommend twice-yearly maintenance—once in spring before AC season and once in fall before heating season. Charlotte's high humidity and pollen levels mean your system works harder than most, making regular maintenance even more important.
What size HVAC system do Charlotte homes typically need?
Most Charlotte homes need 2.5 to 4 tons of cooling capacity. A 2,000 sq ft home typically needs a 3-ton system, but factors like ceiling height, insulation, and window exposure affect sizing. We provide free load calculations with replacement quotes.
Why are my Charlotte energy bills so high in summer?
Charlotte's humidity makes your AC work overtime—it's not just cooling air, it's removing moisture. Common causes of high bills include dirty filters, low refrigerant, aging equipment, and poor insulation. A tune-up often improves efficiency 10-20%.
Do you offer financing for HVAC replacement in Charlotte?
Yes! We offer 0% financing for 18 months with approved credit, plus longer-term options with low monthly payments. Most Charlotte homeowners qualify, and we handle the paperwork on-site.
