When I was looking for an HVAC system for my new home, one of the first questions the HVAC contractor asked was, what kind of budget did I have.
I had just bought a home that needed a new HVAC system.
Did they really think I was worried about a budget, when I was hoping the HVAC system was efficient and would last at least 15 to 20 years. I was nice when I told him, but money isn’t everything when looking for an efficient HVAC system. I had read about efficiency ratings, and I wanted the best. He wanted to know if I wanted traditional HVAC or if I wanted something else. I asked if they could install ductless HVAC into my home. I knew it would be more efficient, and I had heating and air conditioning. He explained how ductless HVAC systems worked and told me they required less maintenance, and they ran quietly. They used less energy than a traditional HVAC system, and they also gave better heating and air conditioning because each room would have its own unit. I had read about this, but there is never enough information online. I wanted to hear it from the HVAC contractor. He explained how the need for new ductwork would be eliminated. They could get rid of the visible ductwork and cap off what was in the floor and close the holes. I liked the idea of ductless HVAC even more after talking to the HVAC contractor. He said the installation could be done in one day, when I was ready for the work to be done.
