It's important to take regular care of your HVAC unit. According to Data Scope, if you have regular maintenance done on it, you can lower your risk of having to pay a lot for costly repairs by as much as 95%. You want to make sure that you hire the right people. Here are three questions we see often as an HVAC company.

1. Are There Any New Technologies Out There?

You might have owned your HVAC unit for a while, or it might have been there when you bought the place. It's good to find out whether there are newer technologies out there that can do a better job of both making you feel comfortable and saving you money on your energy bills.

2. How Efficient Will My System Be?

You want to make sure that the unit that you're getting or having repaired will be able to work at its peak. This is a good question to ask the technician from the HVAC company. If it's a repair job, they may point out that it would be better to get something new if your unit is either on the older side or if you've had several repair calls in a short amount of time.

3. How Much Will It Cost?

You want to get the most value out of your money. Would it be better to pay the cost for the repair, or would it be better to just get a new unit? If it's really hot, you might want to get it repaired so that you can avoid being extremely uncomfortable while you wait for a new unit, which you could then have installed when the weather isn't so brutal. Finding out the cost can make that much easier for you.

There are other things that you can ask, including what brands they service and whether you can use your existing air ducts if you're getting a new unit. All of this can lead to a much better experience for you. You'll be glad that you asked the questions.
