Benefits of Upgrading Your HVAC System

There's no disputing that having an HVAC system in your home is an essential part of modern-day life. A great quality air conditioner can actually last for more than 20 years. Most of the time, a homeowner keeps their HVAC device until it stops working and only replaces it then.

At Best Owner Direct HVAC, we're asking you to take a minute and think about what keeping and fixing your old AC unit is costing you. Chances are, it's costing you way more than your monthly electrical costs.


CAN WE DISCUSS YOUR ENERGY BILL?

Modern HVAC devices are marvels of efficiency. Part of that is due to regulations in the 70s and 80s that required far better power effectiveness in technological devices. Air conditioners come in many makes and models, and they continue to advance over time.

If you're using an older air conditioning device, you're probably not coming close to experiencing the modern effectiveness newer HVAC devices have to offer. While you're worrying about the price of a new air conditioning system, the lack of efficiency is causing energy costs that are higher than what they should be in this day and age.


OLDER MODELS REQUIRE MORE EXPENSIVE REPAIR WORK

That's right: older air conditioning devices need even more costly repair work which amounts to a large sum of money. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that the older your HVAC system is, the more likely it's going to need some repair. By the time the repair specialists fix your HVAC, you've accumulated costs equivalent to, if not more than, upgrading to a modern HVAC device.


Getting a brand-new HVAC system is like buying a brand-new car. You're confident it's in excellent condition, so you don't stress too much about repairs at first. Brand-new technological devices usually come with a manufacturing service warranty in case something does go wrong within a certain period.


YOUR HEALTH IS IMPORTANT

Older air conditioning systems can cause unwanted illnesses. When the air in your home isn't being filtered properly and is getting contaminated from your worn-out HVAC machine, you and your family members might get health scares such as respiratory infections, severe allergic reactions, and colds.


The more your health suffers, the more health care costs you're going to have to pay, and healthcare isn't cheap. New HVAC units have better filtering technology that keeps you healthy and away from the doctor's office.

HOW MUCH WILL YOU SAVE WITH A BRAND-NEW SYSTEM?

Besides the cost of maintaining a new device, you can save a lot of cash on power expenses. Our New HVAC Unit Financial Savings Calculator is made to help you figure out how much you could be saving by purchasing a brand-new unit.


Best Owner Direct HVAC wants you to understand that your current air conditioner might be costing you way more than you think. An older air HVAC system can increase your energy costs, dig deeper into your pocket for repair service costs, and can also be a health hazard. Replacing an old system with a brand-new one (with an advanced purification system) can put money back in your pocket.

    Been using them for years after the owner Kevin showed up so fast when our furnace went out one year. Been a fan since! Now, Danny is so great to work with, also. So friendly, knowledgable, fast. You guys are the best!

    Danny came out on a Saturday to diagnosis and fix my mom’s hvac unit.   He was able to quickly determine what the problem was and had all the parts to complete the repair right then.  His communication was clear and did a really good job helping us understand what caused the issue.  I would definitely recommend him and will be calling his company with any needs in the future. Thanks again!

    Fantastic customer service! I had a furnace issue, called late morning and they fit me in for diagnostic right away. Technician was extremely knowledgable, walked me thru everything he found - unfortunately needed a new furnace (was 24 years old anyways), got it scheduled and installed within 24 hours as everything was in the warehouse (probably got lucky on what we needed). Overall excellent customer service, from scheduling to diagnostic, to installation. Highly recommend.

    WOW! So impressed with so many aspects of this company. We had an animal die under the house in and could smell it coming out of the vents. When I called around, pest control was weeks out and Best Owner Direct was able to come the next day. Our technician, Danny was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Very professional, kind and made sure we had the problem taken care of the same day so we could breathe again! I look forward to continuing to work with them in the future for our HVAC needs.

    Daniel was excellent, attentive to detail and committed to completing all tasks other installers overlooked. He worked tirelessly into the evening making sure everything was working properly with a water heather install, and he had a great attitude all along.

    Excellent customer service, great communications answering all of our questions, left the site clean, and very respectful of our space within the house. Arranged to have someone come from the office later in the week to explain how the thermostat works.
