How much should an HVAC service call be?

• <div><p>Most HVAC companies charge a flat service call fee of between <b>$75 and $150</b>, which includes traveling to your home and inspecting your system to find the underlying problem. Keep in mind that these prices only include diagnostics and the actual repairs will usually be billed separately. If you’re calling for routine service, the service call will be included in your inspection and tune-up, with the total sitting around <b>$150</b>. Your prices could be a little higher if you have a very large home with multiple condensers and air handlers, as inspections and servicing take longer.</p></div>

Q: What are alternatives to a misting system?

• <div><p>An evaporator or swamp cooler is a common alternative for small spaces. These coolers blow moist air into a space to help cool it down. They are more affordable than misters and use much less water. However, coolers will not have the same cooling effect as misters, cannot help plants survive the heat, and only reach a small area.</p></div>

Q: Do NATE-certified technicians cost more?

• <div><p>NATE-certified technicians may charge slightly higher service fees compared to non-certified technicians. This is because NATE certification signifies a higher level of expertise and professionalism, often leading to more efficient and effective HVAC repairs and installations. While the upfront cost may be marginally higher, NATE-certified technicians can potentially save you money in the long run by reducing energy consumption, preventing frequent breakdowns, and extending the life span of your HVAC system. When looking for a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/hvac-companies/">local HVAC company to hire</a>, it never hurts to ask about NATE certifications. </p></div>

Q: What types of heat pumps are there?

• <div><p>There are three main types of heat pumps. An air-source heat pump system is the most common and has two parts&mdash;an indoor air handler unit and an outdoor heat pump unit. A ductless heat pump system functions similarly to an air-source heat pump system but doesn&rsquo;t need ductwork to distribute the air. A geothermal heat pump system pulls heat from the ground to help heat your home. </p></div>

Q: How often should I have my HVAC system serviced?

• <div><p>For most systems, an annual HVAC system service is more than enough. Some homeowners prefer a twice-a-year visit to ensure the system is ready for the upcoming summer and winter seasons. If you need to call an HVAC pro more often than this, it may be time to check if your system is getting old enough for a replacement. </p></div>
