If your entire HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system needs to be replaced, or if you recently bought a home that does not have one, you may be curious to know the price of installing this type of system. While window air conditioners, fans, and space heaters are temporary solutions to get by, they do not compare to the level of comfortability that a new HVAC system can provide.
Sometimes, if there is an issue with your current HVAC system, a technician can repair it. However, if your system is old and outdated or your home does not have one, our HVAC specialists at Ambient Edge are here to help you decide the type of system you need and ensure that the costs do not exceed your budget.
The Price of Installing an HVAC System
If you have a broken HVAC system, our HVAC experts at Ambient Edge will inspect your current system, determine the problem, and do our best to fix it. Our goal is to always try to fix your current system before suggesting a new one. However, if your system is old, cannot be fixed, or you do not have one, we have no choice but to recommend installing a brand-new HVAC system.
Installing an HVAC system can range from $4,000 to $12,000. However, several factors go into the price we will look at before giving you an accurate estimate. Some of these factors include:
- The size and square footage of your home
- The layout or design of your home
- The current ductwork
- The type of system you need
- The complexity of the project
Most HVAC systems last 10 to 15 years, depending on how well they are maintained. With proper cleaning and lubricating, we have seen some HVAC systems last up to two decades. While you may think this is an expensive investment, the truth is that HVAC systems are vital to your home. If your current system is broken or barely working, your energy bills are likely higher than they should be, and your home is probably warm and humid in the summer and cold in the winter. This can create an uncomfortable and unhealthy environment for you, your family, and your guests.
Installing an HVAC system may seem pricey, but they are essential to your living space.
What Is an HVAC System, and How Does it Work?
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) describes an HVAC system as providing comfortable indoor temperatures and good air quality. Therefore, if you are looking for a system that will cool you down in the blistering summer months or warm you up in the crisp winter months, an HVAC system may answer your needs.
The HVAC system works by bringing in air, heating or cooling that air, and blowing it out into an indoor environment. These systems are used in homes, schools, businesses, airports, hospitals, etc. They consist of a cooling unit, a heating unit, and a duct to circulate the air.
In addition, HVAC systems come with air purifiers, which can remove dirt, dust, viruses, bacteria, and other particles from the air. This will significantly improve air quality while keeping your home pleasant and comfortable.
What Factors Go into Choosing HVAC Systems?
Choosing a proper HVAC system is one of the most important decisions for your home. However, this does not mean it is an easy and stress-free decision. There are many different factors you must consider when deciding.
Here are a few of the factors that play a role in selecting the perfect HVAC system:
- Your home’s heating and cooling needs
- Ensuring that the system meets specific standards, regulations, and codes
- How much energy you would like to save and use
- Natural ventilation availability
- Air quality and quantity (indoor and outdoor)
- The complexity of the installation process
- Prices
What if I Just Need HVAC Maintenance Instead of a Replacement?
Ambient Edge technicians will evaluate your current HVAC system to determine if you need maintenance instead of a replacement. Our team offers routine HVAC maintenance to ensure your system runs smoothly and efficiently for as long as possible.
While you may think that your HVAC maintenance can wait, you may spend more in the long run than if you go ahead and pay for maintenance now. This is because maintenance prevents any major emergency problems from occurring and ensures that your home remains comfortable all year.
You can sign up for a service contract, which costs between $150 to $500 annually and covers your air conditioning unit and furnace. This is a good deal as one service call typically costs our clients around $50 to $150 per hour without a service contract.
