:jester:Hello,
I am the Momma of the house. While Dad is at work, I am the house manager, and stay at home mom to two. I end up making a lot of decisions on repairs because I am at home to call, and do the phone work, estimates, and appointments.
Our heat just went out, yep during this artic blast. Luckily, we have a gas fireplace to manage. We have been depending on electric central air and heat. Now I am trying to get all the best information I need to replace our unit. From my research I am understanding that installation is the key as much as price, quality and of course, service after the install.
I have 5 estimates, some are so low, that I know that there is already a red flag that the person is not capable of such a job.
So I will continue to research, some are pushing Goodman while another is pushing Carrier. I will have to replace the duct work, that is from one HVAC person who really sold me on air quality which has not been great from our old system. I think I have narrowed my decision to two contractors now but still have unanswered questions. Electric, hybrid system, or Gas. I live in the TVA area so electricity is the less expensive route, but I have been advised on all three, any suggestions or advice?
