What is an HVAC installation checklist requirement?

The highest quality installers follow an HVAC installation checklist requirement. An HVAC installation checklist offers a comprehensive outline of everything needed for effective HVAC installation. It should address safety issues and take local regulations into account.
This checklist also encourages installation professionals to consider factors like the condition of existing ductwork, level of insulation, number of doors and windows, and square footage. Doing so ensures HVAC installers choose HVAC systems that are the appropriate size for efficient performance.

How much does it cost for a full system?

The cost of a new HVAC system ranges from $5,000 to $12,000, according to the American Society of Home Inspectors. Factors like the size of the home, whether ductwork installation is necessary, and the type of equipment you choose can impact the cost. Standard Insulation works with programs like EmPower+, which allows us to provide significant savings on energy upgrades.

What are the main troubleshooting steps?

– Ensure the power is working by checking the circuit breaker or fuse box.
– Check the thermostat to ensure it’s getting power and set to the correct temperature.
– Reset the system according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
– Check air filters; when clogged, they can reduce efficiency and strain the system.
– Examine vents and look for any blockages and clean dust and dirt as you go.
– Turn the air conditioner off and let the system rest in case any components freeze up during heavy use.
– Call for professional help if these steps don’t work or the fix seems complicated.

How do I test my system?

Test your thermostat to make sure everything is working correctly. Compare the temperature displayed on the thermostat with the temperature measured on a thermometer not connected to the system. Any difference in temperature could indicate a problem.
Turn the air conditioning on and tape a thermometer inside a vent to measure the temperature of the air blowing out of the vent. Let it sit inside the vent for about 10 minutes before reading it. If the system is working, it should be 17 to 20 degrees lower than the thermostat setting.
Check your filter and clean or replace it if necessary. Dirty filters make HVAC systems work harder and can decrease efficiency. This can also let dust and other pollutants circulate through the system.

How do you diagnose problems?

Our experienced, NATE-certified (North American Technician Excellence) technicians use a combination of visual inspections and diagnostic testing to diagnose problems. This allows our team to assess the system and identify failing components, determine parts that need cleaning or lubrication, and check air flow and condensation drainage. Technicians complete a comprehensive checklist to get to the root of the issue and remedy problems quickly and effectively.
