How To Prepare For An HVAC Replacement
Since HVAC systems can last between 10 and 15 years, you'll have to replace the system in your lifetime. In fact, if this is your first time dealing with an HVAC replacement, it can seem a bit overwhelming at first. Luckily, we're going to share with you how to prepare to replace your HVAC system so that it can go without a hitch.
Estimating Replacement Costs
Before you can replace your old HVAC system, you need to consult an expert. They will recommend the best HVAC system for your home and provide you with cost estimates. Always contact a reputable HVAC pro to get an accurate quote to replace your current system.
Prepping to Replace Your Old HVAC System
To replace your old HVAC system, your chosen contractor is going to provide you with a timeframe for the job. In most cases to replace your old HVAC system, it will take a contractor a full day. To replace a more extensive system, it may take up to two full days. It's best to know what you'll be dealing with so that you can prepare your home.
When it comes time to replace your system, you'll want to prep the night before. Move any furniture, storage boxes, or other objects out of the areas where the team will be working. Anything that you can't move should have plastic coverings for protection. Your HVAC professional will need access to your attic or basement to locate your HVAC system.
Test Out Your New System
Once you replace your system, your HVAC professional will test it out. This means utilizing pressure and vacuum tests and adding refrigerant to your system. Finally, they will retest all the components of the new system to ensure that they're working. Your contractor should take the time to go over how to operate your new HVAC system. They will explain the warranty details and answer questions about your new system. It's best to let your new system run for a couple of hours to ensure that it will operate to heat or cool your home.
