Furnaces
The average American family purchases a comfort system one time in their lives. When that time comes they can be overwhelmed with information on the features and benefits of familiar and unfamiliar product brands. The goal of most HVAC salespersons is to get the consumer so wrapped up in the what(s) that they forget to ask about the who(s) and the how(s). Consumer Reports� spent years publishing that year�s best brand of HVAC equipment, but recently declared that brand plays some importance in the decision, while a Trustworthy and Qualified contractor is the most important factor. Rest assured, Confident Aire offers only the best equipment in the industry from Trane and Carrier.
When a furnace or air conditioner is tested in a laboratory it is subjected to perfect operating conditions. Unfortunately, these engineers did not install the ductwork in your home. In addition, many of the safety related devices such as flue pipes, emergency gas and electric shut-offs, and drain pipes are also as old and unreliable as the appliance itself. It is easy to see why a properly engineered and installed job will cost a little bit more up front.
It is clear as day that when a contractor cuts corners to be the lowest price the consumer pays for what they did not get time and time again in the form of repairs, emergencies, and shortened lifespan. Not to mention the higher utility bills and less comfort they are rewarded with for making a bad decision. The lack of professionalism in the residential sector of our industry is precisely why the owner of Confident Aire started this Business in 1992, to be the contractor families can trust!
The only bit of technical advice offered here is this: the ability to add accessories over the years that will relieve conditions that develop, like asthma, will be directly affected by which air circulation blower is chosen. All the hype is about gas efficiency, which is no to be overlooked, but variable speed blowers use 80% less electricity and run so soft and slow between heat / cool cycles that you will hardly feel or hear them. However, these blowers constantly clean the air and even the temperatures throughout the home. Even though these motors have been around for more than 20 years, most contractors won�t even mention them.
