What Every HVAC Upgrade & Replacement Visit Covers

Here is what you can expect when Central handles your hvac upgrade & replacement:

No matter the job, Central Heating & Cooling brings factory training, its own sheet metal shop and 35+ years in Montgomery County to your door.

Signs it is time.

The Details

Higher-than-normal bills, uneven rooms, new noises, excessive dust, or a system past 15 years old: any one of these is worth a look, two or more usually mean replacement will cost less than the next few repairs. Your comfort system is one of the larger investments in the house, and it has to work every day of the year, so this is not the place to cut corners. It is the place to get a clear estimate and a straight answer.

Good To Know

Replacement pricing varies with system size, access to the old unit, the transitional sheet metal required and the efficiency rating you choose. Rather than quote a range that could be wildly off, we come out, measure, and put a real number in writing. Because our sheet metal shop is in-house, transitions and plenums are fabricated to fit, which keeps installs tight and quotes honest. Related: new installation, financing, extended warranties.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. On a 100° holiday weekend our air conditioner quit. We called Central Heating & Cooling, Montgomery City MO, and they answered, took our name & said they would get to us as soon as they could.  That was at 10am on a Sunday morning. At 3:00pm that day Ben B showed up and within 45 minutes we had cool air again!  He was FANTASTIC!!  He knew what he was doing, did it efficiently and was also very nice and friendly.  I don't want my unit to break again but I would certainly like to work with the Company &  Ben B again!!!

He spent a considerable amount of time thoroughly checking and cleaning my AC system, and his attention to detail was greatly appreciated. Professional, knowledgeable, and committed to making sure everything was running properly. Highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dominic did a thorough and professional job in diagnosing and repairing our AC. He even went into the crawl space under the house to make sure no mice had chewed through the wiring.  He was very methodical in his approach in diagnosing our problem. He checked out the entire system to make sure we were ready for the summer. We certainly will use Central again should the need arise.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The PVC tubing for the pressure release valve on my hot water heater snapped off. The Central repairman came very quickly and replaced the tubing. Then I remembered the worn out flapper in the toilet tank and he replaced that as well. Very professional and pleasant to work with. Highly recommend.

HVAC Upgrade & Replacement: Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I should replace instead of repair?

Age over 15 years, repeat repairs, rising bills or uneven temperatures. We will price the repair and the replacement side by side.

Will a new system lower my bills?

Usually. Modern Carrier equipment is far more efficient than units from the early 2000s, and correctly sized ductwork matters as much as the unit.

Do you take away the old equipment?

Yes. Removal and disposal are part of the job.

How much does a replacement cost?

It depends on size, access, sheet metal work and efficiency. We give free written estimates rather than guess.
