Residential HVAC Consulting
Shopping for heating and air conditioning replacement systems can be confusing and stressful. Most times you are shopping for estimates under pressure because your existing equipment broke down at the most inopportune time; outside it’s either hot or steamy, or it’s frigidly cold.
Definitely not your best time for evaluating the different contractors, the equipment brand they are selling, the efficiencies they are offering, and the ancillary products they are recommending.
Peace of Mind
I know this better than most; I’ve spent 35+ years in the industry, and have spent a good portion of that time selling directly to the building owners and home owners.
As a contractor I was one of the usual 3 to 5 estimates most people get, I was always working to explain why my product, design, installers, company, and pricing was in the best interest of the owner.
What I thought would be immensely helpful to the people in need of these services, was to be an advocate for them. Someone who knew the industry inside & out; someone who was able to cut through all the jargon and fluff; someone without allegiance to any particular contractor or specific brand; someone working directly for the clients.
