Is it time to install a new HVAC system? Today’s systems are more efficient and help homeowners manage energy costs better thanks to smart technology. Before the installers arrive, here are some tips to adequately prepare for HVAC installation in Charleston, SC.
Ensure That Young Children and Pets are Taken Care
Here at Smoak’s Comfort Control, safety is one of our biggest priorities. For the safety of you, young children, your pets, and our technicians, we encourage you to keep them in a safe area away from area. If you have tenants, we encourage you to inform them of the details of the installation process. If the installation is taking place at a commercial property, make sure to inform your employees about the installation schedule as well.
Remove Obstacles
Most HVAC systems are in garages or utility closets. Units in these spaces usually store other household items. Remove obstacles and clutter to make room for the installers to do their jobs. Not only does removing obstacles make the installation go easier, but it can help prevent accidents and property damage.
Double-check the System Before It’s Installed
HVAC contractors should go over the system details before installation. If this doesn’t happen, make sure the system being installed is what was ordered. Sometimes mix-ups happen and people end up with an HVAC system they didn’t order. Taking the extra time to confirm the system being installed matches what’s on the invoice saves a lot of time and frustration.
Plan for Installers Being at the Home All Day
HVAC installation in Charleston, SC, isn’t a quick job. These installs take anywhere from 4-8 hours. Make sure a decision-making adult is available at the home all day. To learn more about preparing for installation day, contact Smoak’s Comfort Control online at https://www.smoakscomfort.com.
