The Problem with the “what brand of HVAC system should I buy?” Question
Whether it is regarding ductless mini split systems, mobile home furnaces, heat pumps or air conditioners, when customers call us for HVAC recommendations, most want an easy answer to the question “what brand of HVAC system should I buy”? It makes sense that we would get this question, right? A new furnace and air conditioner, or a ductless mini split system is a big investment. In addition, it’s not something people buy often, so not many people are familiar with the product s or the process.
Most cases though, aren't that straight forward and what it comes down to in some cases is that the name on the equipment is not insignificant, and the industry’s leading manufacturers are always improving their equipment’s quality and features. But there’s no way to overstate the importance of the skill, craftsmanship, and thoroughness with which the equipment is sold and installed. The best piece of equipment ever built, if improperly sized and shoddily installed, will not provide the performance that it’s capable of, nor will it deliver the comfort and peace of mind our customers are seeking.
Instead, we stress the importance to him or her how important running a load calculation is, and how his ductwork should be examined to ensure the system has both proper return and supply air. But, as often happens when someone would like a simple answer and start getting a long-winded one, it starts to become confusing and we here at Younits.com understand that.
It’s another reason why our customer satisfaction is so high. We don’t just spout off name brands (of which we carry many of them!), or give you dry statistics - we do our best to ensure that your space has been sized properly, your contractor chosen correctly so that by the time the equipment leaves our warehouse we both can sleep easy knowing that you and your home will be comfortable.
