Why did the customer contact us?

Solutions provided:

After a thorough evaluation, our team determined that the home’s existing heating and cooling system—originally installed in 2006—was no longer operating safely or efficiently due to a cracked heat exchanger. To improve comfort, efficiency, indoor air quality, and long-term reliability, we provided a complete HVAC system upgrade tailored to the homeowners’ needs.

We safely removed and disposed of the old equipment and installed a high-efficiency American Standard dual-fuel heating and cooling system, featuring a 97% efficient two-stage gas furnace and a variable-capacity air conditioner rated up to 18 SEER2. This advanced system delivers consistent temperatures, quieter operation, and reduced energy costs by adjusting output based on the home’s demand rather than constantly cycling on and off.

To address comfort issues on the second floor, we added HVAC zoning, separating the first and second floors. This allows each level of the home to be controlled independently, improving comfort during hot summer months and cold winter days.

Indoor air quality was also a priority. We installed a whole-home Aprilaire MERV 16 air filtration system to capture allergens, dust, and airborne particles, along with a fresh air ventilation system to bring in clean, filtered outdoor air for a healthier indoor environment.

The installation included custom duct transitions, upgraded filtration, new refrigerant lines, electrical and gas connections, proper drainage, and a new smart Wi-Fi thermostat—ensuring the system was installed correctly, safely, and built to last.

The homeowners now enjoy:

• 
  

  Improved whole-home comfort year-round
