There are so many benefits to installing a new HVAC system in your home. The ideal HVAC system for your home will make the entire space more comfortable and lower your energy costs. It can also make your home safer.
However, a residential HVAC installation project can be overwhelming, especially if it’s your first time. However, your experience should be smooth if you know what to do at every turn.
In this post, Triple A Air Conditioning & Heating, the premier choice for heating and air conditioning installation in Keller, TX, will discuss how you can prepare your home for hassle-free residential HVAC installation.
Clear Your Driveway
The HVAC installation crew will arrive at your home in their fully equipped van which will also contain your new air conditioner or furnace system. Therefore, you’ll need to make space in your driveway to allow them to get as close to your home as possible.
Parking in the driveway will reduce the distance they have to go to transfer equipment, pick tools, etc.
Clean the Air Ducts
Skip this part if you’re installing a new HVAC system from scratch.
However, if you’re replacing your old HVAC system, the installation company will recommend cleaning the duct system. The ducts accumulate dirt and debris following years of use. There’s no better time to clean out the space than just before you install a new heating and cooling system.
Clean ducts will mean you can get clean air from the new system. You also won’t need to start spending money on cleaning or replacing filters just weeks after the installation. So, discuss with the installers to find out if you need to clean the ducts or not.
Create Room Around the Installation Site
By now, you should know where the new air conditioner, furnace, or heat pump will go on your property. It’s crucial that you clear the area before the residential HVAC installation team arrives.
Indoors, move all furniture, personal belongings, and anything else that may inconvenience the installers.
Outdoors (where the outdoor unit will go), trim plants and vegetation and move any debris or clutter. If there’s a gate to the area, open it ahead of time.
Plan Care for Your Children and Pets
Young children are always inquisitive and will invariably come around to know what’s going on around their home on the installation day. Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep them away from home during the installation.
Similarly, it’s important to keep your pets away from the work area to keep them safe. Crate them or arrange with a sitter to keep them off the property until after the installation.
Get Your Wi-Fi Password
If you’re installing a modern HVAC system, it’s highly likely that you’ll also get a smart thermostat. These nifty devices make life easier by allowing you to program and control your home’s temperatures from a mobile phone.
Over time, the artificial intelligence built into the system can learn your usage habits and adjust the temperatures automatically, just like you would.
However, the thermostat will need to connect to your internet to work effectively. The installation crew can set it up if they don’t know your Wi-Fi password. So, find the password and keep it on hand.
Plan for Your Availability on the Day
As the property owner, you have to be present, or at least reachable, on the day of the installation, even after you’ve squared off all the relevant details with the installation crew. Unforeseen circumstances can arise, which could mean reaching out to you to discuss any changes, such as additional costs.
After installing the system, the crew will also want to share information on using your system, show you controls, discuss maintenance schedules, etc. If you won’t be available, be sure to have a competent representative on hand.
