Check References

Ask the HVAC contractor for local references. Talk to the customer about work habits, costs, and the contractors level of cooperation. Find out if the contractor has maintained the work schedule and honored the terms of the contract.

Get Competitor Bids

Do not automatically accept the contractor with the lowest price first. Make sure all bids are based on the same set of service and equipment specifications. Discuss bids in detail with each contractor and make sure you understand the reasons for variations in price. A higher price may be your lowest overall cost if the material used is of higher quality and the work is more complete.
