Heating & Cooling Installation FAQs

Quality Installation | Review from Lisa - Coachella Valley 

" Living in the Coachella Valley, one knows you absolutely need air conditioning. My A/C Unit was on its last leg and when Jonathan came over this past weekend, we got my new Unit quickly ordered and my dog and I got a “Staycation” at a local hotel for a couple of days. Josh and Jesus installed my new unit and now we are living the cool life back in our home. You have a customer for life! The whole team at Hydes is top-notch! I can’t recommend them enough!"

Heating Replacement & Installation near Indio CA

Deciding when to replace one of your home’s major appliances is never easy, and your HVAC system is no exception. You spent good money on your home heating system so you want to ensure you get the most out of your investment. But there’s also no point in continuing to operate a furnace that is declining in performance. So how do you know when it’s time to replace your heater unit?

When Should I Replace My AC System or Furnace?

1. How old is your system? If you take good care of your HVAC system, you can expect it to last somewhere between 15-20 years. If yours has reached that age, it may be time to consider replacing it.
2. Will you be replacing your AC system soon? - If you’re planning on replacing your air conditioner soon, you should also replace your heating system at the same time or consider a heat pump replacement.
3. Does your home stay warm? - One of the best indicators for whether or not you should install your HVAC system is your home’s comfort level. If your air conditioner or furnace is no longer able to keep your home as cool or as warm as you’d like (and it’s not due to any mechanical issues), then there’s no sense in continuing to keep it.
4. How frequently does it break down? - Think about the number of HVAC repair calls that you’ve had to make over the past few years. Instead of spending money on repairing a heating or cooling system that is reaching the end of its life, it would be better to put that money toward a brand-new unit that won’t break down. This is especially true if you must make an expensive repair on an older furnace or air conditioner.
5. What’s the efficiency rating? - HVAC systems today are more efficient than ever before. With a high-efficiency system, you can be warmer or cooler and more comfortable all while using less energy and spending less money on your power bills.

The purpose of this is to ensure that your system will perform to its maximum energy standards.
