PSA- We Will Not Install Your Amazon Mini Split or A/C and Here's Why

Are you thinking of buying an air conditioning unit or a mini split online? With the ease of online shopping, it can be tempting to save a few dollars. However, before you click that "purchase" button, there are some important considerations to keep in mind. At Airtech Heating & Cooling, we have a strong policy against installing units bought online for several solid reasons. Let's dive into why professional installation is not just a good idea, it's essential for your HVAC needs.

Quality Assurance

Quality can vary greatly when buying HVAC units from online retailers. Many products on platforms like Amazon may not meet the rigorous standards that certified HVAC suppliers follow. For example, up to 30% of units sold online could potentially have faults, leading to inefficiencies or safety hazards.

By choosing a unit from a reputable dealer, you ensure that the equipment is tested for safety and reliability. These suppliers often provide equipment with verified performance ratings. In contrast, online purchases may leave you with faulty products that could malfunction or compromise your home's safety.

Buying HVAC products online can be risky without the guarantee that they are of good quality and may lead to faultiness in their efficiency

Warranty Concerns

Another crucial factor to consider is the warranty. Most manufacturers stipulate that only certified professionals can install their products to maintain warranty coverage.

For instance, if you purchase a unit from Amazon and have it installed by a non-certified technician, you risk voiding the warranty. This could leave you with repair bills that average $300 to $1200 for even minor issues. Choosing Airtech Heating & Cooling means you can rest assured that your installation complies with warranty requirements, protecting your investment.

Proper Sizing and Selection

Choosing the right HVAC system is not simply about picking a model you like. It involves understanding specific factors, including the size of your space and local climate conditions.

An improper unit can lead to inadequate heating or cooling, resulting in discomfort and higher energy costs. For example, a unit that is too small may struggle to cool a 2,000-square-foot home, leading to energy bills that can be 20% higher than necessary. Our team at Airtech Heating & Cooling conducts thorough assessments to recommend units tailored to your home’s specific needs, ensuring optimal performance.

Installation Expertise

Installing an HVAC system is complicated and requires specialized skills.

Though some homeowners take on DIY projects, mistakes during installation can lead to issues such as reduced efficiency or significant system failure. In fact, improperly installed systems can reduce efficiency by up to 30% or become inoperable. Our certified technicians possess the expertise to navigate these challenges, ensuring your system is set up correctly for long-lasting performance.

Safety First

Safety cannot be overlooked when dealing with HVAC installations.

Improper setup can lead to dangerous situations, such as gas leaks or electrical failures. By opting for professional installation with Airtech Heating & Cooling, you gain peace of mind knowing that your system is installed safely and adheres to all local safety regulations. Avoiding these potential hazards is priceless for the well-being of you and your family.

Support and Maintenance

People often overlook the importance of ongoing support and maintenance when buying online.

With Airtech Heating & Cooling, customers benefit from continuous assistance and regular maintenance services, crucial for keeping your HVAC system running smoothly. Routine check-ups can prevent issues that might cost you an average of $200 to $600 in emergency repairs. When you choose us, you’re not just buying a system; you’re gaining a trusted partner committed to year-round comfort.

Energy Efficiency

Energy costs are a primary concern for many homeowners.

When purchasing online, many buyers are unaware of their unit's energy performance ratings. Buying a system with a low efficiency rating can lead to excessive utility bills. For example, systems with Energy Star ratings can save homeowners around 15% to 30% on energy costs. Our team can help you identify energy-efficient systems that not only meet your heating and cooling needs but also protect your wallet in the long run.

Local Knowledge

As a trusted local business, Airtech Heating & Cooling excels at understanding the unique challenges of our climate.

We tailor our recommendations based on local weather and environmental factors, ensuring that your HVAC system can handle everything from freezing winters to sweltering summers. This localized knowledge is a significant advantage over anonymous purchases from online retailers who cannot provide such personalized service.

Final Thoughts

While the ease of buying an HVAC unit online may be tempting, the associated risks can have costly consequences.

At Airtech Heating & Cooling, we prioritize your safety, comfort, and satisfaction. By choosing professional installation, you ensure high-quality service and proper operation. Our commitment to your heating and cooling needs means you can enjoy a comfortable home without the stress of potential pitfalls.
