We Can Always Count on Home-Tech

Have you ever noticed the air conditioning duct system in your home?  Do you know where it is located? Most duct systems in southwest Florida are located in the attic and/or between walls and floors.  These systems are installed during the “rough in” phase of home construction.  Little thought is given to replacement or repair of these systems when they’re installed.  This creates a real challenge when duct systems break down, leak or become undersized for today’s high efficient air-conditioning equipment.  Like most bids in new construction, the contractor awards the job to the lowest bidder.  Low bids rarely result in high quality material and workmanship. The time to look into replacing your duct system is when you are replacing your air conditioning system.

What’s The Cost?

The cost of air conditioning duct replacement varies, based on the difficulty, but be prepared to add 40% to 60% on top of the equipment cost.  Replacing duct systems is a labor-intensive job under the worst working conditions.  Attic temperatures can be about 130 degrees.  The work area is a tight, confining space and it can be filled with fiberglass materials.  Duct mechanics must be trained and skilled in air flow design and installation. When choosing a company to do the work, this is not a place to cut corners.  At Home-Tech, we have the best in the business; skilled craftsmen that ensure your job is completed to the highest standards.

Should You Replace Your Duct System?

Maybe or maybe not.  Many existing duct systems are adequate to accept new air conditioning systems.  To transition your new air conditioning system to your existing duct system, Home-Tech includes the cost of minor duct work adjustments and new duct material in all our estimates.  Your Home-Tech Comfort Specialists will give you the facts about the condition and size of your current duct system.

We wanted to share a customer testimonial from a recent installation so you could get an idea of how we do our work.

They Cared About Our Home Throughout the Process

Re:  A Durant/S Tomaino
All New Duct Work

Dear Mr. Marino,

Recently we replaced all the duct work in my mom’s home through Home-Tech.  The project lasted four days and during  that time we had Josh and Steven there each day along with several others who were in and out.  Everyone who entered our home and worked on the project was great, but we wanted to let you know how much we appreciated Josh and Steven.  Not only did they seem to really know what they were doing, they also clearly cared about our home throughout the process.

Josh and Steven were very professional, but they were also friendly.  That friendliness opened the line of communication for us, and we felt free to ask questions or make comments.  We were thankful for that opportunity because we had a lot of  questions!  Their willingness to discuss various options or ideas I had was beneficial and because of that we added a little additional work.

Having people in your company like Josh and Steven is an asset.  I would not hesitate to open our doors to Home-Tech again because of our interaction with your team.

God’s blessings!

Shout Out to Derek, Home-Tech Air Conditioning Tech Rep

Dear Sir:

I wanted to do a “shout out” for Derek.  Our air conditioning broke down.  I called you and a tech came out the very next day.  He pronounced the system dead and referred us to Derek.  Derek came out the following day and explained the different systems available and their strengths and weaknesses.  I decided on the Maytag IQ. The system has been installed for a few weeks now and my family and I could not be happier, not just because of the impressive unit itself, but because of the overall experience and especially Derek. He did everything right from the get-go, recommended the good-better-best systems, and made sure that the install and financial parts went smoothly.  I would also like to say that the installation was excellent, the craftsmanship and attention to detail first class.  Thank you, Derek and God bless Home-Tech!

Sincerely -

T. Howard

Air Conditioning Advice

Home-Tech’s air conditioning tech reps really do know their products.  If you are considering a new air conditioning system give Home-Tech a chance to give you a quote and walk you through the process.  If you’d like to share about an air conditioning installation you’ve had with us, we’d love to hear about it on our Facebook page or review us on Google.

Dear Mr. Marino:

We had a new Carrier air conditioning system installed.  It was inspected by a Collier County Inspector.  He rejected the installation due to water collecting in the overflow pan under the air handling unit.  The water was due to excessive condensation on the front panels of the unit.

A number of solutions to correct the problem were suggested including one from a Carrier field representative, Mr. Shepley who visited the site accompanied by our employee, Todd B-.  Todd had been assigned to be your lead man for the fix. They made a temporary fix by installing a “splitter” in the duct work to redirect the air flow as well as some additional insulation on the bottom of the front panels.  Todd was to return to make the fix a permanent one, if it worked. It didn’t work. There was water in the pan every day thereafter.

Todd returned along with a helper. They moved the unit and reinstalled much improved boxes on both ends as well as some new insulation supplied by Carrier. That effort worked. The pan has remained dry ever since. The installation was inspected by Collier County and accepted.

Todd is obviously technically oriented, very knowledgeable about air conditioning, persistent and analytical in his problem solving and “laid back” enough to handle your customers so as to assure them that Home-Tech is doing its best to keep them as satisfied customers.  He is an outstanding representative for Home-Tech.

I commend Home-Tech for the quality of its employees.  Their positive attitude toward their work and their desire to service their customers is apparent.  Everyone that I’ve dealt with in your organization, during this problem time, has expressed that desire.

I’ll certainly recommend Home-Tech to my friends and neighbors.

Sincerely -

G. Parker
