Reasons to Choose a Fully Licensed and Insured HVAC Contractor

Your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system is a major investment. You want to ensure that the HVAC contractor doing the work is qualified to work with your equipment. Although you may find inexpensive contractors in Raleigh, NC, the lowest bidder may cost you more in the long run. Here are things to consider as you select an HVAC contractor.

Licenses and Certifications

North Carolina requires that HVAC contractors be licensed. Each company must have at least one licensed individual that oversees the work of unlicensed technicians. To qualify, applicants must have two years or 4,000 hours of full-time experience in HVAC installation, repairs, or maintenance services. North Carolina also offers licensing for technicians. Applicants for any license must meet stated qualifications and pass an exam. Licensing demonstrates industry competency and requires compliance with local codes, laws, and standards. A company should display its license in its office and on its website.

Industry certifications demonstrate technical expertise and training in core competencies and specialties. Certified dealers are trained on state-of-the-art equipment, guarantee a high level of customer satisfaction, and are authorized to honor manufacturer’s warranties.
