What You Should Ask Before Hiring an HVAC Technician

What You Should Ask Before Hiring an HVAC Technician

When was the last time you gave your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system a checkup? When did your HVAC system last had a scheduled maintenance visit? As responsible homeowners, you should be doing everything to maintain your system and keep it healthy.


Now is the perfect time to hire a reliable HVAC technician to do the job.


The question is: how DO YOU choose the right expert for the job? It is always a great idea to talk to a few different contractors before you can make any decisions.


Here is what you should ask every HVAC technician before you entrust them with your system: "Are you licensed and insured?" HVAC technicians are required to have a license.


If they are not, you probably should not hire them to work on your system.


Make sure that you ask this vital information.


In addition, it is also a great idea to make sure they are insured, just in case something goes wrong while they are working in your home.


You should know if their company has both worker’s compensation as well as liability insurance.


 "How much experience do you have in the HVAC industry?" It is also wise to ask how long they have been working in the HVAC industry.


Are they relatively new or have they been working in the industry for a long time? Knowing how much experience an HVAC expert has helps you feel more comfortable when hiring them.


You should also consider asking how they have learned or acquired their skills.


For instance, if you have a specific brand or type of system, you can also ask them if they have experience with that, too.


 "Can you provide references from previous clients?" Most HVAC technicians will give you a written estimate that explains what work will be done and how much the whole service will cost.


It is, however, important to get references, too.


When you talk to previous customers, this can give you a better idea of how a certain professional works.


If they cannot or will not provide references or reports from other customers, that does not promote a positive thing, and you should most likely hire another HVAC technician.


 If you are looking for the right HVAC professionals to entrust your HVAC system with, you do not have to look any further! Here at Twintech Heating and Cooling, we have reliable HVAC experts that are ready to assist you with all your HVAC needs! We can’t wait to hear from you soon.

by Trevor Owens on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. I’ve used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. He’s great and the service is always top notch. I’d highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

by Nicole Alain on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!

Bob, Greg & Mitch make a great team! Quick appointment times, super knowledgeable, expert troubleshooting capabilities & very customer service oriented.
I would highly recommend them for all of your HVAC needs! Great job guys!!

by Jacqueline Graham on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Twintech Heating & Cooling installed my furnace in 2022 and in fall of 2023 installed my Panasonic Heat Pump. Greg and Mitch did a great job. Helped me through the rebate process. Super happy with the Heat Pump. Only used my furnace 5 times this winter. Energy bills lower, carbon emissions lower.Thank you Twintech. I recommend highly!

by Bill Grainger on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Just had a new furnace installed by Twintech. I can’t express how great these guys are at what they do. From the sales to installation they were professional all the way. Very reasonable pricing and courteous during the installation and willing to answer any questions I had. Highly recommended !!!

by Colin Vernon on Twintech Heating and Cooling

They've cleaned my furnace a couple of times and mentioned that the hot water tank standards were going to change soon so I decided to change mine out.

There were a few challenges during the process but the installers handled the problems without missing a stride! I now have really hot water again!

by Heidi B on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Highly recommend Twintech Heating company, we got honest and detailed information on what was needed to replace and install a new gas furnace. Bob and Greg made us feel comfortable withe process through their thorough explanation and knowledge of the right furnace for our needs. The professionalism and courteous friendly attitude towards the customer is what we liked the most as they treated us like family. So happy with our decision and new furnace we will be looking into get our rental water heater replaced and installed by Twintech team. We feel better having their knowledge on our side and will only trust them with any further maintenance of furnace.

Customer service and knowledge is priority in this industry, and Twintech has it. I've dealt with their team for maintenance and a furnace replacement. They're accommodating and make great recommendations, and came through at a great price over the big guys in the industry. They'll be my next call when I need service or maintenance.

by Leonard Glass on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I decided that the noises and age of the existing furnace which was old and not very efficient to replace it. Gave Greg a call and Grant and Greg got to work on it. Because of supply issues with the current heating type that would be an easier install Greg convinced me to change the location of the system and it would provide me better service for heat and efficiency. I had skeptical but went ahead anyway putting trust in Greg And Grant. Greg, Grant and Mitch came through and in 2 days had completely relocated my heating and A/C system. I can honestly say Greg was right my old house has been warmer and more evenly heated as it ever was. For anyone reading this rather long winded review can take my word for it, Twin Tech can take care of your needs.
