Getting Multiple Quotes for an HVAC Installation in Wichita
Need to get a New Furnace or AC Installed?
When it’s finally time to replace an aging or failing heater or air conditioning system, that can be a big decision. After all, this may be one of the biggest investments for your home. That’s why deciding on a new furnace or an AC replacement should involve research and also getting a second opinion on installation options.
While it doesn’t come cheap, a new home comfort system pays off in many ways. Not only will you get the comfort of heating and cooling that keeps your home at the perfect temperature, but a new HVAC system will also be more energy efficient, which means cheaper energy bills each month!

4 Reasons to Get a Second Opinion on Installation of a New Furnace or AC
- You will better understand the quote and the work involved.
- The estimate sounds too high
- The estimate seems too good to be true
- You want to be sure you are getting exactly the right size unit for your home
1. You Will Better Understand the Installation Process
We understand that the mechanics behind installing an HVAC system are complicated. It’s not something that most Wichita homeowners fully understand. While you do not need to know the details of proper furnace or AC installation, it is still good for homeowners to understand some of the essential basics, such as unit size and SEER rating.
Some of the important cooling factors to consider are explained fully in these helpful guides:
2. Installation Estimate Sounds Too High
There are many different HVAC companies here in Wichita you can call for a heating and cooling system installation. But different companies charge different the same fees. And some companies are cheaper than others.
Many of our customers tell us that they did price checking and found that Fenix Heating & Cooling in Wichita was their best option! If you think a company will charge you more for an AC installation than necessary, let us provide a quote for us to perform the service. This quote is provided at no cost, so there is no reason not to get a second opinion from Fenix!
“I’ve used Fenix for years for fixing anything that broke. But when it came to buying a whole new furnace and ac unit, I decided to shop around.
With 5 quotes from other companies, Fenix still had the best price. No pushy salesman either like some of their competitors. Here on time, installed both, cleaned up and answered every question I had about my new system. Will highly recommend them to everyone I know!!”
3. The Quote is Too Low?
Installing a new home comfort system, whether it’s for new construction or replacing an old system, involves a lot of components. It should only be done by a trained and licensed HVAC technician. If you get a quote for an HVAC installation that seems too low, you may be dealing with a company that is not fully licensed or experienced to handle the work. What may seem like a discount may be a disaster waiting to happen. A poorly installed system is prone to wasting energy, not cooling properly, or even breaking down completely.
Fortunately, we have talented technicians here at Fenix Heating & Cooling. If you think an estimate is too low or you aren’t sure if Wichita HVAC contractor who provided it to you is qualified, give Fenix a call for a 2nd opinion and to speak with a technician experienced in furnace and AC installation.
4. Right System for Your Home
There are a variety of different air conditioning systems. From the manufacturing brand, the unit’s size to the energy efficiency level, there is a right furnace and AC unit that should be installed for your home. And sometimes the proper unit isn’t a traditional unit but rather a heat pump or a ductless mini split system.
A good installation technician uses formulas and HVAC industry standards to determine the best units for any given house. A larger home would need a different system than a smaller home. Putting in too small of a unit will likely lead to insufficient heating or cooling. Installing too large of a unit can cause a lot of wasted energy and higher utility bills!
Having another company like Fenix Heating & Cooling give you a quote allows you to compare the quotes. If there is a significant discrepancy between the types of products recommended for you, that is a red flag that a company may not have appropriately sized the right system for your house.
