Things To Consider Before
You buy
When making your decision of which you will give the opportunity to install your new heating and cooling system, you should keep in mind three very important factors:
THE PRODUCT
Not all heating and cooling systems work efficiently in all climates. Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning knows and understands the demands that the extremes of the Northeast put on heating and especially cooling systems. Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning selects its product lines from the best manufacturers and only sells those products proven to work efficiently while providing environmental comfort from our unpredictable summers to our extreme temperature swings of the western New York winters.
Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning has the experience, from design to installation to service, to provide you with the best system for your home or business. Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning will provide the best equipment because:
1.) It was sized right from the start.
2.) It was built to last.
3.) It was installed right.
THE COMPANY
The best built and longest lasting unit will do no better then the cheapest, IF IT'S INSTALLED WRONG!!!
Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning is committed to doing the job right for you the first time. Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning can assure you that your job will be handled in a fast and efficient manner with your satisfaction always our main goal. Being the most respected Heating and Cooling replacement contractor in the valley, didn't come to us just because we install the most respected brands but also because of the quality way we have dealt with people in the past. It also comes from neighbors who want a quality product; efficient and quality work like that done for their neighbors and friends. Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning has never lost sight of one of the biggest reasons we have become the most respected name in the valley: because we put a priority on meeting our customers needs.
THE PRICE
Price can be a very difficult way to gauge who should do your work. No one expects the company they call to say, "We are the cheapest company, and do business with us and you can be assured a cheap price!"
If you look in the paper, you'll always find some company advertising a cheap price. Gleason Heating and Air Conditioning has talked to customers who have called these companies, none of them were surprised to find out that the cheap prices are almost never the final price. You might ask, if prospective customers know the cheap prices stated in the paper usually are not the true and final price, why advertise them? How can anyone bid a price without knowing what the job entails?
There are maybe three ways for a contractor to lower their price or bid without seeing it:
Spend less time on the job.
Do less work on the job.
Use less material or use lower grade materials
Price must vary due to the time spent on the installation, amount of material/supplies used, or the product used. That is why Cost/Price alone should not be the variable you use to pick a heating and cooling contractor.
Even if you narrow your choice to 2 or 3 companies or brands, you still can't compare companies by cost alone. From the lowest price manufacture to the highest, the range in cost to the contractor for the equipment used is no more than $300.00 to $700.00, but then why can the estimate be so different? You have to dig deeper and find out about the company. Dealing with the company you choose isn't just a one-time thing. It's a long-term relationship! This is the company who will take care of any warranty needed and yearly service needs. With the average life of a Heating or Cooling unit being 15 to 17 years you must consider if your company will be there for you years later.
If you buy the highest price bid, will you get the best job? Well, chances are better in your favor if you do, but it may not be necessary to do that. Just know what you’re getting for your money and make sure you put the company that is doing your job strongly in the equation. Remember what I said before, "THE BEST BUILT, LONGEST LASTING UNIT, WILL DO NO BETTER THEN THE CHEAPEST, IF IT'S INSTALLED WRONG!!!"
