System Inspections in Chapel Hill: questions answered
Answered by our licensed technicians serving Chapel Hill.
How often should I have my HVAC system inspected?
We recommend a professional inspection at least once per year. Ideally, have your heating system checked in fall and your cooling system checked in spring, before each season of heavy use.
What is the difference between an inspection and a tune-up?
An inspection is a diagnostic evaluation that identifies problems and rates system health. A tune-up includes the inspection plus hands-on maintenance like cleaning, lubricating, and adjusting components. We offer both.
Can an inspection help me decide whether to repair or replace my system?
Yes. Our inspection report includes an efficiency rating and remaining useful life estimate, giving you the data you need to make an informed repair-vs-replace decision.
Do you inspect ductwork as part of a system inspection?
Yes. We measure static pressure, check accessible duct connections for leaks, and evaluate overall duct design. For a full duct assessment, we also offer dedicated ductwork inspections with airflow testing.
Will the inspection disrupt my home?
No. A standard HVAC inspection is non-invasive and typically completed in 60 to 90 minutes. We work cleanly and will not disassemble anything without discussing it with you first.
