Q&A
What does a standard HVAC maintenance visit from Daugherty Heating & Cooling include for my Bedford home?
Our maintenance service is designed to ensure your system runs efficiently and reliably through Indiana's seasons. We perform a comprehensive check, including cleaning critical components, inspecting electrical connections, testing system controls and safety devices, checking refrigerant levels, and lubricating moving parts. This proactive care helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, improves indoor air quality, and can extend the life of your heating and cooling equipment, saving you money on energy bills and major repairs.
My Bedford home's heat pump isn't switching between heating and cooling properly. Can you help?
Yes, this is a common local issue often related to the heat pump's reversing valve or refrigerant charge. Our technicians are experienced in diagnosing and resolving these specific problems in Bedford-area systems. We'll accurately test the valve's operation and check for refrigerant leaks, which are crucial for proper heat transfer. We repair or replace faulty components and ensure the system is correctly charged, restoring your heat pump's ability to provide efficient heating in winter and cooling in summer.
How long does a full HVAC system installation or replacement typically take?
The timeline for an installation depends on the system's complexity and your home's specific setup. A standard furnace or air conditioner replacement for a Bedford home is often completed within a day. More involved projects, like installing a new geothermal system or completing custom sheet metal ductwork for a renovation, may take several days. We provide a clear, detailed timeline upfront and work diligently to minimize disruption to your household, ensuring your new system is installed correctly for long-term performance.
