Trying to find the right HVAC contractor for your commercial or residential needs can sometimes be a very stressful process. There are many contractors out there that might seem to be a good fit for you, when in reality, might not actually be.

Here are 4 important things to look for when choosing the right HVAC contractor:

1. Appearance
   The HVAC contractor should show up to your business or home in proper uniform, clearly stating the name of the company via name tag or shirt design.
   
   
2. Punctuality
   The company should provide a proper timeframe for arrival at work, as well as for the timeline of the project.
   
   
3. Knowledge/Ability
   The contractor should be able to enter, look at the problem, figure out the solution and provide you with the correct information and details for resolving the issue.
   
   
4. Cleanup
   After the project/installation is completed, the technician is responsible for all cleanup. The home or area should be returned to the original condition it was in prior to the start of the project.

Similar to other trade contractors, it is important that you choose the right one for you. A lot of times, the first option or the cheapest option is not always the best available and can actually be more costly in the end. Avoid any risks and choose to look for these factors when choosing an HVAC contractor for your next project.
