Frequently Asked Questions

What’s unique about providing HVAC services in the Southeast?2017-08-01T21:04:53-05:00

Providing HVAC services in the southeast is complicated by the amount of attention and system resources required to address humidity levels. System sizing is greatly influenced by humidity. Over sizing or under sizing can both give less than optimum efficiency and performance. Bigger is not always better.

Understanding how humidity affects the operation of an HVAC system is important both to the service technicians and installers.

Why do you recommend and sell Trane products?2017-09-07T12:32:33-05:00

We sell Trane because it is unique in so many ways. Trane compressors and coils are only available in Trane equipment and are unlike any other manufacturer. The long development history of the Trane system makes it one of the most reliable systems on the market.

As a Trane Comfort Specialist Dealer, you can rely on both our products and services. Trane offers its contractors training in all new changes and improvement to their systems, ensuring we are able to serve you with the most up to date knowledge available.
