I spent many days doing research and determining the correct system to replace an older inefficient oil furnace with a new Natural Gas High Efficiency Furnace and Install a Brand New Central Air System. I learned from reading many articles knowledge is the key to correctly sized and properly installed HVAC systems. Undersized or oversized systems will just leave you uncomfortable and paying higher utility Bills. Armed with knowledge I called local contractors for bids, and received estimates from 5k-12k and the furnace sizes ranged from 58k-120k Btu. In doing calculations using popular DIY sites I had come up with 65,000 Btu Heat and 30,000 Btu (2.5ton) cooling.
Derek (Owner not some sales guy) quoted me on an 80,000 Btu 2 Stage Carrier Furnace so in low heat mode it's perfect for maintaining temperature but after setting the temperature down at night the High Heat Mode Brings my house back up to temperature quickly in the morning. Other Contractors were quoting Goodman and Comfort Air products for the same or even more money.
The Day of the install Derek and Nathan showed up on time and got right to work removing the old furnace and oil tank. A conversation with Nathan revealed he was a High School Student in a Vocational HVAC program working for Derek. I was amazed at his attention to detail and professionalism being so young, his passion for what he is doing really showed with his nice neat bends of the tubing to the AC Unit.
Several Hours later I had Heat, and it was so quiet, simply amazing how quickly it was able to heat this old house up. Derek went over the system with me and completely cleaned up, the only evidence he was here is the new equipment. If you need a Knowledgeable, Dependable, Friendly HVAC Company Dagesse Heating and Air is the only choice, I will recommend them to anyone, if you want a referral just ask Derek for my number and give me a Call.
