Increase Your Home’s Value With These 4 HVAC Upgrades

Upgrading the HVAC system in your Timberlake, NC, home can reduce your power consumption, make you more comfortable and help you take advantage of new technology. You might increase your home’s value in the process, too. Find out about four HVAC upgrades that can boost your home’s value.

Replacing an Older HVAC System

According to Energy Star, if your current HVAC system is over a decade old, you should consider replacing it. After 10 years, problems might be looming or already developing, and the increased efficiency in modern systems makes this a powerful upgrade. Anyone looking to buy a home won’t want to face a major expense shortly after moving in.

Focus on the Indoor Air Quality

New homeowners want a place where they can rest and breathe easily. An air purifier can remove bacterial contaminants to help everyone in the home stay healthy. UV lighting can destroy the DNA of many such contaminants so that they stop reproducing or growing.

Central Air Conditioning and Heating

Nearly all home buyers expect every home to have central air conditioning and heating. If your home doesn’t currently have such a system in place, you need to install it. It might not boost the home value all that much, but it will be very difficult to sell your home without it.

Maximize Energy Efficiency

Energy-efficient appliances keep monthly utility bills low. That means that anyone buying your home won’t spend too much on utilities after they make the major purchase of a home. An AC system with a minimum Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) of 14 is a good starting point.

The right HVAC upgrades can increase your home’s value for a future sale while making you more comfortable while you live there. Call Ted’s HVAC, Plumbing & Electrical to learn more about our heating and air conditioning options for your house.
