How much does a furnace tune-up cost?
+
A furnace tune-up typically costs $99–$149. This includes a safety inspection, filter replacement, heat exchanger inspection, and efficiency testing. We check for any obvious repairs needed and give you a transparent quote before proceeding. Call us at (440) 370-6774 for an exact quote based on your system.
Why is my AC not cooling the house?
+
Common causes: low refrigerant charge, dirty condenser coil, thermostat miscalibration, or a failed compressor. We diagnose it with a comprehensive system check, and during the busy summer months we offer same-day service whenever possible — just call (440) 370-6774.
How often should I change my air filter?
+
Every 1–3 months for standard 1-inch filters. Thicker MERV-13 filters may last longer — up to 90 days. If you have pets or live in a dusty area, every month is better. We check your filter every visit and replace it if needed at no surprise charge.
What's the difference between a heat pump and a furnace?
+
A furnace burns fuel (gas) or uses electric heat to warm air. A heat pump moves heat from outside air into your home — even in cold weather. Heat pumps are more efficient but cost more upfront. In Northeast Ohio, many homes use furnaces for winter and AC for summer. We'll recommend the best option for your home and budget.
What warranty comes with a new system?
+
As a Mitsubishi Diamond Contractor, T&T Heating & Cooling installs systems backed by strong manufacturer warranties — up to 12 years on parts and the compressor for qualifying equipment. We stand behind our workmanship on every job. If something fails under warranty, we make it right.
How fast can you get to me?
+
When you call during our business hours (Mon–Fri 7am–5pm), you reach real people and we work to get a technician out to you as fast as possible — most repairs are completed the same day. Our trucks are stocked with common parts, so there's no "we'll be back tomorrow with the part" surprise. Upfront pricing is always guaranteed before any work begins.
Can I finance my system replacement?
+
Yes. We offer financing options starting at 0% APR for 60 months on qualified purchases. Payments typically range $150–$300/month depending on the system and financing term. Ask about our financing when you request a free estimate — (440) 370-6774.
What's included in a maintenance plan?
+
Our maintenance plans include fall furnace tune-up, spring AC inspection, priority scheduling, 15% discount on repairs, and free system checks. Most plans cost $149–$249/year. Regular maintenance prevents 80% of breakdowns and extends system life by 3–5 years.
How long does an HVAC system last?
+
A well-maintained furnace lasts 15–20 years. AC units last 10–15 years. Heat pumps last 10–15 years. Regular maintenance extends life. If your system is over 15 years old, replacement is usually more cost-effective than repairs. We'll do a free evaluation — call (440) 370-6774.
Do I need a permit for HVAC work?
+
Yes. Most furnace and AC installations require a permit. We handle all permitting and inspections as part of our installation — no extra fees. Permits protect your home's resale value and ensure safety compliance.
What brands of equipment do you install?
+
We install Mitsubishi and other leading, reliable brands. As a Mitsubishi Diamond Contractor, we can offer their strongest warranties. We don't push one brand — we recommend what fits your home and budget. Most equipment comes with 5–10 year manufacturer warranties.
How fast can you schedule an appointment?
+
We move quickly — most repair calls are handled the same day during business hours, and scheduled service is typically next business day within a 2-hour window. Request by 5pm and we'll aim to visit the next day. We call about 30 minutes before arrival, so there are no surprise missed appointments.
