Jordan and the office was great to work. Jordan was very knowledgeable in his work.
Very conscientious, friendly and appeared knowledgeable. Appreciated the helpful communications with Travis!
Minuteman services were awesome to work with, Fair and Honest. Upfront about charges and quick response. Jordan was professional and knowledgeable. Thank you!!! Will definitely be using them for our home needs here on out.
Matt came to change the lights timer and when he finished he took the time to clean up really good after all the insulation fell from the ceiling
Minute Man was quick to come out, gave a free estimate and fixed our fire place without any hassles. From start to finish was a great experience. Will call again!
Jordan at Minuteman Services was fantastic! He came out quickly to fix my mom’s furnace and had it running again in no time. He took the time to explain everything clearly so we knew exactly what was going on and what to expect. Super professional, friendly, and efficient — couldn’t ask for better service. Highly recommend!
We had issues with one of the lights in our office building. I googled places to repair them, and was impressed with the reviews this company had. They were scheduled to come give us a quote on a Wednesday and to our surprise the light was fixed before they were scheduled to come take a look. The repair was done quickly and I was impressed with everyone in the company. So happy with the repair that was Made!
My furnace is getting old and had some issues this year. Minuteman has done maintenance for me since we bought our home. Contacted Jarrod and he sent Jordan out to check things out. They said they could fix it if they needed to, and would recommend to repair it over a replacement, but my preference was just fix it once and for all and get a new one. They gave me a quote including about $6,000 in optional upgrades. After speaking to them, they helped me decide that only a small upgrade of $800 was the best choice for me and my family and my home. I am willing to pay top dollar for the best system available, but they said that a lower price system was actually better for me in my situation. These guys are honest to a fault and absolutely the best at what they do.
I want to give a HUGE SHOUTOUT to Minuteman Services LLC - While my mother was getting her yearly checkup/service on her furnace, she mentioned an issue she was having with her main power connection to her house to the service tech Jordan. Jordan immediately recognized the danger as last winter's ice had completely disconnected ground and also left the main power dangling by a thread. Minuteman Services LLC not only recognized the issue, but got it taken care of both quickly (and correctly) making my Mom's house safe again - and at an ABSOLUTELLY unbeatable price. The honesty, empathy and compassion shown by this company is one that is SECOND to NONE!! I want to personally thank them for the superior job well done!! I highly recommend Minuteman Services LLC for all your HVAC and Electrical service needs!! Thank you again!!
Great to work with and great on follow-up! I had limited time when I did the one-liner above and am now coming back to add more detail. Minuteman did a full HVAC replacement at our home. They did not suggest the full replacement, but I requested it due to the age of our system and the upgrades I wanted. The new system has more functionality with better efficiency and includes a humidifier and an electronic filter. The installers were very professional and respectful in our home. And Travis oversaw the entire process from start to finish including a follow-up software upgrade on our new thermostat. We could not be happier with our new system.
Excellent service!!! Jordan did an amazing job troubleshooting and repairing my furnace. He was timely, professional, and courteous. All of my questions were answered and he took the time to listen to and address all concerns. Very pleased.
Fast response, EXCELLENT service and very affordable pricing 100% recommend!
Jordan came and got our furnace up and running in no time! Professional and knowledgeable. We just started using these guys at the property management company I work for too. Definitely recommend!
Such an awesome team! The promise of great service is easy to get- actually achieving great service - hard to come by these days. FOUND IT! We will be toasty warm this winter THANKS MINUTE MAN TEAM!
Amazing customer service, great to work with! No hidden fees! And very very helpful! Thank you for installing my range hood and gas line!! 🥰🥰🥰
Excellent experience with Minuteman! So happy with my new system. Ultimate professionals. Don’t hesitate!
Very prompt service, extremely knowledgeable staff and courteous interaction.
The employees showed up earlier than scheduled and got right to work. Everything is working wonderfully and they explained everything so I wasn't lost on using new equipment. Definitely would use again. Top recommendations for them. Thanks to all
These guys are great! They respond quickly and are professional. Travis and Jordan were very friendly and informative helping us fix both a blocked drain for the hvac and a gas leak. I would definitely recommend them!
The full experience was exceptional from the beginning starting with them coming out to do an inspection on the furnace for us. They were honest with me letting me know that I could get a little more life out of it but that honesty sold me which led us to an install today. I could not be happier and say enough of how wonderful Minute Man Service is to deal with. Thanks to everyone who was involved!
Had furnace serviced, plus Jordan repaired a gas stove in our basement, one that probably hadn't been running for some time. That took a lot of work, as it had a few problems, thus the reason it hadn't been used in quite a while. Jordan kept us informed as to his schedule and what was needed to get everything up and running. Thanks Jordan!
The men showed up on time and were very courteous. Went straight to work and had the problem fixed in 20 minutes. I was very happy with their work.
Jordan was super friendly and efficient! He did great work and explained everything. Would definitely recommend! We are so thankful for Minute Man services to have found a replacement coil for the AC so we didn’t have to buy a whole new unit yet. Trevor came out quickly after we called asking for a second opinion. He was able to find the leak and helped map out the options we had. He was super friendly and very knowledgeable. I never felt pressure with choosing what option we were given to fix the unit. I was also impress with Jasmine in the office.
Jordan, Matt and Trevor, were great. They were courteous and very professional. They completed needed ducting repair and installed a safety switch. We highly recommend MinuteMan for any HVAC service.
Big shout out to Minuteman Service for installing my new HVAC / heat pump. They were very professional, on time, answered all my questions, and best of all did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend them for any of your heating and cooling needs.
Matt and Matt#2 Aaron and Trevor all did awesome job. They are some real "cool" guys
Minute Man Service installed some mini air conditioning and heating units for us in our addition. They were friendly and professional and performed the work quickly. They also made sure they protected our new carpet from getting dirty which I really appreciate. I would totally recommend them!
Very professional and amazing clean installation, Great job guys, I highly recommend Minueman services to all
Jordan was fabulous! Explained what was going on, fixed the problem with a smile and was just very helpful. Strongly recommend Minuteman Services and I hope your lucky to get Jordan (though I'm sure all the workers are equally as great). Today, Matt and Trevor came out and put in a new filter system for me and they were fabulous! Very nice guys and great work done!
Jordan was super easy to deal with! Listened well to my concerns and was super helpful! Great customer service and quick service as well!
These guys are awesome!! I was having an issue after hours on a Friday evening, and couldn't get anyone out til Monday, but we talked on the phone, and I was able to fix my problem with some " coaching" over the phone. I kept my appointment for Monday, and I was more than pleased with their tech!! He is awesome, and now I am on a bi-annual service plan!! thank you Minuteman
Great experience from start to finish, from initial phone call scheduled for Tuesday, received call back with opening end of day Friday. Travis was great, very familiar with our unit, diagnosed and fixed the problem quickly. I highly recommend them!
I had a mini split heating and a/c system installed. Travis, Trenton and Alisa were great! The system was installed, tested and running in just a day and a half. They were neat and careful and answered any questions I had. I would recommend them highly!
Jordan was professional. He was able to get to our AC unit quickly and get it back up and running and we will definitely be using him in the future with our HVAC maintenance and repair needs.
I was able to get a solid hvac system for a great price. They also worked hard and got me scheduled quickly. Jordan made sure everything was perfect on the installation.
Absolutely amazing service. Travis did a great job in fixing our water heater. Went above and beyond. Great communication
If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Jordan was awesome and had the problem diagnosed and fixed ASAP. we will call them every time for HVAC questions and repairs. Vince Wray
Jordan did an amazing job. I got my gas line in record time, in my opinion, with very little sheet rock disturbance. He cleaned up as appropriate. I now have a fully functioning gas cooktop thanks to Jordan. 👍 Side note, Travis fixed a minor thermostat wiring issue, my bad, during consultation for the gas line, free of charge. Win win for me.
Such great customer support and service! Travis did an excellent job with the yearly maintenance of my heater. He found an issue the home inspector missed when I purchased this place and gave me several options on moving forward. Will continue to use this company for yearly maintenance and the new install of heat and air.
Dual fuel heat pump installation done on time. I recommend this company for their professional work.
MinuteMan is always my go to for HVAC and Electrical work. We got a new AC unit and also moved it from beside our back porch to the side of the house. We got 4 bids to do this work. Only MinuteMan was honest about doing this work. We only have a one stage HVAC system. The other quotes ranged from $14,000 to $16,000. They were insistent that I needed two stage or variable stage units. MinuteMan noted that since our system was a single stage system, unless we were also going to replace our entire HVAC system, those other AC units would just run single stage anyways and thus be a complete waste of money. They also were much more knowledgeable about the code and requirements for running the new systems and avoided having to cut into walls and do very expensive work. I validated everything that they said and it was all legit. The AC system that we got was HALF the price of those other systems. The installation was professional and the crew was amazing. The bidding and communication was also amazing. We also had an in-wall dog door that I needed to install and their electrician installed it for us for a very minimal fee and did an amazing job! This wasn't part of the bid or work, they just did it while they were here and helped me out a TON! You really can't go wrong with MinuteMan. EDIT: Thank you to Jordan, Trevor, Matt, Shane, and Jace!
1st time commercial business customer. Called in after my business AC unit went down. Immediately had Jarod pick up the phone, scheduled me in immediately. Its Friday and had me scheduled Monday morning. Great on diagnostic service rate charge. I had called multiple highly rated HVAC companies previously, no one picked up or responded to my service call request, and lost opportunity to help. Give the little guys a chance, and they come through. Minuteman picked up and won my business, and quickly got me on the schedule. Minuteman will be my call moving forward for any needs. Thank you Jarod, and Tyson my service tech coming out quickly Monday to fix me up.
Travis did a great job fixing our leak with our HVAC. He was helpful in in telling me what he did to fix the issue, step by step.
If needed I would call them again without hesitation. Quick, professional and thorough. They fixed my issues and my house is cool again!! Thank you!
They were quick and professional. Pricing was very reasonable and work was done very well.
Excellent service, replied to texts on a weekend night with advice and a few things to try before coming out and fixing the issue!
Very Professional. Excellent service from beginning to end. Definitely the guys to see for HVAC and Electrical. Very satisfied with our Mini Split Heat pump A/C system.
Shoutout to Minuteman Services today for the quick response for my electrical problem. Ted arrived within an hour of me calling and completed the job of repairing an outlet that was giving shocks when touched. …. not good!! Also replaced another switch that was bad and checked another for me!! Great attention to detail and the repair cost was very reasonable! Thank you Ted and Minuteman Services. I will certainly be using them again in the future!!!
These guys are awesome top notch installation very professional I will never use anyone else
Great job on the installation. Electricial guys and the Hvac. Looks great too.
Thanks Shayne for your fast, friendly service. Shayne identified my electrical problem, discussed options and fix the issue in record time! I appreciate your help!
Jordan, Trevor and Jarrod were really helpful installing my mini split
I recently had a heat pump system installed by Jordan and Dylan with Minuteman, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. They took the time to explain all of my options, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and provided a clear and fair estimate. The installation process itself was quick, clean, and affordable. The technicians arrived on time, worked diligently, and treated my home with respect. Now that the heat pump is up and running, I’m already noticing a difference in comfort and energy efficiency. It’s quiet, effective, and exactly what I needed. I would absolutely recommend Minuteman to anyone looking to have a heatpump installed.
Travis and his electrician were prompt, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. They found the problem in my home air conditioner, had the replacement part in their truck and after servicing and total system check I have a functioning system again. The price for parts & labor was less than I expected. I only wish I was able to give them a higher rating than 5. JOB WELL DONE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, the Taylor Family.
Travis called before he went and was able to repair unit right there and was very knowledgeable & friendly
I can’t say enough about the way you guys came out really quick and did a great job! Five stars for sure! Thank you! I will be passing along to everyone I know!
Travis from Minute Man took care of our air conditioning problems today. We appreciated his patience in explaining different options and helping us find a good resolution. We will continue to call on them for any of our HVAC needs. I would highly recommend Minute Man and Travis to anybody with HVAC concerns.
These guys were awesome . We had another company come out and work on AC twice with no permanent repair. Minuteman was out to check out our system and had located the issue within an hour. They were fair and honest to deal with. We won’t call anyone else in the future .
Travis was fantastic. He fixed our problem quickly and was very fair with his price. We will most definitely call Minute Man again for help when we need it!
These guys are amazing to work with and helped get me setup with a fantastic AC system after I completely failed to DIY the installation myself. They replaced all my faulty equipment and worked very quickly to get us up and running. I cannot recommend these guys enough!!
Great company from the first call to the completion of installation of new fujitsu split level heating and air unit. Jordan & Dillon were absolutely the best! It's so nice to find honest & knowledgeable people!
We have used Minuteman several times now and every time they have been wonderful to work with both for big major things and for regular maintenance
Always have great service with Minuteman. They are thorough and do a great job. Excellent communication and install. Highly recommend for HVAC, mini splits and chimney service.
Ted did an awesome job taking care of my family by installing a new water heater electric power breaker in order for my family to have hot water. Very professional, fast response and clean work! I highly recommend Minuteman Services LLC. for all your HVAC and electrical needs.
Have dealt with Minuteman several times over the course of a few years. They did three new installs on cabins in Island Park. One of the units had issues through no fault of theirs. However they made several trips up to fix it and finally just installed a new unit at no cost to me. Jared always takes my calls and answers my questions. Great young business with a bright future.
I needed to have my AC system cleaned and serviced 2 years after the Minutemen guys installed it. They also installed a new furnace at that time. They were able to come out quickly and were very friendly and efficient. I was surprised that they came out about 2 days after I called them rather than the week or more I usually have to wait for most service companies. I was impressed with these guys when they installed my system as well as for this service call. I highly recommend them to anyone for furnace and AC installation or service and repair.
Excellent service. I have used them multiple times for electrical and heating needs, and have been able to have someone at our house within a few days, if not same day. Will use again.
They did good work at a very competitive price. Travis‘s communication was great throughout the whole process
These guys go work to solve problems, not just get jobs done. They were great and super transparent about pricing and all the work they were doing. Highly recomend! The owner came himself when we had some hiccups and made sure we were taken care of.
Prompt and professional service. Travis was great at explaining the product and timely on bid and scheduling. Jordan and Dylan were awesome at installation. Highly recommend.
I really appreciate your guy coming here to take care of my furnace. He was kind, helpful, and took care of the problem in a short amount of time. I would recommend your services to any. Thank you so much!
We had to replace an outdated heating system. Jordan, Travis and Dillion were awesome. Great customer service. They also helped us get a rebate through our power company. Highly recommended.
Competent. Priced fairly. Professional. Can't say enough good about these guys.

Most Common AC Installation Questions
Air conditioning installation is an important service for homeowners and business owners looking to improve indoor comfort. A professional installation ensures long-term performance, energy efficiency, and reliable operation. Choosing the right contractor helps avoid issues like short cycling, uneven cooling, and high energy bills.
A proper air conditioning installation begins with selecting the correct size unit based on the cooling load of your space. An experienced HVAC contractor will perform load calculations using square footage, insulation levels, window size, and sun exposure. Choosing the right size system is essential for comfort and efficiency. If the unit is too small, it will run constantly and fail to cool properly. If the unit is too large, it will cycle on and off too often, leading to increased wear and poor humidity control. In addition to sizing, the installer should follow all local codes, secure electrical connections, and test refrigerant pressure. A professional team will also test airflow and make sure your thermostat is programmed correctly.
The brand and model of your air conditioner also matter, but even top-tier equipment can fail without proper installation. A good contractor will explain system features, SEER ratings, and maintenance needs before starting the job. It is important to ask questions about the installation timeline, warranty coverage, and what the estimate includes. Reputable HVAC companies provide clear communication, written estimates, and licensed technicians. Always confirm that the contractor is insured and experienced with your type of system. Look for reviews, ask for references, and check their certifications. A quality install improves comfort, lowers energy use, and prevents early breakdowns.
After installation, the contractor should inspect your ductwork, check refrigerant levels, and perform a full system test. They should also explain how to use the new thermostat, review maintenance requirements, and provide documentation for your records. A good company will also offer service plans to keep your system running at peak performance. The installer should clean up after the job and respect your home during the process. These details make the difference between a rushed install and a long-lasting result. Choosing a qualified installer helps ensure your AC system delivers strong performance from day one.
Several signs indicate it may be time to replace your current air conditioner. If your system is more than 10 years old and needs frequent repairs, replacement is often more cost-effective than ongoing service. You may also notice uneven cooling, high energy bills, or strange noises coming from the unit. Poor airflow, warm air from the vents, or frequent shutdowns are signs that your system is not running as it should. These issues can be caused by worn components, low refrigerant, or failing electrical parts. If your system uses R-22 refrigerant, replacement is strongly recommended due to the phase-out of that product. Older units are less efficient and more expensive to run.
Our professional contractors can inspect your system and provide a detailed assessment. They will check the compressor, fan motor, refrigerant levels, and electrical controls. Sometimes a repair can restore function, but replacement is usually the better option if problems are frequent. A new energy-efficient unit can significantly reduce your monthly energy use. SEER ratings on modern air conditioners are much higher than those from a decade ago. New systems are also quieter, more reliable, and compatible with smart thermostats. Upgrading helps improve home comfort while cutting costs over time.
An outdated air conditioner can also affect your indoor air quality and humidity control. New systems provide more consistent cooling and include advanced filtration options. Installing a new unit allows you to choose features like variable speed fans, multi-zone controls, and remote operation. If your system is no longer meeting your needs or constantly breaking down, it is time to explore replacement options. A professional evaluation is the best way to determine your next step. Replacing your old system now helps you avoid breakdowns during the hottest part of the year.
Emergency air conditioning services are available when your system fails suddenly and you need immediate help. This includes situations where your air conditioner completely stops working during extreme temperatures. Our qualified HVAC team will diagnose the issue and take steps to restore cooling as quickly as possible. Emergency service can include temporary repairs, refrigerant recharge, electrical troubleshooting, or even full system replacement. These services are designed to restore indoor comfort and prevent further damage to your HVAC system. It is important to contact a licensed contractor who offers 24/7 or same-day service for AC emergencies.
Minuteman Services offers emergency AC installation and repair services to handle unexpected breakdowns. Our team is trained to respond quickly, assess the situation, and provide options based on your specific needs. We bring the tools and replacement parts needed to get your system back online fast. If your system cannot be repaired, we can begin the installation process for a new unit. Emergency service helps protect your home, family, and equipment during extreme heat. We understand that AC failure is stressful, and we work to resolve issues with minimal disruption to your routine. Our team provides clear communication, fair pricing, and dependable solutions.
To avoid emergencies, consider enrolling in a service plan with routine maintenance. These plans help catch issues early and keep your system in good shape. However, if your system does fail, do not wait. Emergency service ensures your cooling needs are met as quickly as possible. Always call a licensed HVAC contractor who understands how to work safely and efficiently. Avoid trying to repair the system yourself or hiring an unqualified technician. Fast, professional emergency service helps restore comfort and protect your investment in your HVAC system.
High-efficiency air conditioners use less energy to produce the same level of cooling as standard models. This results in lower monthly utility bills, especially during hot summer months. Systems with higher SEER ratings are designed to operate more efficiently under all conditions. In addition to energy savings, these units provide more consistent temperatures, better humidity control, and quieter operation. Many also include smart thermostat compatibility and multi-speed fans for improved comfort. A professional installer will help you choose a model that fits your budget and cooling needs. High-efficiency units often qualify for rebates, tax credits, and utility incentives.
Another benefit of high-efficiency air conditioners is their positive impact on the environment. They reduce energy consumption, which lowers your household’s carbon footprint. Some models also use more eco-friendly refrigerants that are safer for the ozone layer. Over time, the cost of the unit is offset by savings on your electric bill. These systems are also built with better components and tend to last longer with proper maintenance. You get improved air quality, reduced noise, and fewer temperature fluctuations throughout your home. Advanced filtration options help reduce dust, allergens, and other airborne particles.
Professional installation is critical for maximizing the performance of a high-efficiency unit. The installer will ensure the system is sized correctly, the ductwork is sealed, and the thermostat is programmed for maximum savings. Routine maintenance, like filter changes and coil cleaning, keeps the system running at peak efficiency. Investing in a high-efficiency air conditioner improves comfort, reduces expenses, and adds value to your home. If you are upgrading from an older system, the difference in performance will be noticeable. High-efficiency AC systems are a smart choice for long-term comfort and cost control.
The time required to install a new air conditioner depends on several factors, including the type of unit, the layout of your home, and the condition of existing equipment. Most standard installations can be completed within one working day, but complex projects may take longer. If you are switching from an older system or changing the unit type, additional time may be needed for ductwork adjustments or electrical upgrades. Our professional HVAC team will assess your space, review any challenges, and give you a clear estimate before starting the job. Proper planning and preparation help avoid delays and ensure a smooth process. Removing the old unit, setting up the new one, connecting wiring, and charging refrigerant are all part of a complete install. Testing and quality checks are also done before the system is turned over to the homeowner.
Professional installation includes more than just placing the unit outside. The HVAC technician must confirm the system is level, the airflow is balanced, and the thermostat is communicating properly with the AC unit. If your ductwork needs repairs or modifications, that can extend the installation time. Other variables like weather conditions, attic access, or crawlspace setup can also affect how long the job takes. Despite these factors, an experienced team can typically finish a residential install in one day. Commercial systems or multi-zone systems may take longer. Asking for a detailed project scope helps set realistic expectations and allows for proper scheduling.
Before the job begins, it is important to clear the work area and provide access to the system location. This speeds up the process and helps the crew stay on track. Once the install is finished, the technician will walk you through how to use the new thermostat, discuss maintenance tips, and answer any questions. At Minuteman Services, our team is trained to complete air conditioning installations efficiently and with minimal disruption. We focus on getting your system up and running quickly while ensuring long-term performance. Our goal is to deliver fast service without sacrificing quality or safety.
The best type of air conditioner for your home depends on your layout, cooling needs, and existing infrastructure. Central air conditioning is the most common option for homes with ductwork already in place. These systems offer whole-home cooling through a network of vents and are ideal for consistent temperatures in every room. If your home does not have ductwork, a ductless mini-split system may be the best choice. These systems provide zoned cooling and can be installed with minimal disruption. They are also energy efficient and allow for independent control in each room. For smaller spaces or additions, window units or portable air conditioners may be considered, but they are not as efficient or permanent.
Choosing the right system also involves looking at energy efficiency ratings, typically measured in SEER. A higher SEER rating means lower energy use and monthly bills. Variable-speed or two-stage systems offer more comfort and better humidity control than single-stage models. Heat pumps are another efficient option and can provide both heating and cooling, making them ideal for year-round comfort. It is important to work with a licensed HVAC contractor who can evaluate your home’s needs and recommend the right unit size and type. An oversized system will waste energy, while an undersized one will struggle to cool your space.
Minuteman Services helps you compare options based on your budget, space, and goals. We install all major types of residential air conditioning systems and guide you through the decision-making process. Our team explains the pros and cons of each type and makes sure the selected system is a good fit for your home. We consider insulation, window exposure, ceiling height, and lifestyle habits to find the most efficient solution. A properly chosen air conditioner improves comfort, lowers costs, and adds value to your home. Our goal is to install a system that performs well and lasts for years with proper maintenance.
A new air conditioning system should be serviced at least once a year to keep it running at peak performance. Annual maintenance includes cleaning components, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical connections, and testing system performance. Regular service helps prevent costly repairs, improves energy efficiency, and extends the life of your equipment. Our HVAC professionals recommend scheduling maintenance in the spring before the cooling season begins. This ensures the system is ready for high demand and allows time to address any issues. Neglecting maintenance can lead to reduced airflow, higher energy bills, and even system failure. Dirty coils and filters are common causes of poor performance and can be easily addressed during routine visits.
Even brand-new systems benefit from regular inspections. Early service helps catch minor issues before they turn into bigger problems. It also ensures your warranty stays valid, as many manufacturers require documented maintenance to honor coverage. A maintenance visit typically includes filter changes, thermostat calibration, drainage checks, and motor inspections. These steps help your system maintain the efficiency rating promised by the manufacturer. If you skip service, your system may lose efficiency and comfort levels over time. Seasonal maintenance is especially important in areas with high summer temperatures.

We provide reminders, priority scheduling, and detailed inspections to keep your system running smoothly. Our licensed technicians follow a comprehensive checklist to ensure all components are working properly. Investing in routine service protects your system and keeps your indoor environment comfortable year-round. It also helps you avoid unexpected breakdowns and emergency repair costs. Regular maintenance is one of the easiest ways to get the most from your air conditioning investment.
Yes, financing is available for new air conditioning installation to help make the investment more manageable. Many homeowners prefer financing to avoid large upfront payments and spread the cost over time. Financing options vary by provider and can include monthly payment plans, low-interest loans, or promotional terms. Minuteman Services partners with trusted financing providers to help qualified customers get approved quickly. These programs allow you to get the cooling you need now without delaying installation. Our team can explain available options, terms, and how to apply during your consultation. Financing helps you move forward with a high-efficiency system that saves money over time.
When you apply for HVAC financing, lenders will typically consider credit score, income, and other basic qualifications. The process is usually fast and straightforward. You may be able to finance part or all of the installation cost, including equipment, labor, and additional upgrades like smart thermostats. Some plans come with deferred interest or no payment periods to ease the initial cost. Financing can also help you choose a better unit with higher efficiency and longer lifespan, rather than settling for a cheaper, less reliable option. With flexible plans, you can improve your home comfort without compromising on quality.
Minuteman Services believes every homeowner should have access to reliable cooling, regardless of budget. That is why we make financing part of the conversation during every estimate. We work with you to find a solution that fits your financial goals and comfort needs. Our team provides clear terms, transparent pricing, and guidance through the application process.
