Transforming a 1971 Home's HVAC

At Horne HVAC Charlotte, we take pride in delivering tailored solutions that not only meet, but exceed our clients’ expectations. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Danielle R. and her family, who reached out to us to upgrade the HVAC system in their charming 1971 Cape Cod-style home. They faced the challenge of needing a reliable heating and cooling system while being conscious of costs.

The Challenge

The initial situation was quite standard for many homeowners—Danielle’s family needed to replace an old HVAC system and install ductwork. However, they faced significant advice from various contractors suggesting the purchase of two separate air conditioning and heating units to create dual zones. This not only felt excessive but also posed a financial burden. That’s when they contacted us, hoping for a more efficient and economical solution.

Our Approach

After our team’s thorough evaluation, we suggested an innovative solution: a dampener system that utilizes the existing air returns and vents. This clever approach allowed us to install just one new AC unit and one heater, paired with new ductwork, saving the family thousands of dollars. Our commitment to finding the best solution tailored to their needs demonstrated not just our expertise, but also our dedication to their comfort.

The project progressed seamlessly, thanks in part to our fantastic team, particularly Sheri Bowers, who was a vital point of contact throughout the process. She ensured that every question was answered and every detail was managed with care and professionalism. Even when a scheduling conflict arose due to the holidays, we stepped up—sending a technician out at no charge to keep the old heating unit operational until the installation date.

"We are so happy that we chose Horne to install a new HVAC system and duct work for our 1971 Cape Cod style home... This was by far the easiest and most stress-free experience in dealing with any type of contractor we've ever had as homeowners." — Danielle R. --- Homeowner

Once we began the installation on January 3, our skilled technicians, led by Richard, worked diligently for three full days. They displayed exceptional professionalism and a commitment to cleanliness, ensuring the yard and crawl space were orderly at the end of each day. As Richard diligently answered all of their questions, he even stayed late on the final day to ensure that everything was functioning perfectly.

The Result

The result of our efforts was a successfully transformed HVAC system that significantly improved the home's comfort and efficiency. The dampener system worked effectively, providing a temperature-controlled environment and enhancing energy efficiency without the need for an expensive dual zone setup.

Furthermore, the experience was noteworthy not just for the physical transformation of the home's HVAC system but also for the relationships built with Danielle and her family. They expressed immense appreciation for our team’s hard work and dedication, and we couldn’t be happier to have earned their trust.

Our commitment to excellence doesn’t just end with installation; we are thrilled to have established a maintenance agreement that will help keep their new system running smoothly for years to come.
