If you’ve decided to purchase a new, high-efficiency air conditioner, you’re already well on the way to savings on your energy bills. But when it comes time to install the equipment, you need to choose a qualified HVAC technician; however, technicians are not all the same. Hiring an installation professional with elite-level skills will help you get the most out of your warranty and ensure that your new air conditioner runs at peak efficiency. Looking for NATE certification when hiring an HVAC professional is the best way to guarantee service excellence.
“NATE” stands for “North American Technician Excellence.” The program was created by the HVAC industry to give consumers a way to quickly and easily identify the most skilled contractors and service professionals. Unlike mandatory licensing requirements, which are required by law in all U.S. states, NATE certification is an optional professional designation. In order to earn it, a technician must pass a rigorous series of examinations that are specially designed to challenge their knowledge of advanced concepts in HVAC system design, installation, repair and maintenance.
As a consumer, you benefit greatly when you hire someone who has attained NATE certification. Because NATE professionals provide proper equipment installation, your new high-efficiency air conditioner will run at the absolute peak of its capability, which will save you even more on your utility bills. With a NATE contractor at the helm, it’s likely that installation will be faster, cutting down on labor costs. And your technician can provide you with helpful maintenance tips, equipment-usage advice and pointers that technicians without this elite certification might not know.
