Know before you buy. Sell with confidence. Heating and cooling repairs and replacements are some of the most expensive surprises in owning a home, and they are the ones a sale tends to hide.
A general inspector confirms the system turns on. That is not the same as knowing what it is worth, how it was installed, how much life is left in it, or whether it is safe. Our Home Sale HVAC Inspection is a detailed assessment of the heating and cooling system before the sale is finalized, so the number in the contract reflects what is actually in the basement.
A detailed assessment of the heating and cooling system before a sale closes, with the findings in writing.
The whole system, not a power-on test, and you get the findings in a report you can hand to anyone.
The physical state of the equipment, and the safety items that matter most: heat exchanger, combustion, venting, and gas connections. A system that heats fine can still be unsafe, and that is not something to take on trust during a sale.
Whether the system actually delivers what it is rated for. Airflow, temperature split, and how the equipment behaves through a full cycle rather than in the first thirty seconds.
How the system was put in, which is where a lot of hidden cost lives. Sizing, ductwork, condensate, clearances, and whether previous work was done properly or done quickly.
Controls, wiring, connections, and the electrical parts that fail first. We run the system and report how it behaves, not how it looks sitting still.
Our findings, recommended repairs, maintenance concerns, and an estimate of the remaining service life of the system. Written so you can put it in front of a seller, a buyer, or an agent.
Any point where the condition of the system changes what the property is worth to you.
You are buying and the listing does not say how old the system is
You are selling and want to price the home without a late surprise
The general home inspection flagged the HVAC and you need detail
You are negotiating repairs or a credit and need something in writing
The furnace or AC looks recently installed and you want the work checked
The property has been vacant or the system has not run in a while
You are inside an inspection period and the clock is running
Seeing any of these? Call (219) 649-0149 and describe it. We will tell you honestly whether it can wait.
Straight answers, no fine print. Anything not covered here, the phone is faster.
A general home inspector confirms the system runs and looks for obvious problems. We assess the equipment itself: safety, installation quality, performance, airflow, electrical components, and how much service life is realistically left. It is the difference between it turns on and here is what you are buying.
That is one of the main reasons people order one. You get the findings, the recommended repairs, and our assessment of remaining service life in writing, so a conversation about price or credits is based on the system rather than on guesswork.
Both. A buyer wants to know what they are taking on. A seller wants to know what is coming before someone else finds it, so it can be handled or priced in rather than reopening the deal late.
Yes, if you want that. The report stands on its own and you are free to take it anywhere. If you would rather we handle the work, we can price it, but nothing about the inspection depends on you using us for the repair.
