Do some research. Be sure to find some information before you start looking. Take a look at your system as is and take some notes on maintenance history, past issues and its model. You should also take a look at the license and insurance requirements for heating and air conditioning service providers in Mankato area.

Get personal recommendations. Take some time to see if your friends, family and co-workers have any suggestions. Knowing someone had a helpful experience with a company can be a useful way to know what their service is like.

Get proposals from multiple companies. Get the itemized estimates in writing so you can analyze the different cost, energy efficient and warranty information. You also need see referrals from current customers. A company may give the lowest prices, but it may not really be the best value. Think about how these factors will impact your home comfort in the long run before you decide.

Plan on a detailed home evaluation. Don’t give your business to a who offers you a quote over the phone for a new or replacement system without visiting your home. A good heating and air condition company will go through examination of your house and your current system to understand your needs and the best system to meet them.
