A young couple in West Forsyth had just bought their house when the 18-year-old AC quit during a heat wave. "We do not have that kind of money sitting around," she said. Most people do not budget for a new system until it is already an emergency. Used well, financing turns that into a manageable monthly payment.
What we offer
- Lenders: Wells Fargo and the Carrier credit card program.
- Plans: including 0% APR promotional plans, subject to credit approval.
- Where you see it: every new-system estimate shows the monthly payment for each option next to the pay-in-full price, and you can apply from the estimate.
Terms and promotions vary and are set by the lender. Read the terms before you accept. Some promotional plans are deferred interest: if the balance is not paid off by the end of the promotion, interest can be charged back to the start. Plan your payments to finish on time.
When financing makes sense
- Your system has failed and you need heat or cooling now.
- The monthly payment fits your budget comfortably.
- You can pay off a 0% promotional balance within its term.
- You would rather keep cash for an emergency fund or higher-interest debt.
When paying cash is smarter
- You have the cash in savings earning less than the financing would cost after any promotion.
- You are already stretched with other debt.
- The payment would strain your budget every month.
What we do not do
- No higher price for financing. The price is the same whether you pay cash or finance.
- No in-house loans or liens. Financing is through established lenders.
- No hidden processing fees.
How to start
- Schedule a free written estimate.
- Compare Good, Better and Best with pay-in-full and monthly prices.
- Apply online if financing makes sense.
- Schedule the install once you are approved. Most replacements are done in one day.
Typical installed prices: AC $5,500 to $14,500, gas furnace $4,500 to $11,500, heat pump $7,500 to $16,500. See financing for details.
