0% APR for 5 Years

Reliable Heating, Air & Plumbing along with Trane have partnered to bring a never before offered financing plan to their customers. Same as cash no interest financing offers have been around for years, but they usually are for only 12 or 18 months and they have always accrued interest that was due and payable if a payment was one day late! Kinda a “got you” clause that in the past kept many from using these handy payment plans. If every payment was on time, they were a great tool to pay for a new heating & cooling system or a water heater over an extended period with no extra cost added on. But the downside of these offers was that if one did miss a payment, the “same as cash” aspect was stopped and interest was due back to the first day and the interest was always very high. You would end paying considerably more for the product. Not anymore with this new offer from Trane and Reliable Heating, Air & Plumbing. The new program, in which the consumer gets 60 months O% APR with no interest building up or accruing and if they are late on a payment, they aren’t penalized for the interest on they whole loan amount. If fact, they only get charged a small “late fee”. You can actually get up to 59 days late until you are penalized with additional costs other than the small late fee. This a great plan as it allow one 5 years to pay for a new Trane system that can cut utility cost in half or more. This actually allows the small monthly payments to be made by the savings generated by the new system. This type of offer has never been offered before in the world of furnaces and air conditioners, only in the automobile business.

It’s not just “routine” maintenance this time of year.

Now that warm weather has arrived, it is very important that your cooling system is checked to make sure it is operating at peak efficiency. If your system is low on refrigerant or coils are dirty, it can cost you hundreds of dollars more each year to cool your home. Make sure you do not waste your money operating a cooling system that is not operating at peak efficiency.

Two years ago when the tax credit program started, December 31, 2010 seemed so far down the road it would never come. Well, here we are at the end of one of the best deals we have seen and there is only a few months left to take advantage of the $1500 credit that has allowed millions of homeowners to replace old inefficient heating and cooling systems. There have been many negative reports in the media about the stimulus plan and its success or failure has been debated to death by the press and talk radio, but the positive side of this bill is the impact it has had on every average homeowner who had old worn out heating and cooling systems that needed upgraded. These people have been able to purchase top of the line super high efficiency heating and cooling systems for the same price as an entry level system. A very nice added feature to these new systems is a special thermostat that not only controls temperature but also controls and removes more humidity than a regular system. The increased moisture removal makes one feel more comfortable at higher temperatures saving cooling dollars.

There is an exciting new program from the gas company that will allow you to get a $1000 rebate and when combined with federal tax credits of $1500, earns a total of $2500 off the cost of a new heating and cooling system. This is almost half the cost of the entire system and when combined with the $1000 rebate now available from Trane, makes this the most lucrative time of the year to replace your old worn out furnace and air conditioner. This new program is called “Dump the Pump” .

Is there trouble in the attic of your home?

In the past two years, many homes in the Atlanta area have had new roofs installed due to the hail damage and storms that have hit us hard. With these new roofs came a very harmful side effect sold to the unsuspecting homeowner by roofing companies: a scorching hot attic. Most homes in Atlanta have a power assisted fan installed that exhausts hot air in the summer and keeps the temperature down in the attic which allows the air conditioning to work properly. The duct work in many homes is actually in the attic and by having proper ventilation, the air coming out of the vents can actually be 10 to 15 degrees cooler. Attics without these fans can approach 160 degrees in the middle of the afternoon.
