Savvy home buyers know that some of the most important things to check are
the ones you don’t admire at first glance, such as the age of the roof, the
stability of the foundation, or, in this case, the condition of the home’s
HVAC system.
The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is a critical
component that is often overlooked, but it can directly impact your monthly
energy bills, air quality, and comfort in the home. And the reality is that
it’s one of the most expensive things to replace. If it breaks as soon as
you move in, brace yourself not only for an uncomfortable stay but also for
a steep out-of-pocket cost.
