As an Heating as well as A/C salesperson I try to find the system that best suits the needs of my customers.
I want them to return to me in the future if they want to replace or replace something so I try to receive their loyalty by offering the best system I can right off the bat, right now I am actually pushing a variable speed system for most people.
My reasoning for this has a lot to do with savings on energy costs. If I can assure them that they will save significantly in that section then they are going to be able to afford a more overpriced model too plus that is a win for me. Even though I am looking for a commision I honestly do want to save my customers money in the long run. When I am explaining to the buyer what a variable speed system is I try to put it into language that they will understand. I do this by comparing it to the cruise control in their cars. A variable speed Heating as well as A/C system allows your component to maintain a constant temperature more efficiently. Just like the cruise control in your car allows you to save gas, wear plus tear of the vehicle plus worry by only accelerating plus slowing down on its own, a variable speed Heating as well as A/C component does this for your heating plus cooling system. Traditional units run at full speed for a short time, shut off for a bit plus then do the same thing over plus over again. A variable speed component will maintain the temperature throughout the time a sensor will allow it to adjust the speed instead of consistently turning on plus off. It is like having cruise control for your Heating as well as A/C system plus my customers tend to cherish that idea.
