We asked question, we read reports and we checked references – not only for the different companies we were asking to give us a bid but also for the different models of furnaces. We discovered we wanted a Carrier furnace because they rated well and they would be less expensive to operate in the long run because their filters were less expensive then the other furnace manufacture we were looking at. In the end, we went with Climate Control because their bid was fair for the amount of work they would be doing and their bid was very detailed about where all the costs were coming from. Their crew also kept our house very clean and they were very professional but also just plain nice to work with. Plus (and a major plus at that) their referrals and also their ratings on the Energy Trust website were very good.

In a recent Angie’s List magazine, there was an article about projects that give the highest return on their investment. With the economy as it is, many people are choosing to renovate their current homes instead of moving. Or, people are finally able to afford a new home but need to pick updates for their home wisely. Which ever the situation, renovating or remodeling your home with the best return for your money is always smart no matter what the economy chooses to do.
