Chanhassen HVAC
Homes from the building boom
More Chanhassen homes were built in the 1990s than in any other decade, and the 1980s and 2000s each added nearly as many. Together those three decades account for about two in three homes in the city.
ENERGY STAR suggests considering replacement when an air conditioner or heat pump is more than 10 years old, or a furnace or boiler more than 15. A furnace or air conditioner installed when a home was built in 2009 or earlier is past both ages if it is still the original.
Age alone doesn't decide it. Tiger diagnoses the furnace or air conditioner first, repairs what is worth repairing, and gives a free estimate when replacement is the better choice.
Signs it may be time
Besides age, ENERGY STAR lists these signs that heating and cooling equipment may need replacing.
Frequent repairs, higher bills
The equipment keeps needing repairs while energy bills climb.
Rooms too hot or too cold
Some rooms never reach the temperature the rest of the house does.
Humidity problems
The house feels too damp in summer or too dry in winter.
A noisy system
The furnace or air conditioner is louder than it used to be.
Heating and cooling
About 85% of Chanhassen homes heat with natural gas and about 12% with electricity.
Furnaces
No heat, short cycling, or cold air from the vents. Tiger finds the cause, repairs what is worth repairing, and prices a replacement next to the repair when the furnace is near the end of its life.
Air conditioning
Central air that runs but doesn't cool, freezes up, or trips the breaker needs a diagnosis before anything is replaced. Tiger repairs, installs, and replaces central air conditioners.
Tune-ups
A spring air conditioner tune-up and a fall furnace tune-up, before each season's heavy use.
Heat pumps
A heat pump heats and cools with electricity. Tiger repairs, installs, replaces, and maintains them.
Chanhassen water
Hard water the city doesn't soften
Chanhassen pumps its water from eleven wells, 441 to 530 feet deep, and treats it at its East and West water treatment plants. The plants remove all but a trace of the iron and manganese but do not soften the water, which the city lists at 21 grains per gallon of hardness.
The city says most residents benefit from a home water softener, to deal with spots on dishes and calcium buildup on plumbing fixtures.
Tiger installs, repairs, and replaces water softeners, repairs and replaces water heaters, and handles leaks, fixtures, and drains.
