Selecting a Contractor

Selecting a reliable contractor is more important than the brand of equipment you choose. Because no matter how well made a furnace or water heater is, the comfort, reliability and energy efficiency of your HVAC (heating, ventilating and air conditioning) equipment is dependent on the company doing the installation properly. Washington Gas has made this process simple. Just call us at 703-941-HEAT or toll-free 888-941-HEAT to find a qualified natural gas contractor. We've outlined some tips below to help you with the contractor selection process.

The Contractor Should:

  • Survey your home and provide a heat-load calculation so that the equipment is properly sized.
  • Provide a written proposal outlining the price and the work to be done.
  • Ask about any heating or cooling problems you've experienced and offer solutions.
  • Provide more than one choice for each type of equipment to be purchased.
  • Offer an extended service agreement including maintenance inspections.
  • Be professional, courteous and prompt.
