Know Your HVAC Units
Looking for the perfect HVAC system for your business? Meyer’s Companies has a complete suite of premium air conditioning and heating units to serve customers in the Griffith, Valparaiso, Lowell, and Porter County area. Find out how to choose your perfect HVAC system today.
Air Conditioning Options
Air conditioning is most prevalent in areas of the country where temperatures are likely to rise to above 85 degrees. If you live in an area where heat of this degree is unlikely, you may not need a central air conditioning system. For mild cooling purposes, a heat pump might fit your needs. However, individuals with asthma or allergies may wish to have central air installed in their home because of its filtering and “conditioning” qualities.
Know the Size You Need
It’s easy to see why you wouldn’t want a system that’s too small to heat your house. However, installing a system that’s too large for your house also leads to lower efficiency. A system with an oversize energy load will cycle on and off too frequently, which means that it won’t reach peak operating temperature and will use up more energy then is necessary.
When you’re about to install a new system, be sure that your HVAC contractor can help you calculate the size of the heating system you need. You’ll need to determine the heating load, based on your home’s size and shape, insulation, and the local climate.
Invest in Quality
For an HVAC system that will keep you warm and cool when you need it for years to come, price should be no object. You don’t always need to choose the most expensive HVAC system, but make sure that you’re paying for quality once you find the system with the heating load you need. It’s especially important to get a long warranty. They may cost more initially, but a furnace with a twenty-year warranty is a promise of quality from the manufacturer as well as a good investment in case of malfunction.
Buy Local
It’s not just about keeping local businesses open. Sophisticated, complex modern air conditioners and heating appliances require routine checkups and maintenance by technicians who are familiar with the installation process and design of the appliance. If your HVAC contractor is coming from a long ways away, it may be more difficult to schedule maintenance appointments or make an emergency service call. Be sure that your equipment is sold and installed by a company that’s able to come out to your home or business easily in case of an emergency situation.

I have used Meyer's several times for both plumbing and electrical work. The technicians are skilled, professional and friendly. It's a comfort to know that any issue I have will be handled correctly. They are also very responsive in terms of a quick turnaround time which is great! All the employees deserve a big hand. Very well my latest issue was a root problem that went all the way out to the alley. Water was backing up in the basement. The plumber handled it quickly and without issue.

Got a new water heater, was installed in about 2 hours and they did great work. Pricing was good too. I would definitely be calling them for any other work.

New AC & installed zoning. Few challenges with the install but in the end, they fixed the problem. Would hire again.

Great Prices, Great Work! They have installed a new central air unit and a now a new furnace along with new ductwork. Very happy with their work and especially with the prices. We got many quotes and they beat everyone by quite a bit. We'll be using them in the future as well!!

Heating and A/C. I really don’t know about the price, I guess compared with what I’ve seen on television, advertised prices. This is the first time we’ve had central air. They have good quality service.
Happy Customer -
I've used them a couple of times now for heating, air-conditioning and plumbing. Prompt service with call-ins before they arrive. Replaced my entire HVAC system and they did a professional job. Had an issue with the A/C unit where it turned on anytime the furnace turned on, but they came back the next day and fixed it. Would definitely recommend them for any work they do.
