“Came out within 24 hours to give us a quote and came out 2 days later to install an all new HVAC system. Salesman and techs were very nice to work with, will recommend to my friends!”
— Charleigh Pabst
Billy Dilger, HVAC Full Install
“Had a new air conditioner and furnace installed recently. Billy Dilger & team did a great job, they were professional, showed up on time, and got everything set up smoothly. The system is running well so far, and I’m happy with how everything turned out. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing HVAC work.”
— Susan Keys
Billy Dilger, HVAC Full Install
The initial consultation was perfect. After researching forums and gathering numerous quotes, Five Star/Pickerington Heating & Cooling stood out immediately. Josh exceeded my expectations with a thorough home assessment, guiding me through options, pricing, financing, and what to expect during installation and beyond. I canceled my other quotes on the spot. Installation by Alex and William was on time, seamless, and professional while I worked from home. They were polite, knowledgeable, and patient. I’m proud of my new units, relieved the process is complete, and confident I chose the right company.
— Cristeen Gier
Alex Lee, HVAC Full Install
“Floyd and Anthony were amazing installers! Very respectful and left the work site clean and looking better than they found it. Thank you!”
— Gregg Ryder
Floyd McDuffie, HVAC Full Install
“Everything about my experience was positive. Nathan was friendly and knowledgeable, and made the decision/purchase process as easy and stress free as I could ask for. My system was installed by Brandon the very next day. Brandon was quick, clean and quiet. Everything was completed in one day and the system was up and running in time for dinner. I highly recommend Five Star. We had a few other quotes from other companies in the area, and while Five Star wasn’t the cheapest option, I felt the most comfortable with them and the product they sell is top notch.”
— Tom Kelly
Brandon Kern, HVAC Full Install
“I wanted a whole house humidifier. They got it installed the next day at a very reasonable cost. The installer, Matt, was on time, friendly, efficient and gave great explanations for how it all works and he answered any questions I had. I like supporting local businesses and this company made that very easy.”
— Barbara
Matt Anderson, IAQ Install
“Scott was great. He was on-time and professional. Got the job done quick and clean. The new in humidifier on the furnace is wonderful. If you have an overly dry home this is well worth the cost!”
— Barbara
Scott Peterson, IAQ Install
“Good communication! Eddie did a wonderful job! Our blower motor was fried. Eddie made a number of great suggestions which considered and then accepted. Eddie is a standout for your company! He is personable, thorough and professional. We enjoyed having him in our home and were very happy that Five Star was able to get to us today!! Our furnace is once again working fine. We are Five Star customers for as long as we need your services! Thank you!”
— Ben North

“Mitch was the best service call I have ever had (and we have had many over the years). He was respectful, knowledgeable, and thorough, even informed me of other services the company provides. This was our first experience with Five Star Home Services and we will definitely use them again.”
— Kristy
Mitch Jessup, HVAC Service Call
“Mike came out to do a safety inspection for us on the furnace. As he started doing research on our furnace and found out it has not been serviced since we had it installed about 3 years ago. So I asked if he had time to do a full blown checkup. He made arrangements to do the checkup, made a couple recommendations and even cleaned out the chipmunk that met his demise by crawling in the make up air pipe and couldn’t make his way back out. Great guy, very personable. Even figured out that our new NEST thermostat wasn’t working properly.”
— Greg Rice
Mike Brown, HVAC Safety Inspection

Everything You Need To Know About HVAC Installation
You’ve got questions? We’ve got answers!
The appropriate HVAC system size depends on factors like your home’s square footage, insulation quality, number of windows, and local climate. An HVAC professional can perform a load calculation to determine the optimal size, ensuring efficient operation and comfort.
The cost varies based on the system type, home size, and installation complexity. On average, installing a new HVAC system can range from $7,000 to $18,000. Obtaining detailed quotes from reputable HVAC contractors is advisable for accurate pricing.
A standard HVAC installation typically takes one to three days. The exact duration depends on the system’s complexity, the condition of existing ductwork, and unforeseen challenges during installation.
With regular maintenance, modern HVAC systems usually last between 15 to 20 years. Factors such as usage patterns, maintenance frequency, and environmental conditions can influence system longevity.
Many HVAC companies offer financing plans to help manage the cost of a new system. It’s beneficial to discuss financing options with your chosen contractor to find a plan that suits your budget.
While it’s possible to replace only one component, it’s generally recommended to replace both simultaneously to ensure system compatibility, efficiency, and to take advantage of warranty benefits.
