Freedom Heating & Cooling

In 2003, Freedom Heating and Cooling was established by John Johnson, a 35-year veteran of the HVAC industry. Freedom has remained family owned and operated ever since, now being run by Johnson's son. Over the years, it has grown to encompass a trained & professional staff of 25 members, but we strive to maintain our small business feel by treating every single customer as a top priority. Freedom currently serves the Greater Birmingham and Huntsville areas and surrounding counties of Tuscaloosa, St. Clair, Walker, Chilton, Shelby, Madison, Morgan, Blount, Cullman and Jefferson.

Today's furnaces have improved in each aspect - from form to function to efficiency. Newer gas furnaces actually can save a homeowner up to 50 percent in operating costs over a furnace that's 10+ years old. Today's furnaces feature minimum AFUE ratings (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) of 80 percent or more (some top-of-line models have AFUE ratings of up to 97 percent). In short - the furnace you buy today will be highly energy-efficient, cost-effective, and is likely to last quite a while. Whatever your needs, rest assured the experts at Freedom will work with you to determine the best type of furnace for your home.

Throughout the year, your furnace and heating system have a large role to play - it not only keeps you warm, but it regulates the temperature and circulates air regularly. The experts at Freedom Heating and Cooling know that it's important to make sure your heater is working properly at all times, to keep your air not only moving, but to make sure it's clean and safe for you and your family. All of our labor services are warranted for 30 days. If you have a problem within 30 days of service, there will be no charge to come back out and diagnose the problem.

Heat pump systems are a great all-around investment because they perform double-duty, not only heating your home but cooling it as well. These all-in-one, electricity-powered systems use evaporator and condenser coils. During the Alabama summer the heat pump's evaporator coil cools your home's air, while in winter the condenser coil heats it. Since heat pump systems run exclusively on electricity we'll help you understand that impact and how a properly installed heat pump will provide you and your family with years of comfort.

When the time comes to invest in a new home comfort system, you may find yourself feeling overwhelmed by all the options on the market.

As we all know it can get pretty hot here in Alabama, but during the winter, northern Alabama can be prone to freezing, uncomfortable temperatures. The last thing you want during a cold winter night is for your old system to break down, leaving you in the cold until repairs can be made. If your heating system is older than 10 years or frequently malfunctioning it may be near the end of its lifespan. Replacing it with a newer, more efficient heating unit will save you money on energy costs, improve your home's indoor air quality and reduce the chances of surprise malfunctions.

And while your air conditioning system does a pretty good job combating this, there are other tools you can use to be even more effective.
