If you’ve ever had to replace your furnace in the middle of a Michigan winter or your air conditioner during a summer heat wave, you’ve likely experienced higher HVAC pricing during peak season. It’s a common issue, and unfortunately, many HVAC companies take advantage of increased demand by raising their rates.
At VirHaac, we believe in doing things differently. Our virtual HVAC quote process helps you lock in a fair, fixed price—without the seasonal markups or sales pressure. Here’s why prices go up, and how you can avoid overpaying for your next furnace or AC installation.
Why HVAC Quotes Cost More in Summer and Winter
In Southeastern Michigan, the heating and cooling industry follows a predictable cycle. During the hottest months (June through August) and the coldest months (November through January), demand for HVAC service skyrockets. That’s when AC installation costs in summer and furnace installation costs in winter often reach their peak. Why? Because most homeowners wait until the last minute—when their system finally breaks down—and they need emergency service. This gives traditional HVAC companies the upper hand.
They often:
- Increase their prices due to limited technician availability
- Add overtime labor charges
- Prioritize high-paying emergency calls
- Push premium systems or unnecessary upgrades under pressure
- And yes, some may quote you one price over the phone… only to raise it once they’re on-site.
The Real Cost of Waiting Until Peak Season
Let’s say you know your furnace is 20+ years old or your AC hasn’t been keeping up. Waiting until it completely fails in January or July can mean longer wait times for replacement, fewer system options available , and worst of all—you’ll likely pay more just because it’s peak season. We see it happen all the time. HVAC quotes cost more in summer not because the equipment is different—but because the demand is high and your options are limited.
