FAQ

Questions, answered straight

Can't find what you're looking for? Our friendly team is happy to help.

(574) 633-4557
Do you offer 24/7 emergency service?

Yes. Plumbing and HVAC emergencies don't wait for convenient times. We offer 24/7 emergency service for urgent issues like burst pipes, no heat in winter, water heater leaks or a complete AC failure in hot weather.

Are you licensed and insured?

Absolutely. We hold Indiana HVAC license CO19900013 and Indiana plumbing license PC19700254, and we're fully licensed, bonded and insured for residential and commercial work. We're also members of the Granger Business Association with an A+ BBB rating.

Do you provide free estimates?

Yes — free estimates on equipment installations and major repairs. For diagnostics and minor repairs there may be a service call fee, which is often applied toward the work performed. Transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden fees.

What makes Cavinder different?

We're Granger's only Mitsubishi Diamond Contractor, which means higher standards for training, customer service and technical expertise. We're built on honesty, integrity and transparent pricing — we never push unnecessary services.

How often should my HVAC system be serviced?

Twice a year — once in the spring for cooling and once in the fall for heating. Regular maintenance prevents costly breakdowns, improves efficiency and extends equipment life. A Cavinder Shield plan keeps you on schedule automatically.

What should I do if my water heater is leaking?

Turn off the water supply to the unit immediately and call us for emergency service. Depending on where it's leaking it may be a simple fix or a sign replacement is needed — either way, don't ignore small leaks. They tend to get worse quickly.

How long does a new HVAC installation take?

A typical furnace or air conditioner replacement takes 1–2 days. Installations involving ductwork changes or multiple units can take longer — we'll give you a clear timeline during your consultation.

What are the benefits of a ductless mini-split?

Room-by-room temperature control, whisper-quiet operation, and up to 40% better efficiency than traditional central air. They're ideal for homes without ductwork, additions, or rooms that never feel right.

How can I improve my home's indoor air quality?

Change filters regularly, consider higher-efficiency filters, add air purifiers or UV lights to your HVAC system, maintain proper humidity with a humidifier or dehumidifier, and make sure ductwork is clean and sealed. We'll assess your home and recommend what actually helps.
