About DeFuniak Springs

DeFuniak Springs is the Walton County seat, on I-10 about 30 miles east of Crestview around its round spring-fed lake, and CHELCO has its headquarters here. Inland, the pattern is Crestview's: hot afternoons and cold winter nights. About 36% of housing here is manufactured homes and 91% of occupied homes heat with electricity (Census ACS), so heat pumps and packaged units are common. If you are a CHELCO member replacing an electric furnace in a manufactured home, ask about its $400 per ton heat pump rebate before you buy.

Questions

Do you cover all of DeFuniak Springs?

Yes, including ZIPs 32433, 32435. Your callback company double-checks that they cover your address.

How fast can someone come out?

It depends on the day and the season, and right after a storm it can take longer. Say in your request if the house has no cooling and someone at home is elderly or unwell, and ask the company what they can do.

Do I get a price first?

Yes. The technician diagnoses the problem and gives you a price before starting any repair. Ask what the diagnostic or trip fee is when you book.
