About Quality Installation Verification (QIV)

QIV is a COOL SMART way to ensure quality and energy savings!

Quality Installation Verification (QIV) service now available for any residential central AC system, new installations as well as existing equipment, regardless of efficiency through a growing number of participating contractors. COOL SMART verifies the results.

Include QIV in your HVAC installation to benefit from:

  • Increased system efficiency and lower operating expenses
  • Fewer repairs and longer equipment life expectancy
  • Improved dehumidification and a higher level of comfort

    Easy Four Step QIV Process

    1. The QIV analysis checks for proper refrigerant charge and air flow of the central air conditioner or heat pump systems. A COOL SMART trained air-conditioning technician tests the system while it's running and takes a series of measurements.
    2. The results are analyzed instantly via computer.
    3. Needed adjustments are made.
    4. Within a few minutes, you'll know how your system is performing. You will receive a confirmation report from COOL SMART by mail which:
      • Verifies your system has been properly tested and adjusted for refrigerant charge and airflow
      • Reports on any adjustments and/or repairs needed and made
      • Shows the impact of the service and the quality benefits of the program
