Frequently Asked Questions
How long has Cathcart been in business?
Cathcart Services has served the Decatur area since 1978, which puts the company at nearly five decades on Veterans Drive SE. The tenure spans multiple HVAC equipment generations from early central AC through current high-efficiency variable-speed systems, and the institutional knowledge shows up most on diagnostic work for aging systems where the original installer's choices matter for repair decisions.
What brands does Cathcart represent?
Cathcart Services is an authorized dealer for Trane, Bryant, American Standard, Carrier, and Lennox. Carrying five major brands is unusual for a shop the size of Cathcart, and it's part of why customers comparing replacement quotes can pick from a wider range of equipment options without changing contractors based on which brand they ultimately select.
What's a Carrier Factory Authorized Dealer?
Carrier Factory Authorized Dealer is Carrier's top-tier dealer designation, which Cathcart Services holds. The credential requires additional training and process certifications for installation, repair, and maintenance beyond the baseline authorized dealer level, and it supports the longer warranty terms Carrier extends through Factory Authorized Dealers compared to standard dealer channels.
Where is Cathcart located?
Cathcart Services operates from 2113 Veterans Drive SE in Decatur. The Veterans Drive SE location keeps the shop on the southeast side of the city with quick access to Beltline Road and the residential neighborhoods on the south and east sides, which is where most of the company's residential service work clusters.
Does Cathcart handle commercial HVAC?
Cathcart Services runs commercial HVAC alongside its residential work. Commercial systems differ in size, refrigerant types, and control schemes from residential equipment, and Cathcart's authorized dealer relationships with Trane, Carrier, and American Standard cover the commercial side of those manufacturers' equipment lines in addition to their residential offerings.
Does Cathcart do indoor air quality?
Cathcart Services handles indoor air quality work as part of its HVAC service catalog. The IAQ scope includes high-efficiency filtration, UV systems, and humidifiers integrated with the existing HVAC equipment rather than as standalone add-ons, which keeps the air-handling and humidity control on the same thermostat and service contract as the rest of the system.
