HVAC Financing — Above & Beyond Air Conditioning & Heating
0% APR for up to 72 months through Wells Fargo, AC Credit Services, and FTL Finance. 90% typical approval rate. Soft-credit pre-qualification on-site.
Most full-system replacements in San Antonio land between $7,500 and $19,500 once ductwork, electrical, and attic access are added in. We work with three lenders so financing happens at your kitchen table, not on the phone with a stranger.
Pre-qualification is a soft credit pull, no score impact, and a decision in a few minutes. About nine in ten applicants are approved. Estimate, financing terms, and installation date are all settled in writing before any work starts.
Three Lenders We Work With
| Lender | Terms | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Wells Fargo (Home Projects) | 0% APR 6 to 72 months for qualified applicants. Soft-pull pre-qualification. Decision in minutes. | Standard residential installs $5,000 to $20,000. Strong rate options for credit scores in the high 600s and up. |
| AC Credit Services | HVAC-specific lender. Fast decisions, flexible documentation. | Customers who need more flexibility than bank-style underwriting offers. A strong second option for mid-credit profiles and those with thinner credit files. |
| FTL Finance | 0% APR promotional terms plus longer-term fixed-rate options. Works with a wider credit range. | Final option for subpar credit profiles that other lenders decline. Often clears mid-credit profiles that bank programs decline. |
What Financing Covers
Financing is built for project-sized invoices, not single-part repairs. The lenders roll equipment, labor, ductwork, and indoor-air-quality add-ons into one monthly payment.
New AC plus furnace install, typical range $7,500 to $19,500, depending on tonnage, brand tier, and attic or ductwork conditions.
Heat pump install for gas-averse households, all-electric new builds, and IRA-credit-eligible upgrades.
Furnace-only or AC-only replacement when the matched pair is still under warranty on the other side.
Whole-home duct replacement or sealing, $1,500 to $5,000, depending on attic access and return sizing.
Indoor air quality bundle: whole-home dehumidifier, REME Halo or Apco, Aprilaire media filter, UV light, and smart thermostat.
Commercial RTU replacement, light-commercial rooftop units up to 25 tons.

How to Apply
Pre-qualify before the in-home estimate, or at the kitchen table. Both paths take a few minutes and use a soft credit pull.
What you need:
Government-issued ID for the primary applicant.
Household income figure, gross annual. Self-employment income is fine; the lenders ask for a 12-month average.
Address of the home being financed. Owner-occupied and rental properties both qualify with different lenders.
Co-applicant information if you want a joint application. Co-applicants often unlock better rates.
What happens after you apply:
Soft credit pull, decision in a few minutes, no impact to your score.
Approved terms presented in writing alongside the equipment quote. You decide which lender and term to accept.
Install scheduled 24 to 72 hours after sign-off. First payment is typically 30 to 45 days after install.
Discounts That Reduce What You Finance
Eligible discounts are applied to the written quote first, then financing terms are calculated against the reduced total, which means a lower monthly payment and smaller total interest exposure.
| Who Qualifies | Repair Discount | Install Discount |
|---|---|---|
| Active-duty military and veterans | 10% | 5% |
| Senior 55 and older | 10% | 5% |
| First responder, police, EMS, fire | 10% | 5% |
| Hospital and healthcare staff | 10% | 5% |
| Teacher and school staff | 10% | 5% |
| Repeat customer | 10% | 5% |
Frequently Asked Questions
Will applying hurt my credit score?
No. Pre-qualification is a soft pull on all three lenders. A hard inquiry happens only after you accept terms and sign the contract for the install. By that point the soft-pull decision has already told us the answer.
What credit score do I need?
Wells Fargo programs lean toward high 600s and above for the strongest 0% APR terms. AC Credit Services works with mid-credit and thin-file profiles that need more flexibility. FTL Finance is the final option for subpar credit or self-employed applicants that other lenders decline.
How fast can the install happen after financing is approved?
Most full-system replacements happen 24 to 72 hours after sign-off. Heat-vulnerable households, including elderly residents, infants, and those with medical equipment, are prioritized for same-day or next-day install.
Can I pay off the loan early without penalty?
Yes on all three lenders. Interest is deferred during the 0% APR promotional window. Paying the balance off before that window closes keeps the loan at zero interest. The lender disclosures spell out the deferred-interest mechanics.
What if I do not qualify?
Two paths usually work. Add a co-applicant, such as a spouse, adult child, or parent, which often unlocks a different lender. Or scale the scope: defer the IAQ bundle to a later phase, or run the existing system one more season while credit recovers.
