Rent Climate Equipment Now, Buy Your HVAC From Us — Get Up to $1,500 Back.

When your HVAC fails, you need bridge cooling today and a permanent solution as soon as possible. ERT One Call is the only Middle Tennessee provider that does both — and rewards you for choosing us for the long-term fix.

The Offer in Plain English

Rent climate equipment from us — spot coolers, dehumidifiers, heaters, whatever you need to keep your space running while you decide on a permanent solution.

Then, when you're ready to replace or upgrade your HVAC system, buy it from ERT One Call. We'll credit up to $1,500 of what you paid in rental costs against the new system.

No fine print. No catch. Just a smart way to bridge the gap between an emergency and a permanent fix.

How It Works

STEP 1 — RENT

Quick-response spot cooling equipment for commercial and industrial spaces.

STEP 2 — BUY

Within 90 days of starting your rental, you sign a contract with us to purchase and install a new HVAC system (minimum $7,500 installed).

STEP 3 — SAVE

We credit up to $1,500 of your rental costs against the HVAC purchase. Credit appears as a line item on your invoice. Simple as that.

What This Looks Like in Practice

Rooftop Failure

Rooftop Unit Failure at a Commercial Property

Your rooftop HVAC unit fails in July. ERT delivers an Emergency HVAC Failure Bundle within 4 hours — $745/month. After 2 months of bridge cooling ($1,490 total), you decide to replace the unit. ERT installs a new $12,000 system.

Extended Bridge

Homeowner Bridge Cooling

Your home HVAC fails in May. You rent a 1-ton spot cooler at $595/month while permits and contractor scheduling work themselves out. Month 3, you sign with us for a new $9,500 system.

Property Manager

Property Management Portfolio

You manage 25 properties. Three HVAC failures happen across the portfolio in one year. Each one triggers a rental, then an ERT-installed replacement system.

Why This Program Exists

Why We Built This

 

Most HVAC emergencies create the same impossible choice: rent expensive equipment for weeks while you wait for a permanent solution, then pay full price for the replacement on top of all the rental cost. By the end, you've spent thousands on something temporary AND thousands more on the permanent fix.

It doesn't have to work that way. Because ERT One Call does both rentals and HVAC sales, we can reward you for keeping the whole project in one place. Your rental isn't wasted money — it's a down payment on the permanent solution.

That's the difference between a national rental chain (who only rents) and a local HVAC contractor (who only sells systems). We do both. And this program is how we share that advantage with you.

FAQs

No. The credit only applies when you purchase your HVAC system with installation from ERT One Call. The whole point of the program is to make it easier for you to choose us for the permanent solution.
Rentals under 14 days don't qualify. The minimum exists to make sure customers who claim the credit have genuinely engaged with our rental service.
The credit applies only to HVAC purchases of $7,500 or more, installed. Smaller repairs and minor equipment purchases don't qualify, but call us — we may have other options.

No. The Rent-to-Own credit can't be stacked with HVAC purchase promotions, financing incentives, or other rebate offers. You pick the offer that gives you the best total value, and we'll help you compare.

The program requires a signed Acknowledgment at the time of rental delivery — so past rentals don't retroactively qualify. But going forward, every qualifying rental can be part of the program.

When you sign a contract to purchase your HVAC system from ERT, mention the Rent-to-Own credit. We'll verify your qualifying rental on file and apply the credit as a line item on your HVAC purchase invoice. Easy.

No annual limit on conversions. If you have multiple properties or multiple HVAC failures over time, each qualifying rental-to-purchase conversion earns its own credit.

Yes. Each qualifying conversion at each property earns its own credit. Property managers with multiple buildings can use the program multiple times.
