In my mind I would ask your situation- I mean things are going to break. Are you available to fix it? Do you have the knowledge to fix it? Do you want to fix it.

Most don’t ask for a home inspection- they aren’t that detailed. I think it’s more personal preference than anything. Don’t expect excellent service (it won’t happen) and don’t expect the highest quality contractor.

If your ac or heat is 20 years old or more you might want it just because things can go wrong and you might not want to drop 20k on a repair at that particular time and getting it ‘working ‘ is good enough.
In most cases the contractor isn’t installing a med gas system- they are unclogging an ac drain pipe, fixing a garbage disposal and replacing a light switch. None of which require a top tier contractor (again why people that have the time choose to do it themselves)
