The AC world is changing. In fact, the whole world is changing. The AC business is no different. New technologies, Freons, motors, compressors, labor force, taxes, warranties and more importantly laws and regulations. We prepared this information to highlight a few changes affecting us today.
Recently I received a call for an estimate on a heat pump replacement for a park model home. The gentleman mentioned to me that we had installed it over 20 years ago and he hadn't serviced it ever since. So the new one should last just as long, right?
If I was a HVAC sales man only, I would have said, "Yes sir, this heat pump will offer years of trouble free life." But, I am not an HVAC salesman. I wish I was. I'm a HVAC technician. Like George Washington, I can not lie. I got to mention that nothing made today is as heavy duty or as strong as yesterday.
Air Conditioners and heat pumps breakdown every day. Look at all the a/c trucks running around your town day and night. They are most likely fixing or maintaining air conditioners.
That's why real a/c techs always talk about warranty, warranty, warranty. In the event of a component failure, most manufacturers provide warranty when the installers properly registers the equipment.
Come by my shop, ask the office personnel about our warranty process and compare the over 20 year old Coleman heat pump outside my shop with its new replacement.
IMPORTANT POINTS ON AC WARRANTY:
Our estimates are FREE on replacement or installation. "A visit to your home allows our designers to provide you a more accurate estimate and gives us the opportunity to understand our customer needs."
There will be an $85.00 diagnostic fee on all cooling or heating service calls.
