When you're searching for a company to repair your broken air conditioner, you want to make sure you go with the right company--one that is credible, reliable and has a great reputation. You'll want to be sure of a few things before trusting them to overhaul the air conditioning system in your home or business, such as:
1. Licensing information. Some sneaky business entrepreneurs may try to operate a legitimate company (this applies to all fields, not just air conditioning) without the proper credentials. For the safety of yourself and your family, make sure you go with a company who has all the necessary licensing up to date.
2. Written Estimates. Unfortunately, a person's handshake or verbal quote isn't as reliable as it used to be. To make sure you don't get burned, get a written estimate and assessment so there are few to no surprises once the work is complete. Companies who refuse to do so should signal a red light in your brain!
3. Warranty Information. Does a company stand by their work? If so, what are the terms? These are important things you'll want to know before they begin any work whatsoever.
4. Products. For the past 5 years, every company in the United States who sells residential air conditioners must offer products that have SEERs of at least 13. Energy star models must have SEERs of 14 at the minimum. This is an effective way to reduce power use, and you shouldn't be getting anything less.
