How To Look For An AC Repair Cape Coral FL Service

By Michelle Long


Summer will pretty much be around the corner in Florida and you will want to stay as cool and as comfortable as possible. This is especially true if you have elderly or children around who may be vulnerable to heat and hot weather. However, your air conditioning in on the blink at the moment and you will need a reliable ac repair Cape Coral FL service. If this is indeed the case then do read on for more information.

Before you choose just any service provider, do make yourself a little checklist first for your use. This checklist is very important and will assist you in arriving at an informed choice and decision. It will keep track of what needs to covered and done and also to remind you of what may have been missed.

The top thing that you need to have on your checklist is a warranty check on your cooling unit. Do check the exterior casing or body of your unit for any warranty stickers that may be there. If none exist, you may have to rummage through your old receipts. Once you have ascertained that the warranty is still very much valid, then there is really not that much to worry about. All you need will be to pick up the phone, call the nearest service center covering the warranty, and they will take care of the rest.

Should the warranty however be expired or no longer valid, then you will have to make one of two decisions. The first will be to buy a new unit altogether, and this is much recommended if the unit you have is older than five years. Buying a new unit will ensure a new warrantied unit plus one that is more energy efficient as well. When you do buy a new unit, do get one which has the highest energy rating possible. The other decision you can take is of course to have it repaired by a third party contractor or service.

Once you begin making inquiries to build up your prospective repair service provider list, start a little closer to home first. This means that you should begin asking your friends, colleagues and family first for their recommendations and suggestions. You can also do this with your workmates and neighbors as well. If this does not really work out for you, then you still have recourse to the internet. Check online and do search out forums related to the subject and ask members there. Ask them for their opinions and recommendations that will help you out.

Once you do have a respectable list of providers to choose from, do ask each one for a verifiable client list. A reputable and good service provider will not balk at providing you with such a list. Use this list to independently gauge their reputation and reliability.

Do also at this time ask for quotations for the job that needs to be done. Make sure that the quotations that they do give you are complete and does not just show labor costs only. It should always include labor and cost of materials. On top of this do inquire if the unit needs to be pulled out and brought somewhere else or if they can do the job on site.

It is also a wise move if you can ask for a service quality guarantee of some sort. In this way you are protected from a sloppy or haphazard job which will cause you further problems after a few days.
