3 Tips for Active Adults

In this video, you will find some helpful tips on what to watch out for when getting an estimate from a heating and air conditioning contractor.

  • False pictures – The homeowner is shown pictures of another unit or attic and are lead to believe it is their own.
  • Being told there is a cracked heat exchanger, which can be a serious problem – Homeowners are again shown false pictures of a cracked heat exchanger and told it is their home.
  • Sabotage – This could involve removing a fuse or shutting the system down and then telling the homeowner that the unit won’t power on and needs to be fixed.

These are a few of the most common ways homeowners can be misled when receiving an estimate.  If you feel like an estimate you have received may not be correct, please call us at (916) 864-3483.  We will send a Certified Technician out to give you a second opinion at no charge.
