FINDING THE RIGHT AIR CONDITIONING REPAIR SERVICE

AIR CONDITIONING A NECESSITY In many parts of the country, air conditioning is not just a

luxury, but a necessity. When the temperature climbs past 90 degrees and the air

is sticky and humid, trying to live without air conditioning can seem impossible.

WHAT IF YOUR AC STOPS WORKING? If your AC stops working, you need to find a good

air conditioning repair service right away before your home becomes unlivable.

HIRING THE RIGHT COMPANY However, finding the right firm to fix your broken air

conditioning unit can be tricky. You need to make sure that you hire a company that is

going to provide fast and reliable service.

AVOID THE LONG WAIT The last thing that you want is to wait around for days for

the repair technician to arrive.

BEST OPTION FOR SERVICE In many cases, calling the same company that originally

installed your air conditioner is the simplest solution. Since they installed your AC in the first place, you can

feel confident that they will be familiar with it and will have the necessary parts on hand.

However, this is not always an option, in which case you will have to find another company.

CHECK OUT REFERENCES One place to start looking is by talking to your friends or

neighbors. Since many other people will also have air conditioners

that have needed repairs, ask around to find out which air conditioning repair service they have used.

ARE THEY HAPPY? Were they happy with the work that was done? How much did it cost and how long did it take?

GATHER IDEAS Having someone that you know and trust recommend a

repair service gives you a good starting point. However, you should not base your decision on the

advice of a single person. Use this as a way to come up with a few ideas before you

make any phone calls.

GATHER YOUR DOCUMENTS Write down as much information as you can about your

air conditioner and the problems that you are experiencing before you call anyone.

The more details you can give the repair service, the more accurate their estimate of the cost of the work will be.

A vague description of the problem means that they will give you a vague estimate.

GET A WRITTEN ESTIMATE Make sure that you get a written estimate before you let

anyone start working on your AC. If the technician discovers unexpected problems, have

him update the estimate with the new cost before he does any more work. You need to have as much information as possible before making a decision.

ESTABLISH YOUR BUDGET After all, you do not want to spend more on fixing your air

conditioner than it would cost to buy a new unit. In some cases, it can actually be cheaper and easier to

just replace the unit entirely. Be sure to consider all of your options so that you can

make the right decision for your budget.

PREPARATION IS THE KEY Finding a good air conditioning repair service can take

some time, but doing so is definitely worth it. Staying cool and comfortable on a hot summer day

makes your life much more pleasant. When your air conditioner goes on the fritz, call the repair

service immediately.
