As a homeowner who’s dealt with HVAC issues, you may have been told that your home comfort equipment needs to be replaced or, while it could hold out for a while longer, will need extensive repairs in order to do so. However, you might sometimes find yourself doubting the price quoted to you. In such instances, it’s always a good idea to seek a second opinion from an expert contractor before spending a great deal of money on repairs or replacement services. Here American Refrigeration Heating and Air Conditioning Co., Inc. discusses when you should do this.
It still has a lot of life left in it. If you’ve been informed that your current furnace or air conditioning system needs to be replaced, seeking a second opinion makes sense. Having another set of HVAC professionals look into your situation will help confirm whether or not it really does need to be repaired or replaced. You should do this if the last years of your home comfort equipment are still quite a ways off and the recommendation to have it replaced comes as a surprise.
They offer special pricing for only one day. While signing up for an HVAC repair or replacement service to take advantage of a low price that’s only good for one day might seem like a good idea, the low bid might be too good to be true. This is a sales tactic that forces you to sign up immediately without any second thoughts to get the special deal. If this happens to you, make sure to seek a second opinion and compare prices. Here at American Refrigeration Heating and Air Conditioning Co., Inc., we’ll always give you time to think about our pricing and never pressure you or rush you into making a decision.
Your unit suddenly needs new parts. A 10-year-old HVAC system may not always require a replacement part or component, especially if it’s still running like a charm. But if your technician tells you to get one for your system, it’s good to get a second opinion. Sometimes, you’ll find that you do need this new part, but some companies just use this as an attempt to sell their product. Either way, it’s good to find out what a different technician has to say just to confirm.
Seeking second opinions can be incredibly valuable, especially for an important home appliance like your heating and cooling equipment. If you’re worried about a previous recommendation from a different technician about your HVAC system, let our experts at American Refrigeration Heating and Air Conditioning Co., Inc. check it out for you.
