FAQs
How does your transparent pricing policy work for air-conditioning services in Greenback?
Before we touch a wrench, you know the exact dollar amount youâll pay. When our technician arrives, they perform a full diagnostic and present you with a printed menu of repair or replacement optionsâincluding parts, labor, tax, and any rebatesâso you can pick what fits your budget. Once you approve an option, the price is locked in; even if the job takes longer or requires extra trips, the number on that form is the number on your final invoice.
What factors influence the final cost of an air-conditioning repair?
Prices vary mainly by (1) the component that failedâcapacitors and contactors are inexpensive, while compressors and evaporator coils cost more; (2) system size and refrigerant typeâ410A systems cost less to recharge than discontinued R-22 units; (3) accessibilityâan attic air handler takes longer to service than one in a garage; and (4) warranty coverageâif parts are under manufacturer warranty, you pay only labor. We itemize each of these variables on the quote so you can see where every dollar goes.
Do you charge a diagnostic or trip fee in Greenback, and is it included in the quote?
Yes. We have an $89 flat diagnostic fee inside our normal service radius, which includes all of Greenback and surrounding ZIP codes. That fee covers travel, system evaluation, and written estimates. If you proceed with any recommended repair the same day, we credit the $89 toward the approved work, so you never pay it twice.
Are there any hidden fees or overtime charges I should expect?
No. The upfront price we quote already includes after-hours labor, disposal fees, taxes, and environmental charges for refrigerant recovery if they apply. Because emergencies donât wait for business hours, we charge the same rate 24/7âno weekend, holiday, or "after 5 p.m." premiums. The only time your cost changes is if you choose to add additional work that wasnât on the original quote.
How quickly can you install or replace an air conditioner in Greenback, and what will it cost?
Most standard split-system replacements are completed within one day once equipment is on site. If we need to order a specialty unit, lead time is typically 3â5 business days. For planning purposes, a high-efficiency 2- to 3-ton heat-pump system for a 1,600-sq-ft home in Greenback runs $7,200â$9,000 fully installed, while budget models start around $5,400. Your quote will list equipment brand, efficiency rating (SEER2), labor, permits, and 10-year parts & compressor warranty information.
Do you offer maintenance plans, and how do they save me money?
Absolutely. Our Peak Performance Plan is $169 per year and includes two precision tune-ups (spring cooling and fall heating), priority same-day service, 15% off all repairs, and zero diagnostic fees while enrolled. Regular maintenance lowers utility bills up to 15%, extends equipment life, keeps manufacturer warranties valid, and reduces the likelihood of costly emergency breakdownsâall while giving you predictable, transparent annual HVAC expenses.
