The Myth...
Ever seen those maintenance deals that just looked too good to be true. You know those internet coupons, tv commercials, and mail outs that say things like, "total system maintenance for $39.00". Let's clear up the myth, but before we do lets state one fact. There are good HVAC contractors out there, but sometimes in an effort to stay competitive they have to mislead you a little. We have chosen not to do this and we believe that by educating you, the customer, everyone wins.
The Facts...
Preventative maintenance is one of the least profitable services a company can offer to you, but it is a necessity to provide good system operation and maintain the highest efficiency of the unit. It costs a properly licensed and bonded company an average of $37.50 to get a professionally trained technician to your home. Once there, the technician will spend an hour or better to adequately maintenance each system in your home. Given this, plus the cost of chemicals, misc small items such as wire terminals, cleaning rags, and nitrogen the cost to the company can quickly reach $80.00 to $90.00. Most reputable companies provide this service for around $100.00.
That being said, if you choose the company that charges $39.00, $49.00, of even $59.00 for this service, that company now has two choices.
- The first choice is to provide the service and take a loss for the company. You think that company would stay in business long?
- The second choice is to always find something wrong with your unit or push the sale of an item that you may not need.
So, as you can see, what was once a great attempt to try and earn your business has now put an otherwise good company into the position of having to mislead you.
We have chosen not to do business this way and we want you to feel comfortable knowing that we have no ulterior motive when we show up at your home. We will provide a full maintenance service, leave you with a smile and guarantee a very efficient system. You can also take comfort in knowing that none of our employees are commission based.
