FAQs
What does “transparent pricing” mean for your air-conditioning services in Cleveland?
Transparent pricing means the quote you receive is the exact amount you pay—no hidden fees, surprise labor add-ons, or inflated parts costs. We publish flat-rate price ranges for common AC repairs and installations, and every estimate is itemized so you can see the cost of equipment, materials, labor, permits, and tax before you approve the work.
How do you determine the cost of an air-conditioning repair or installation?
A certified technician performs a free on-site evaluation, diagnoses the issue, and measures your home’s load requirements. We then reference our flat-rate price book, which is standardized for the Cleveland market and updated quarterly to reflect current wholesale parts costs. The final figure factors in system size, SEER/SEER2 efficiency, refrigerant type, and any code-required accessories—never the neighborhood you live in or the time of year.
Are there overtime or emergency up-charges if my AC breaks down after hours or on weekends?
No. Because our pricing is flat-rate, you pay the same published price whether we arrive at 2 p.m. on a Tuesday or 10 p.m. on a Saturday. The only variable cost is the diagnostic fee, which is waived if you authorize the repair during the same visit.
What brands and system types do you service or install?
Our EPA-certified technicians are trained to work on all major residential and light-commercial brands, including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Daikin, and Bryant. We service and install central split systems, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, high-velocity systems, and smart thermostats. All new equipment comes with the full manufacturer’s warranty plus our 10-year labor guarantee.
Do you offer financing, rebates, or utility incentives for new AC systems in Cleveland?
Yes. We partner with multiple lenders to provide 0% APR plans for up to 18 months or low-interest options out to 120 months. We also handle paperwork for FirstEnergy Ohio and Dominion rebates, plus any applicable federal tax credits for high-efficiency heat pumps. All available incentives are shown as line-item discounts in your written quote so you know exactly how much you’re saving.
How can I keep my cooling costs down after installation?
We recommend enrolling in our Precision Comfort Plan. For a low, upfront price, you receive two seasonal tune-ups per year, priority scheduling, 15% off repairs, and annual filter replacements. Proper maintenance can lower energy consumption by up to 20%, extend equipment life, and preserve manufacturer warranties—important in Cleveland’s humid summers and sub-freezing winters.
