Tips To Follow Before Air Conditioning Repair

In this article we are going to list practical tips that you should follow before any repair of your air conditioning. Nowadays there are many technicians and installers who advertise on the Internet or other places to repair your air conditioning, but not all of them are trustworthy and you can get scared. For this reason it is important that you know the advice that we are going to give you so that you do not have any problems when choosing a good technician to repair your air conditioning. We are going to explain what you should take into account when your air conditioning breaks down and you need to repair it.

Can you repair the air conditioner yourself?

It is important to know that the best thing to do is to contact a professional to solve any type of problem and thus avoid having more serious breakdowns or accidents. In any case, there are times when we have some basic knowledge of work on construction sites or this type of service. We can try to solve the problem of the broken air conditioner ourselves. To do this, the first thing you should do is check if the fault is easy to fix or not. It may be that the filters are dirty, that the drain is blocked or simply that there is no electricity to the air conditioner. At Heating And Air Experts we have written an article on how to solve problems with an air conditioner . Take a look at it before calling any technician.

Air conditioning under warranty?

The second thing you need to check is whether the air conditioner is within the warranty period, for which you will need the purchase invoice. Once you have confirmed that you are within the warranty period and that it is not a problem other than a factory defect, such as no electricity, dirty filters or, for example, a small gas leak in the refrigeration lines that causes a loss of pressure and therefore the air conditioner stops working, you must contact your seller to start a warranty intervention process. Therefore, we always recommend that before requesting the warranty, you confirm with your installer that the problem is with the air conditioner, that is, a factory defect. This is very important, because if the problem is not with the machine, the technical service will charge for the time and travel spent to go and check the machine.

Contact the installer who installed your air conditioning

As we mentioned before, it is important to contact a good technician, so it may be a good idea to try to contact the installer who carried out the installation work before looking for a technician we do not know to repair your air conditioning. Therefore, he will be the one who best knows the installation and its circumstances, and will be able to give you more direct attention and solve the problem more quickly.

In the event that he cannot help you for any reason, it is a good idea to ask a trusted contact for the contact of any installer provided they give you good references. You can even ask any neighbour to make sure that the installer is from the area and save yourself from paying excessive travel costs. However, as we will explain later, ask for a quote and compare with others.

Compare multiple quotes

If you need a technician, it is always very important to compare quotes to see if they are in line with the general costs of that type of repair or if the technician is trying to take advantage for whatever reason. Sometimes technicians or installers have a lot of work and their prices increase significantly, so it is interesting to know who is willing to make a good quote and, above all, avoid someone who is overwhelmed and will present a very high quote.

It is important that you clearly establish deadlines. Sometimes, and especially during campaigns from May to August, technicians have a lot of work and deadlines can be too long. Therefore, when closing the contract, it is important to make sure that they will meet the deadlines we have in mind.
