With the weather warming up, many people will be tempted to start their Air Conditioning unit for the season.  What most people don’t realize is that the air conditioner has been sitting idle for almost 7 months, and there is a lot of potential for rust and corrosion to damage some of the electrical components over that time period.  Before you start up your central A/C unit for the season, it’s best to have a safety check preformed by a professional HVAC Technician to ensure that everything is in proper working order and that your outside unit made it through the harsh winter weather unscathed.

For just $19.95, we will send one of our licensed and experienced HVAC Technicians to perform a full safety check on your Air Conditioner.  That means you can put your mind at ease, give your wallet a rest, and kick back and comfortably enjoy those hot summer days for less than $20!
