Signs of a Possible AC Repair Scam
It isn’t always easy to tell if someone is trying to cheat you, but the pros at Arctic Air Conditioning know what to look for to avoid potential AC repair scams. Look out for:
- Little or no professional brochures or information available on their products, services, guarantees, or warranties
- Limited company information available – no website or a simple one-page site
- No proof of insurance or bonding
- No awards, accreditations, or recognitions in the industry
- No physical address – you should always be wary of a company that doesn’t have a physical address because they could disappear overnight
- Incredibly low prices – get quotes for your repair from multiple HVAC companies—if one comes up a lot lower than the others, you should throw it out
- High-pressure sales tactics – if the company or technician is trying really hard to scare you or persuade you to make a rash, immediate decision on your work, it’s possible they’re trying to scam you—take the time to get a second opinion
- Unable to provide references – if the company can’t provide references, this is a very bad sign
