Debra - Palm Desert, CA 92211
Lacking communication
We lost cooling from a 4.5 year old AV/heat pump due to a leak that developed in a copper pipe in the compressor. Despite mfg. 10 year warrantee we were charged a total of approx. $2,000 to locate the leak, repair it and to recharge with a full amount of refrigerant. The price was quite a shock and the pain was not lessened any by good explanation or preparation by Alex. He worked efficiently but was much more eager to get my credit card signature than to provide a decent explanation for the high cost.
