  1. How long have you been in business? An experienced company with long-term employees is usually a good one.
  2. Is your company insured? Any professional that works in your home should carry liability insurance to guard you in the case of accidental damage or injury.
  3. What kinds of licenses and certifications do your technicians have? A truly professional AC repair company will require their professionals to be licensed, certified, and require ongoing education and training of their technicians to keep them up-to-date with industry trends and developments.
  4. Do you have any references you can provide? A reliable company that provides AC repair should have a variety of references they’ll happily offer you. Look at these references and learn all the details about AC repairs the prospective company has completed.
  5. Will you give a written estimate? Be sure to get a written estimate so you can look at all the details involved with your AC repair. And remember, the cheapest estimate isn’t automatically the best estimate. Your detailed estimates should help you filter out companies you aren’t interested in working with, no matter how much less they are.
  6. Do your technicians have experience working on my system? You may want to be sure the company you pick has experience working on your specific equipment, especially if it has any less-common features.
  7. Will my AC repairs be warrantied? Work backed by a warranty is a no-brainer. If a company isn’t fine with standing behind their work, maybe you should move on.
