If it’s hotter inside your house than out, you most likely are having a problem with your air conditioning. During a heat wave, your house can reach dangerously high temperatures quickly, without air conditioning. This is miserable for everyone and can be especially dangerous for infants, young children and the elderly. If your air goes out, you’ll need to find someone to repair it quickly. Hiring a Pro Air HVAC Contractor to repair or replace your unit, will let you have your air conditioning up and running, cooling your house to a comfortable temperature, as soon as it’s possible.

If you’ve not used an Pro Air HVAC Contractor in the past, ask family, friends or neighbors for a recommendation to a good AC company. Most have used one in the past and will be glad to give you the name. Call and set up an appointment for a technician to come out and inspect your air conditioning unit to determine the problem. After the technician looks at the unit, he should be able to give you an estimate to repair the it, if possible. If it’s too old and the problem is major, it may be recommended to replace the unit instead. No matter what the problem is, whether a repair or replacement, make sure you get the estimate in writing. This avoids any misunderstandings if the price were to change. It also allows you to see in writing what is proposed to be done to the unit.

Before the contractor does any work, verify the company has the proper liability and worker’s compensation insurance. Without the proper coverage, if any damage were to be done to the home, or anyone were injured, you, as the homeowner, could be held liable, if the company doesn’t have the correct insurance coverage. Ask for a Certificate of Insurance issued to you, listing the company policies and amounts. Contact the insurance agent to make sure the coverage is in effect. This is for your protection, in case of any unforeseen problem.

If your air conditioning goes out, there is no doubt you’ll need it repaired or replaced as soon as possible. Following these suggestions will allow you to find a good HVAC contractor to get your air conditioning running again and your house cool and comfortable before you know it.
