He checked the outside unit, based on the noise he guessed the problem is the capacitor. He changed it very quickly and the unit started working. He knew what he was doing and did it really fast and quick. However, when I asked him how much the capacitor cost, he told me $100, but when I looked it up in Amazon, the price was about $20 !! At that point I started to think twice about anything he was saying.
He then said the unit needs Gas, and he adjusted the gas level on the device. I did not notice any problem with device and the electricity bill was not high, so I don't think that was necessary, but I can not say that by sure.
Anyways, at end he asked for $200, and when I asked for price decrease he offered $172. I think it was not worth it, but as they were quite fast and responsive and fixed the AC in hot florida day, I appreciate their service. Next time, I will try to fix it myself, or I will double check the price before they start doing anything.
UPDATE: to be completely honest with your customers you should not have mentioned that a capacitor costs $100, while you are mentioning here it is only $40.
"We at Cactus Cooling and Heating would first like to apologize for any miscommunication on our part about our services. The final bill for Roozbeh Zabihollahi included the full service check-up, the Capacitor, and R22 gas for the system. In his review of our work stated that we charged him $100 for the capacitor, but he failed to mention the gas that we used to charge his system. The capacitor cost us $35 from our distributors, and we normally include a 15% mark-up to the price to cover having it in stock and installation. When asked for a discount of the original price of $200, we were happy to reduces it to $172. We would however like to remind everyone that at this price we were very close to just breaking even. We at Cactus Cooling and Heating are privileged to be able to serve fellow Central Floridians during their hottest months of the year and would like to continue to do so while also maintaining our business. Sincerely, Stephen Mongiove Cactus Cooling and Heating"
Cactus was used in the spring of last year and the spring of this year for spring tune-ups. Since then, Cactus was called to troubleshoot and repair a fault in the system. The work was done in an excellent and expeditious manner each time.
So, I searched Angies List and found Cactus near my home. I called them on Thursday afternoon and they were here on Friday morning. Rich and Matt were very friendly and throughly inspected my A/C for a leak and filled it with "freon". Rich came back again in the afternoon to find another problem. I am happy to report that both my A/C and heat pump are performing wonderfully.
I highly recommend Cactus Heating and Cooling Co. They have 40 years of experience, are a family owned and run business and provide expert, prompt, and reasonably priced service!
THANK YOU MATT AND TEAM FOR A JOB WELL DONE, WE WILL CALL YOU FOR FUTURE REPAIRS.
