Frequently Asked Questions

We know how stressful it can be when your heating or cooling isn’t working, especially when the weather’s at its worst. That’s why we do our best to get to you as quickly as possible. ​ Typically, we can book repair visits for same-day or next-day service, and maintenance appointments might be a little further out. But don’t worry, we’ll work with you to find a time that fits your schedule. Our calendar fills up fast during peak hot/cold months, so the earlier you book, the better chance you have at snagging your preferred spot. ​ If you’re dealing with an emergency, like no heat in the middle of winter or no AC during a heatwave, just give us a call. We’ll make your home a priority and get your system back up and running as soon as we can.

The diagnostic fee is an $80 upfront service charge that includes the home visit and professional system diagnosis. Diagnosing HVAC systems requires skill, experience, and specialized tools, and this fee reflects the time and expertise needed to accurately identify the issue. Beginning in January 2026, diagnostic fees will no longer be waived or applied toward repair costs. We’ve adjusted add-on pricing for other services to keep overall costs fair and transparent for our customers.

We’ve got your back around the clock for real emergencies - we're just a call or text away. We understand that some situations just can’t wait. ​ That said, we also value our family time. So if a request falls outside regular hours (Monday-Friday from 8am-6pm), we may apply a $100 convenience fee to reflect the time taken away from home.

We work on most standard residential heating and cooling systems, including: ✅ Heat pumps ✅ Gas furnaces ✅ Package units ✅ Air handlers (electric furnace) ✅ Central A/C – Communicating split systems ✅ Central A/C – Standard split systems ​ We do not service: ❌ Commercial HVAC systems ❌ Mini-splits (ductless systems) ❌ Window units ❌ Portable A/C units ❌ In-floor furnaces ❌ Space heaters ❌ Generators ❌ Water heaters ❌ Refrigerators Not sure what kind of system you have? Reach out! We’re happy to take a look and point you in the right direction.

To help us serve you quickly and safely, it’s helpful if you can: • Clear the area around your thermostat, furnace, and outdoor AC unit (if applicable) so we can access your system easily. • Make sure attic ladder is accessible if your system is located there. • Secure pets if they’re nervous around strangers. We love friendly dogs, but bites are a safety risk. • Ensure someone over the age of 18 will be home during your appointment. • Note any unusual symptoms or issues you’ve noticed. This can help us better identify intermittent issues. Following these steps helps us complete your service efficiently and safely while keeping your home protected.

Our focus is on helping you get the most out of your current system through honest repairs and reliable maintenance. We would much rather save you money with a repair than upsell you for a system replacement. If it turns out that your unit can’t be saved, we'll bring in a trusted local partner who shares our standards for quality work and customer care, ensuring that your install is done right.

Yes! All of our repair and maintenance services include a 90-day labor guarantee.(https://www.chillaxhvac247.com/about#guarantee) That means if the same issue we repaired happens again within 90 days, we’ll come back out and fix it without charging additional labor. ​ Here’s what you can expect: • Labor coverage: Our warranty covers the work we perform during your repair or maintenance service. • Parts coverage: Any replacement parts are backed by the manufacturer’s warranty, which can vary depending on the part and brand. • What’s not covered: Issues that are unrelated to the original repair, new breakdowns, or damage caused by lack of maintenance, misuse, or outside factors (like power surges or animals) aren’t included in the warranty. After the 90-day period, any new repairs are billed at our regular rates, but you’ll always receive upfront pricing and clear recommendations before we do any work.

We don’t sell parts separately. Chillax Heating and Air Conditioning is a service company, so parts are supplied and installed as part of our repair services. When a part fails, our goal is to identify why it failed so we can help prevent the same issue from happening again. That level of diagnosis isn’t possible if we only supply the part without servicing the system.

Typically, no. We already do everything we can to keep costs low for our customers without compromising on quality. In addition, we can’t guarantee the quality, compatibility, or reliability of customer-supplied parts. ​ In some cases, if we determine we can work with a part you provide, the repair may not be eligible for our guarantee (https://www.chillaxhvac247.com/about)and could require additional labor for modifications or extra troubleshooting, which may increase the total cost. ​ Using parts we supply allows us to fully stand behind the repair and honor our labor guarantee, helping you save money and giving you peace of mind.
