Stay Cool and Save Money this Summer
Summer is here and with the Arizona heat ramping up, staying cool is top of mind for many homeowners. When the temperature starts to hit triple digits, the last thing anyone wants to realize is that there’s a problem with their air conditioning unit.
Air conditioning repair and replacement costs are notoriously high, but PumbSmart owner Wayne Decker is on a mission to help homeowners with fair prices and highquality work — even when an uncertain economic climate and high inflation have made everything more expensive.
“The fact is things have gone up in cost. Part costs went up and unit costs went up but not near what other companies are charging,” said Wayne. “The COVID pandemic has been a grand excuse for everyone from car repair mechanics to plumbers to air conditioning technicians to charge not just more, but exorbitantly more.”
Wayne and the PlumbSmart team have remained committed to providing their customers with low prices, and are so committed that they encourage homeowners to call them with quotes from other companies to guarantee they are getting a fair price.
“Every week we’re hearing stories about people who are being quoted $17,000 for an air conditioning unit that we charge $9,000 for,” he said. “When we give a quote, it’s quoted for the top consumer air conditioning unit in the country so you’re getting a better unit for less money. It’s a win-win. And we prove it with our warranty because our parts and labor warranty are for three years instead of one.
” The PlumbSmart team also takes time to understand each customer’s unique situation before making service recommendations, considering their financial situation, the length of time they plan to be in a home, and even potential electricity savings.
“We don’t go out to houses to sell new units,” said Wayne. “We look at the situation. Are you going to be in the house for a long time? Are you in the process of moving? There are a lot of variables that determine whether you should invest in a new air conditioner.”
Despite the uncertain economic climate, Wayne encourages homeowners to stay on top of routine maintenance, including air filter replacements and bi-yearly tune-ups, which can help to extend the life and efficiency of an AC system.
Right now, PlumbSmart has an online coupon for a $49 tune-up including a diagnostic, outdoor coil cleaning, check for leaks, and more.
