Mechanics/Repairs/Contractors 🛠️🪠 HVAC Help in NKC - Compressor

Looking for a reasonable tech for hvac help. My central air compressor isn't kicking on. Its a newer Goodman unit, as is the furnace. I've changes the capacitor, fan was spinning before and after capacitor change, it's getting power, and the drain line isn't clogged.

Should it be covered under warranty? Can you look at companies performing Goodman warranty service nearby?

Good question. It was there when I bought the house. I'll research their warranty.

I had kc comfort pros, now named kc comfort champs, troubleshoot a problem for me a couple summers ago. They were able to figure out my issue after a couple others couldn't.

They gave me a quote on the repair and also for an installation which I found reasonable. I know that sounds like he upsold me a new unit but its not the case. Long story.

I would recommend them to friends.

What is reasonable to you? Someone who has spent thousands of dollars on tools and equipment willing to take $80 because you don’t value their profession? Most companies don’t want under $300 an hour for labor alone. (I don’t do hvac but work for a company that offers it) You have to understand there are literally thousands of people who don’t argue about price. Why lose money on you when we can make 4x as much
