How the visit should go

For a failure that isn't dangerous, you'll see a written recommendation before we touch anything. Approve it, and we do the repair and test the system after.

Diagnosis first, then a written recommendation and your approval. After that comes the repair, and we test the system again before we call it done.

What to decide next

Skip the repeated breaker resets and don't pop the panel open yourself. Just tell us what the thermostat, blower, outdoor unit, water, ice, and any error code are doing.
