First I want to say my heater is very old, the ac is as well but not even close to the age of the heater. They both run on gas. In February my heat stopped working, repair man figured it was the thermostat. So he replaced it; cleaned the filters and fiddled with the inside. Heat works!
So its hot now turned on the a/c and nothing! The system in the basement is running but not the compressor outside.
Called the same company to come out, because they fixed the heat problem. The repair man said that the transformer was dangling and "he didn't know who was fiddling with it."
Well, I wasn't that's their job. He also added a bit of freon.
$195 later the a/c worked and it worked the next day as well. 10 days later my a/c is not blowing cold air.
Here's my dilemma they are coming back out, but I'm kind of pissed because why isn't it working after they serviced it 10 days ago? If there was a problem why didn't they find it when they were here and should I have to pay for them to come back? I know that you only need freon if there's a leak so why didn't he find the leak the first time? And do I have any right to claim that they accidentally or not messed with the transformer while servicing the heater in February? I've owned my house for 3 years and before the thermostat problem everything worked fine. Also the compressor outside isn't as loud as I remember it being.
Please help I might be getting swindled or paying for their mistakes and I'm not sure what to do. Thanks for reading.
