Best Electric Inspection in Oklahoma City OK
My home needed a complete electrical assessment. I feel fortunate to find an electrician that explains safety issues that can occur and be resolved with an upgrade. Brock is Professional and understanding. I highly recommend this Electrician if you want your work done promptly and correctly.

Our furnace stopped working and we called Airco for help. Repairman said that the control board was bad and that it would need to be replaced.
He then spent most of his time trying to convince me to replace the whole system, rather than fixing it. Our system isn't new, but it isn't exactly old and falling apart, either. We've had very few issues with it but he didn't want to hear this at all. Despite my repeatedly stating that this was the only major problem we've had and finally stating that a new system was just not going to be in our budget for at least a few more years, he continued to fearmonger that it was probably not just the control board and that we really need to just replace the whole system. What he based this on, I have no idea.
We agreed to just do the control board replacement and were given a quote of over $600. The reason for this price, we were told, was the high cost of the part. I did a quick search on my own and found a brand new control board for $50 on Amazon from a 5-star marketplace seller. I then declined service from Airco, paid for the estimate and resolved to fix the furnace myself.
We ended up installing the part ourselves in a little under 30 minutes and now the system is working perfectly, with no other issues at all. Total cost - $79 for the diagnosis, $50 for the part, 30 minutes of effort. Unbelievable that anyone would think it acceptable to charge over $600 for that service. I realize the cost of labor is high, but come on!
Never, ever, ever calling this company again. They are far more interested in selling new systems than in servicing older ones.
For the record - our heating system is 16 years old and is a model that typically lasts 20-30 years, with proper maintenance, which ours gets.
Update: Austin from AirCo called me after seeing this review to attempt to harass me into taking this review down. He was very condescending and would not address the issue of the inflated repair estimate, just deflected over and over again to the supposed poor condition of the unit.

While the work I received seems fine, I was overcharged.
$160 for a $35 part. Had I been a little more patient, I could have saved at a minimum, $60.
They charge $50 as a standard service fee to come out to the house in first place.

Be very careful utilizing this company. we agreed to a &79 dispatch fee then charged $320 for the technician basically confirming that yes there was two electrical meters for the property. Very poor customer service when they want to argue and you argue back they just hang up.
