    Beware Arzet ***************************** they will rip you off when your air conditioning breaks down in the summer heat. The a/c at my condo went out and I called Arzet to come take a look. They told me I needed a new run capacitor and the total charge would be $625. Pretty pricey, but worth it to get the air running again! Then a few hours later the air was not cold at all so I called and they scheduled a visit for tomorrow.The next visit they told me I had a freon leak which needed to be fixed and I had three options:1) Recharge the freon and add leak stopper for $1100 2) Do a leak test and repair the leak and add freon for $1700 3) Replace the whole system for $5200 I chose option two because the unit is 11 years old and it should last for a few more years at least. They did the leak test for maybe 2 hours and told me they could not find the leak and it must be in the wall so there is nothing they can do. Also they will add leak stopper to the freon recharge which will be an additional $275. So I had to pay them $1975 because I chose option two instead of option 1, which would have saved me $875. I called them about this obvious discrepancy in my invoice and they said a manager would get back to me by the end of the day. No one ever called me back. So I paid $2600, half the cost of a new system for them to not solve my problem. Call anyone else if you want to save yourself thousands of dollars for a normal service call.

    *********************,


    Thank you for your review and were sorry you feel that way about us. We usually respond when we say we will, but were busier than usual and its 100% my fault (****** Arzet) for not getting back to you when we said we would do, and for that I apologize, *********

    About the charges and options, we did give you options and prices, ****. The reason for the prices being high is because this is an 11 year old air conditioning system and it uses the **22 Freon. This type of Freon is really expensive, and its hard to get, for its 3 to 4 times more expensive than the new **410A Freon.

    When you called the office, you had mentioned there another company was going to recharge the system and add a Freon leak stopper for about $700.
    The other company probably did not know that they were going to be dealing with this type of Freon.

    We are an honest company and told you the truth about not finding the Freon leak by the evaporator coil, condenser, or the exposed Freon line set and that the Freon leak must have been within the walls. This is why we fully re charged your air conditioner system with **22 plus added a Freon leak stopper and left your air conditioner running and fully functioning.

    The difference in pricing between option #1 (adding Freon) and option #2 (do a leak test plus add Freon) is mostly the labor involved in doing the leak test. This means that even though we did not find the leak in any of the exposed sections, we still did the labor to try and find it, and this is what the charge was for option #2 as well as fully recharging the system with all new Freon. 

    As we all know, everything has gone up the roof with prices, and you were given choices and you had time to think and make a choice. You called us back, and we responded and did the work as soon as we could which it was in in 2 days.

    Were sorry you feel that way about us, ****, but we gave you choices in writing and do not pressure people to do business with us, and we all have the option to get quotes from different companies but we believe we did the steps in order and truly sorry for not giving you a call back *********
