Hi All, I’m in the dark about HVAC service— I had contracted with Advanced Mechanical, who I know from contractors and others are super competent, but they’ve already charged $500/year (for regular annual maintenance and the privilege of getting their ‘preferred’ rate for labor and parts). I discovered that I couldn’t get heat last week and have already spent $350 for them to diagnose the problem; now about to spend another $350 to get a replacement valve and its installation. Is this reasonable? If it’s the going rate, I’ll stick with them for their expertise, particularly as they came out the same day, but it seems high to me. Maybe I’m just behind the inflationary curve?
