Here's another AC company not to use - Southern Coast Services. I saw them listed in the Palm Beach County Best Pics Book. One of 5 that many people voted on. These people don't know when they are getting ripped off. A few weeks ago in July 2023, my AC was not cooling below 82 during the hot afternoons. My AC is 6 years old. The tech came, told me that I had a cheap fan motor that was not supposed to be in there that would affect the cooling. I told him the motor was replaced by another company, Dr. HVAC in September 2022. After inspecting every part of my outside, inside of my unit, and my attic, this phony salesman shows me a list of all the things I needed. Total bill - $4,000. I looked at him like he was crazy. One of the things was a charge for $800 for freon. Another one was over $1,000 to seal my air ducts in the attic. I knew he was full of it and refused the work. He calls his boss to tell him I was not doing any of the work. The boss told him to charge me the service call for $89. Then this character tries to make me feel guilty for his hour and a half of work. I paid him the $89 and got rid of him. A half hour later, his boss calls me and tells me he will give me the freon for free, a $800 value, if I do the rest of the work for $ 3,200. I refused. Then he tells me that the electric on my water heater was not done to code and it's a hazard that can explode. He was now trying to send an electrician to give me a free estimate. I didn't want another person from his company in my house. Now I called some other companies to ask if $800 for freon was a fair price. Now I'm told that an honest AC company could not give me an exact price on freon, because they don't know exactly how much the unit will take until they do it and weigh their tank before and after. So to tell me it will be $800 was a high rip off price. The next day I had Island AC, a company that 2 people on here recommended. The tech came, agreed that I had an inferior fan motor, and needed a pound or two of freon, but he didn't know exactly until he put it in. After he put it in, it was 4 pounds. So the charge for 4 pounds of freon was $360, not the $800 Southern Coast Services wanted to charge me. Don't use that PBC book, get your recommendations from another site. Don't use Southern Coast Services.
