You can stay even more comfortable this winter in Chelan and Wenatchee with the confidence that you have an upfront and reliable technician you can call on for furnace repair. You can find the ideal company right where you are now, online.

Even though your prime instinct may be to ask your friends and family for their recommendation, you can find out a lot of information about a company on your own, it’s right at your fingertips. Using online databases and websites, you can uncover: the years a company has been in business, the feel of their customer’s reviews, financing choices, the promotions they are offering and many more with a quick search. The experts at Lakeside Heating & Air have put together some things you can look for when picking a furnace repair company.

  • The company should offer you a quote on repair costs before commencing work. Don’t be scared to ask if there are any concealed costs. You don’t want a surprise when you get your bill. It’s also a good idea to keep an updated log of your furnace repair costs over the life of your system.

  • The company should practice proper safety techniques in their work. You are trusting the repair person with your home and belongings and you want to make sure nothing will be destroyed or damaged during the repair. Ask the company about their work procedures and the time-frame in order to better understand how they operate.

  • The company should be properly bonded and licensed. If a company is bonded that will protect you if anything goes wrong during the repair. It also shows you that you’re involved with a reputable company.

  • The company clearly explains and puts in writing what is wrong with your furnace. A dependable company ensures their customers are aware the work required to fix a problem. They don’t want to leave you in the dark.
