The Monarch Check

A 32-point tune-up for $49.

A real maintenance visit, not a sales call. We inspect thirty-two points, write down what we find, photograph your own coil and filter, and hand it all to you. If your system is healthy, we tell you that and leave.

Why bother

Most July breakdowns were visible in April.

A weak capacitor, a clogged drain, a coil packed with dirt — these are cheap and boring to fix in spring. In the middle of a heat wave they turn into a compressor, an emergency call, and a ruined weekend.

You get the findings in writingNot a verbal "everything looks fine." An actual report you keep.
You get photos of your own equipmentYour coil, your filter, your drain pan. Yours whether you hire us again or not.
No pressure to buy anythingNobody here is paid on commission. If it's healthy, we say so and leave.

Michael gave me an honest assessment, listened carefully to what I wanted, and never tried to upsell me on anything I did not need. His team went above and beyond, working through the hottest part of the day and well into the night to make sure our new HVAC system was installed properly.
