So I know that obviously bookings are going to have a waiting time, and a premium is going to be charged for fixing Air Con during Summer. Supply & Demand and all that.
But I just want to check how much is too much.
Quoted for $198 which includes call out + 30 minutes worth of Labour. $44 per additional 15 minutes.
I thought about a portable air con until Summer is over, but it's just not practical because there's not enough space and there is someone with limited mobility who wouldn't be able to step over the hose.
By the way the Air Con is a very old Fujitsu General unit which is just blowing warm air like it's just a fan, and not a very powerful fan at that.
Best thing you can do is get multiple quotes. And quick. More hot weather will come.
Do not get a portable aircon. They are only good for a 3m x 3m bedroom at best.
Airconditioning and heating are the only two things I don't skimp on.
