Again, we empathize with Ms. ***’s position and understand her frustration. We need to state that Ms. [redacted] had a different person work on this system and introduce refrigerant to the system which technically voided this one year warranty. Because of this issue, the calls in 2014 and 2015 were billable to [redacted] Homes. Ms. [redacted] has not been charged for any repair to date. Simply in interest of customer satisfaction, we will waive the $94.95 diagnostic charge as mentioned in the previous offer to satisfy this complaint. There will be no labor charge for changing this coil. Additionally, in interest of customer satisfaction, we will absorb the cost of the refrigerant to repair this system. The Labor warranty does not include incidental materials such as refrigerant. This means that this repair will be done at no charge to her. The dye issue has been resolved in that it is neither feasible nor reasonable to introduce dye to a new component and we appreciate that our position is understood by the customer We understand the desire to have a new one year warranty, but we will only offer the 30 day labor warranty on this evaporator coil installation as committed in the previous offer. A new repair at any point in a warranty period does not constitute a floating calendar which extends a warranty out past the original warranty date. Our position on this matter is firm. While Ms. [redacted] has indicated that we should contact her directly, our offer for resolution is not in agreement with her demands, and so we will advise this response be delivered through the BBB system. If Ms. [redacted] wishes to have us go forward with the repair as discussed here, she should contact by August 31, 2016. While her system is working, she may not feel the need to have this repair done immediately. She must call to schedule no later than August 31, 2016 and this repair must be completed by September 30, 2016. We will not extend this offer past these dates. This will be our final offer on this matter. We wish her well with her medical condition.
