On their website, Sunkool shows a 21-point checklist of items they perform, but I don't see these items listed. Also, if you read the list, I don't think they spend enough time at the house to perform all of the items on their list. Personally, I think most HVAC companies are more interested in getting the $100 or more maintenance fee. Some even recommend coming every 6 months. If I were trying to prevent failures, I would replace the start capacitor every 3 years or so, but I have not heard of a single company that does this. Call me skeptical.

Oh boy can I tell you a SunKool nightmare. Consider what life would be like without air conditioning for 3 weeks in AUGUST and you have an idea of how incompetent their techs can be. It took a call to Carrier to get the needed part for my AC that was only 3 years old. Thankfully I was covered for parts and labor but I would run from SunKool! I now use One Hour Heating and Air.
