I got this deal last year. It was a waste of time. The guy was constantly trying to upsell me on their monthly plan. I would not recommend it.

People out here thinking HVAC techs really go out on $9 tune-up calls like it's a money maker or good for business. Even worse, it's through Home Depot who will contract with the bottom of the barrel.
Don't waste your time, money and potential future headaches.

This is basically them upselling you with new furnace or other things. Honestly not worth it.

Community Reviews

This HVAC tune-up is best understood as a low-cost inspection and maintenance check, with some visits including disassembly, cleaning, testing, and written findings that can help spot failing parts before a breakdown. The strongest reports describe technicians checking filters, coils, drain lines, wiring, capacitors, and heat or cooling operation without pushing repairs. The main drawback is that many visits are described as visual only, with coil cleaning, deeper maintenance, or real repairs charged extra. Upsells, rescheduling, and occasional bait-and-switch pricing also come up, so it feels most useful when the local contractor is reputable and the scope is confirmed first.

  • The service can include disassemble, clean, and test steps for basement or attic systems.

  • Some experiences include limited upselling while technicians disassemble, clean, and test components.

    jpmtotorojpmtotoro

  • The tune-up can produce a written inspection report that helps during a home sale.

    Arkansas-Farmer

  • The $8.88 promo can be used to keep an extended warranty valid when maintenance intervals are required.

    xolepa

  • The tune-up can function mainly as a lead-generation pitch that leads into upsells for repairs or replacements.

    a0lsuxnurrburt

  • The service can be limited to operation checks or visual inspections without meaningful cleaning or refrigeration measurements.

    CalmReward787RonnieTheBear

  • The service can involve bait-and-switch pricing or missing promo confirmation during scheduling and billing.

    spicyteaagie

  • The service can be rescheduled repeatedly or assigned to providers far from the Home Depot location.

Anyone live in the winter land? Last ac tune up i had which was several years ago was told they couldn't tune up my ac because the weather was too cold and unable to start the ac from turning on. Anyone know if HD still able to tune up in the cold weather we have in the northern states?

They don't tune anything.... This is just an opportunity for them to tell you everything that could possibly be wrong with your unit.

That was the correct answer as you can't run the unit under 40 degrees.

It's not Home Depot doing the service call, but some local company that will share their profits with HD. Then they will spam you with emails for years.

I am a HVAC contractor in Orlando and there is 0 chance at $9 it would sustain my business. Just to show up at someone's door step rolling around in a service truck fuel/tolls/labor cost am already at a negative $45.00, only benefit I could probably see this being is retaining a customer for future service... however the likelihood of the same person calling for a maintenance at this price will use you again when an issue arises is probably 10%. As far as the deal goes if you get at least a good drain pan and drain line cleaning it's worth at least those $9.00.

Whats your business name so I make sure to not use you!!!! Well that and I am a bit farther in PA but still I am offended as a Slickdealer that you wont take a loss for a paying customer, unacceptable!!


LOL, I don't know what the expectation are around this deal and find it super corny to be part of a Blackfriday deal ha. As others have said not sure if you are expecting a service from these companies or a visual inspection without any actions where they take things apart. The risk with that is that if something was about to break on a system, the technician touching that components might actually make it stop/break.....taking the shady aspect of things out of the conversation here like them actually breaking anything. Just level setting the expectation.


I think like this poster said this is a loss leader type service and if its done genuinely it might build a list of paying clients in the future, hopefully ha.

Does anyone have experience with this? Seems like too good to be true type of deal and seems like it's paying someone $10 to come out and do a sales pitch on why you need a new system lmao

I am an HVAC Technician. I called them and asked what was included. They don't do anything involving cleaning. This is only an operation check. And they are only doing heating checks. Thats the indoor inspections and won't touch your outdoor unit. No refrigeration checks (superheat/subcooling).

The benefit is if you have an older unit they will let you know areas of potential failure. But you have to know they are going to push equipment upgrades. And they will most likely point out all the repairs that are needed and could be needed in the future. And thats how they convince you to replace because they compare it to a new equipment.

It's not worth the $9 to spend a hour or more letting them sell you.

Research what you should receive during an HVAC maintenance. And find a company that will provide those services.

I was fooled and purchased this last year. Guy came and used my garden hose and sprayed the crap out of my AC unit from the outside. Didn't even bother to open it. Then, he tried to sell me annual cleaning service and an "upgraded" furnace unit for $7k. I told him to scram.
surely you didn't use the word scram
