Is this quote fair? Start with the scope.

Another company has diagnosed your system or quoted a repair or a new system. Book a free second opinion and we schedule a visit during regular weekday hours, check your system on site and compare it with what was diagnosed and what the proposed work includes. You get our findings in writing, with no obligation.

The second-opinion visit is free. If you then want us to do any repair, we quote it in writing before work starts.

Use the installed-price guide to compare equipment and scope, and the repair-vs-replace guide to weigh the options.

A free second look before you spend thousands

Before you approve costly repairs or a full replacement, we’ll inspect your system and provide a clear, honest second opinion for free.

Symptoms like repeated repairs, inconsistent temps, or high costs often lead to recommendations for replacement—but there may be more affordable options.

Cocoa residents sometimes get conflicting advice due to our older home stock and mix of system types. Our local expertise helps you make an informed choice matching local code.

We present unbiased findings and all viable options, clearly outlining costs and long-term value. We never push unnecessary upgrades or repairs.

  • Same-day service available in most cases — most breakdowns diagnosed and fixed on the first visit
  • Upfront written pricing — you approve the price before we touch anything
  • All makes and models — we service it regardless of who installed it
  • Licensed and insured — background-checked technicians, fully covered work

What to know before you book free second opinions

Repair or replace?

Sometimes a second opinion saves thousands—minor repairs are often misdiagnosed as system failure. In rare cases, replacement truly is the best option, and we’ll explain why.

What actually drives the cost

Cost drivers here are zero—our evaluation is free. If you choose to proceed with us for repair or install, you’ll get a clear, detailed quote with options.

How fast we can get there

We can schedule a free second opinion visit within 1–2 business days in Cocoa; urgent cases may be fit in same day if possible.

What we check on every call

We check your entire HVAC system—mechanical, electrical, controls, airflow, and any specific areas flagged by the previous quote or diagnosis.

Brad RiggsJul 2024 · Google

As a maintenance director with over 12 years of experience, dealing with AC companies isn’t normally something I look forward to. About 8 months ago a resident’s heat wasn’t kicking on — I reached out to Cool Aid and in 30 minutes he showed up and had it…

Dave is one of the most professional & knowledgeable air repair men I’ve ever met. There’s nothing he doesn’t know. He’s very reasonable, easy to talk to and has amazing information! Whether it’s an estimate or the big job, this man knows his stuff!

Raye HolmesJun 2024 · Google

We first met Dave when he came out to give us a remodel quote. A couple of days later our air went out. We called Dave — he was truly amazing! If I could give 10 stars I would!

FREE Second Opinions FAQs

Is this quote fair?

A fair comparison starts with the same equipment and work. Send the written quote so we can review models, size, efficiency, warranty and installation scope, then explain the differences. A lower total alone does not establish better value.

What should a quote include?

Ask for equipment model numbers, tonnage, SEER2 rating, parts and labor warranty years, permit and inspection responsibility, lineset reuse or replacement, ductwork scope, electrical work and the full installed price.

Does the second opinion cost anything?

No. When another company has already given you a diagnosis or a repair or replacement quote, our on-site second opinion is free, with written findings and no obligation. Any repair you then ask us to do is quoted in writing before work starts.

Can you check whether I really need a new system?

We review the diagnosis, condition and proposed repair or replacement scope. We explain whether a repair is worth considering and what information is still needed. A second opinion does not guarantee a particular finding or a lower price.

What’s included in a free second opinion visit?

We’ll assess your HVAC system, confirm or clarify your previous diagnosis, check for missed issues, give you our findings in writing, and answer all your questions—at no charge and with no obligation.

Why get a second opinion on HVAC repairs or replacement?

AC repairs can be pricey. Sometimes, replacement is recommended when a targeted repair is all you need. Our unbiased assessment protects your wallet and home comfort.

Can you review estimates from any company?

Yes, we’ll review quotes or diagnoses from any local or national competitor, whether on repairs, new installations, or indoor air quality upgrades.

Is this only available for Cocoa homeowners?

Our free second opinions are available to homeowners across Brevard County and the Space Coast. Call and we’ll confirm we cover your address.

Why trust Cool Aid Air Conditioning for a second opinion?

We’re a community-focused, family-run company with no incentive to upsell. Our goal is honest, transparent service—see why so many locals turn to us for trusted advice.

What if you disagree with the first opinion?

We’ll clearly explain the differences, show you the evidence, and outline all repair or replacement options—so you decide with confidence.

How much does it cost?

Absolutely nothing. Our second opinion assessments are 100% free—no hidden fees, no obligations, no pressure.

How quickly can you come out for a second opinion?

We usually schedule within a couple of business days, and can often accommodate urgent or ‘no-cool’ cases same day when possible.

Is there a guarantee on your findings or repairs?

All repairs or installations we perform after a second opinion are backed by our standard parts and labor warranty.
