The Pros and Cons of Dealing with Costco as Your Air Conditioner Supplier
Pros
- Trust is a motivator for many people. Costco has proven they are trustworthy and allow returns that other corporations may not, which is helpful for the portable air conditioners.
- Consistency is a factor in decision-making. Costco is typically consistent with the quality and products they offer. You cannot assume the same for third-party contractors, as is the case with HVAC products and installations.
- There is transparency. Costco’s customer service process, its return policy, and other details are documented online.
- Incentives are a good push. Costco often offers an incentive to shop with them, like 10% back on your purchase price in store credit.
- Costco offers additional Comfort Shield warranty coverage on many items. The Comfort Shield labor warranty program provides extra coverage for Lennox® products, for example. This coverage may alleviate your homeowners’ out-of-pocket costs for items like labour charges, diagnostic fees, and refrigerant that are not covered by the factory warranty. As with any HVAC system warranty, be sure to read the fine print and understand exactly what this warranty covers.
Cons
- You don’t know who Costco will choose as a third-party for installation jobs. Guaranteeing quality installation is out of your control.
- You will likely end up paying a markup for Costco to act as a third party between you and the HVAC installation company.
- The Shield warranty Costco offers often comes with limitations and is only valid for 3 years.
- Costco requires an annual membership fee which you may have to pay in order to buy Costco air conditioners in store.
