Free HVAC Estimates in San Antonio — Above & Beyond Air Conditioning & Heating
Free in-home estimate for installations. Free $89 diagnostic credited back when you approve the repair. Free second-opinion review on competitor quotes.
Three estimate paths. New installation and replacement quotes are always free and always done in person. Repair diagnostics are $89 ($129 after-hours) and fully waived the moment you approve any repair. If you already have a written quote from another San Antonio company, we review it line-by-line for free, no obligation, no follow-up calls.
Every estimate is written, line-itemized, and valid for 30 days. We do not run phone-only pricing on installs because ductwork, attic, and electrical drive cost more than tonnage does.

$89 Repair Diagnostic, Waived With Any Repair
Why we charge it separately instead of burying it in the repair price: a repair diagnostic is a 30-minute, multi-tool, written assessment, not a service-call fee. Some companies advertise free diagnostic and recover the cost through inflated repair pricing. We charge $89 separately and waive the full amount the moment you approve any repair. After-hours diagnostics are $129, also waived with the repair.
What is covered in the $89 diagnostic:
Multimeter test on capacitor, contactor, motor amperage, circuit-board continuity, and thermostat wiring trace.
Refrigerant gauge reading, including suction and liquid line pressures, superheat and subcool, and system charge assessment. Electronic leak detector if a refrigerant leak is suspected.
Visual coil and drain-pan inspection, including evaporator and condenser coils, drain line flow, and drain-pan algae or debris.
Photo documentation of every failure point, shown to you on the truck before we quote.
Written, line-itemized repair estimate including parts, labor, warranty terms, and timeline.
Free Second Opinion on Any Competitor Quote
We review line-by-line, and if their quote is the better deal, we tell you so. If you already have a written quote from another San Antonio HVAC company and the number feels high or the diagnosis does not match the symptoms, we will review it line-by-line for free. No obligation, no follow-up calls.
What to bring: written competitor estimate (PDF, photo, or forwarded email all work), address of the system being quoted, and any notes from the competitor technician on the diagnosis.
What we do: diagnosis against symptoms (does the named failure match what we would expect?), parts spec, tonnage, and SEER2 against the home (is the equipment right-sized?), labor scope and warranty terms, and a straight read. If their quote is the better deal for your situation, we will tell you so.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the repair diagnostic not free?
Free diagnostic usually means the cost is buried in the repair quote. We charge $89 separately and waive the full amount with any repair. If you decide not to repair, you pay only the $89 for the written assessment.
How long does the in-home install estimate take?
About 45 minutes on-site. The written estimate arrives within 24 hours.
Am I committing to anything by booking the estimate?
No. The visit is free, the quote is free, and the decision is yours. The estimate is valid for 30 days. If you want to move forward, you call us, no unsolicited follow-ups.
What if the competitor quote is the better deal?
We will tell you to go with them. The second-opinion review exists to protect customers from bad quotes, not to win every job.
