Service Call & Diagnostic Pricing
Here’s how a standard service call works at Hartzell’s:
$99
Dispatch Fee
Applies to every service visit. Covers travel and getting a qualified technician to your door.
Dispatch is waived on your included tune-up visit(s). Repair and emergency calls: $99 dispatch applies.
$111
Diagnostic Fee
Paid to identify the root cause of your system’s problem, properly, not by guessing.
Credited toward your repair or replacement if you approve an estimate within 14 days. If you decide not to move forward, it covers the diagnosis.
$229
Tune-Up
A thorough inspection and cleaning of your heating or cooling system, not a 15-minute checklist.
Dave’s 360 Plan members receive discounts on tune-ups.
Example: You call us for a heating problem. We charge $99 dispatch + $111 diagnostic = $210 total to come out and diagnose. We find the problem and give you a repair quote of $350. You approve it, the $111 diagnostic comes off: you pay $99 + ($350 – $111) = $338 total. The diagnosis didn’t cost you extra because you chose to fix it.

Why Dispatch and Diagnostic Are Separate Fees
Some HVAC companies advertise a single “service fee” that seems low, then build their diagnostic profit into labor rates or parts markups you don’t see until the invoice arrives. Hartzell’s separates these because they are genuinely different services:
- Dispatch fee ($99)Pays for travel, fuel, and the cost of keeping a fully stocked service truck on the road. This is a real cost that exists whether or not the visit takes 10 minutes or 3 hours.
- Diagnostic fee ($111)Pays for the technician’s expertise and time to find the actual problem. A proper diagnosis takes time and skill. Dave has been diagnosing HVAC systems for 15+ years, he finds the real cause, not just the symptom. And when you approve the repair, you get it back.
The result: transparent pricing where you know what you’re paying and why. No buried fees. No inflated labor rates to hide a “free diagnostic.” Just honest service.
Financing Options
A new HVAC system is a major purchase. Hartzell’s offers financing through Synchrony, Wells Fargo Home Projects, and Wisetackgiving you multiple options and better approval chances. Ask about current promotional terms when you receive your estimate. Learn more about financing →
💵 Cash / Check Courtesy Discount, 3% Off
3% off when you pay cash or check, on repairs over $2,000. On a $3,000 job that’s $90 back. On a $5,000 job it’s $150. Just ask before I write the invoice.
A couple of things to know: The discount applies to the repair portion of the invoice only, the $99 dispatch fee and $111 diagnostic fee are not included. Must be paid in full at time of service. Cash or personal/business check only (no money orders).
Discounts I Offer
I’ve never been big on gimmicks, but I do think certain customers deserve a break, folks who’ve been loyal, who referred a neighbor, or who’ve served their community. Here’s what I currently offer:
| Discount | Amount | Who Qualifies |
|---|---|---|
| Annual Maintenance Loyalty | 5% off repairs | Customers who’ve kept their annual maintenance on schedule, year over year. You take care of your system, I’ll take care of you. |
| Welcome Back | $50 off | Past Hartzell’s customers returning after 12 or more months away. Life happens, I’m glad you’re back. |
| Neighbor Referral | $50 off | New customers referred by an existing Hartzell’s customer. Word of mouth means more to me than any ad, this is my way of saying thank you. |
| Veteran / First Responder | 5% off repairs | Active and retired military, law enforcement, fire, and EMTs. You’ve done enough for this community, the least I can do is this. |
| Senior Courtesy | 5% off repairs | Customers age 65 and older. Just mention it when you call, no paperwork required. |
| Decision Day Discount | 5% off | Say yes to the repair on the day of diagnosis and I’ll knock 5% off the repair total. |
| Multi-Repair Discount | 5% off | When we find and fix more than one issue on the same visit, 5% off the total repair. |
A few notes: All discounts apply to the repair portion of the invoice only, the $99 dispatch fee and $111 diagnostic fee are not included. Discounts cannot be combined; if more than one applies, I’ll give you the best one. Ask when you call or when I arrive, just mention it before the invoice is written up.
Common Pricing Questions
Do I have to pay the dispatch fee if the technician can’t fix the problem?
Yes, the dispatch fee applies when we arrive on site. The diagnostic fee also applies to identify what’s wrong. However, if you approve a repair and we find during that repair that it cannot be completed (extremely rare), we work through it honestly. We’ll always tell you upfront if a job is beyond our scope or if parts aren’t available before charging for work not done.
Are there additional fees for after-hours or weekend service?
Emergency after-hours calls may have additional fees. We will always tell you what those fees are before dispatching a technician, no surprise charges. Call 405-375-4822 and we’ll give you upfront pricing before any work begins.
Do you charge for estimates on new system installations?
No, estimates for new system installations and replacements are free. Call 405-375-4822 or contact us online to schedule your free estimate.
Can I get a ballpark price over the phone?
For repairs, we need to see the system before we can quote, that’s what the diagnostic fee pays for. For new systems, we can give you a general range over the phone based on your home’s square footage and existing setup, then schedule a free in-home visit to give you an exact quote. Call 405-375-4822.
