If an order is placed by you (the client) and is no longer needed or is the wrong part, generally all of our suppliers will have a restocking fee and may be only returned if it meets certain criteria. Every supplier has their own percentage of restocking fee and varies depending on which supplier we used. Spare parts or equipment must be in its original condition and boxed and unused. Some of our suppliers may only allow a limited time after order was received by you (the client) to return, if all conditions of theirs are met. We at Zero Degree AC Limited may also add an admin fee for any returns and varies depending on value of item. Please note some spares may not be returned at all. If we have attended a job and ordered the wrong or incorrect parts by engineering or admin error we do cover this and is not the responsibility of the client.
    We cannot take liability for supplier’s delays or mistakes. If a manufacturers design specs have changed on spares and upgraded parts, additional costs may incur for 3rd party supplies to be supplied in order to carry out or finish a job. If one of our suppliers have delays in delivering, we will not accept any responsibility or be blamed for couriers out of our reach and control and we will only advice of ETA and do our best for them to minimize their delays by contacting these suppliers.

Please see section 19 for spares. If a proforma has been paid for scheduled works and a client changes their mind this is not refundable. They will lose either 75% of their payment or they must proceed with works as scheduled.
  17. QUOTATIONS
    All quotations are sent to ‘you’ the customer via email based on the information you supply us. Once a quotation is sent and accepted by ‘you’ the customer, you may book a site visit for a full-on site survey. After a site visit is conducted, we will send you a formal quotation for acceptance. This service is chargeable @ £135.00 fixed fee plus congestion, ulez or parking (if applicable) and an invoice will be raised for the visit before survey takes place. This cost will be redeemable if a purchase is made within a set time period.
  18. DELAYS, CANCELLATION & DOWNTIME
    Our callout and maintenance service is AD-HOC only. We will make a booking on a request of a customer, however we work on a time schedule and what is available to us and our staff. During the summer periods, waits may be longer sometimes for our engineers to attend. If an engineer attends in our busy period and a revisit is required, the revisit cannot be demanded by our client for a next day visit. We will show the client requiring a revisit more priority but we will only book if there is availability. If a client chooses to use another contractor if they cannot wait, this will not make your bill void or non payable for whatever may be outstanding.
    If an engineer is delayed to attend a call out or service, for unforeseen circumstances or due to traffic, delays on a previous fault that they are attending, and are later than expected, we will always advise our client. If it is nearing a company’s closing time and the engineer is delayed then this will be rescheduled by admin with the respectful client. Delays and cancellations can happen and although frustrating, sometimes there is nothing we can do about it apart from reschedule. If a client has attended a site to open up for an engineer, and an engineer has been delayed or cancelled given for the reasons above, this cannot be used against us or countered against us such as charging for their time or non-payment of a pending invoice or such.
  19. CONDEMNATION & RECCOMENDATIONS FOR FAULTY UNITS
    If an engineer has attended a site and found a system or systems need to be condemned and replaced we will advise this at the first instance. We will always advise our clients the best solution. Some repairs may be more costly than installation, or simply just very costly, or maybe not worth it at all depending on age of units and condition including how many components are broke on it. Once we have advised it is down to you (the client) to make a decision but we will oppose your decision and warn of possible consequences and outcomes. If you have opted for repairs, we do not take ANY responsibility if your systems do not operate as desired or operate at all due to other components failure. In such instances the client (you) may not counter us and request for refunds on spent items or components, service, equipment consumed or labour consumed or parking congestion etc or use the excuse of paying for equipment and spares, and ignore our labour. As we had already condemned your system or strongly advised for a replacement. All invoices will be demanded at end on of job and demanded to be paid. Furthermore any jobs such as these that are going against our teams recommendations, will be billed incrementally when works are carried out to ensure our bills are settled whatever the scenario, if your unit works or does not work.
