TERMS & CONDITIONS

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the vawinecooling.com website and your engagement of services from VA Wine Cooling ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"), a California-licensed contractor (CSLB Lic#1055057). By using our website or engaging our services, you agree to these Terms. Please read them carefully.

1. Services

VA Wine Cooling provides wine cellar cooling system installation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and emergency service throughout Southern California. All services are performed by licensed, insured technicians in accordance with California state contractor requirements.

Diagnostic & Troubleshooting Services: Our troubleshooting and diagnostic services are assessment services. We identify and document system conditions and provide recommendations. We do not guarantee specific outcomes from diagnostic visits, as the condition of third-party equipment and components is beyond our control.

Installation Services: We provide installation of wine cellar cooling systems per manufacturer specifications and applicable California building codes. All installations are performed under our CSLB contractor license.

Maintenance Services: Maintenance plans include the specific services described in your service agreement. Maintenance visits reduce the risk of system failure but do not guarantee uninterrupted system performance.

2. Estimates and Pricing

All prices and estimates provided are for informational purposes only and are not binding until confirmed in writing. Final pricing may vary based on on-site conditions, parts availability, and scope changes. We will communicate any changes before proceeding with additional work. You are not obligated to proceed with services following a diagnostic visit.

3. Appointments and Cancellations

We request at least 24 hours' notice for appointment cancellations or reschedules. Emergency service appointments are dispatched on a best-effort basis and are subject to technician availability. We are not liable for damages arising from service delays due to circumstances outside our reasonable control.

4. Customer Responsibilities

To enable safe and effective service delivery, you agree to:

• Provide safe and reasonable access to your wine cellar and associated mechanical areas
• Disclose any known hazards, previous services, or system modifications
• Ensure the service area is clear and accessible at the scheduled appointment time
• Provide accurate information about your system and its symptoms

5. Payment Terms

Payment is due upon completion of services unless otherwise agreed in writing. We accept major credit cards, check, and approved electronic payment methods. Overdue balances may be subject to interest at the maximum rate permitted by California law. You are responsible for all costs of collection, including reasonable attorney's fees, for overdue accounts.
