Repairs

Once again I am a resident of California.The warranty on the ac unit has expired.I rented the home out with the understanding that the ac unit would be maintained by me.I have no problem with this but the tennants are very unreasonable as far as allowing me enough time to have the unit checked out.I live 2 hours away and they want it fixed as soon as they call. So I ask you by state law how much reasonable time do I have? And they also claim that there is a state law that would allow them to stay at a hotel at my expense.Is there any truth to this?

If its central air tell them 3 or 4 days maybe...califronia is in a heat wave and a Power emergency and trying to get a repairman is impossible.

A window unit?....tell them to buy one and you will reimburse them,

Both of you have to be flexible....

YES they can stay at a hotel....but they have to pay for it not you!.....think common sense if you dont get there for a week then it takes a week for them to fix it, while its 95 degrees out....then a hotel room is something you should pay for....to keep the peace...but for a day or two or three no way!

And why did you let the warranty expire on a central air unit? Not bright....

You should always have a maintence contract for it, especially if you live 2 hours away, then you or the tenat would have called them and it would have been fixed by now.
