man and the
cooling system.
All Surge cooling systems are backed by a warranty
that covers virtually any equipment-related problem.
But what about service'?
Who guarantees the work of the man who takes care of
your cooling system year in apd year out”?
We have a unique and very simple service policy. It
works like this Whenever we perform maintenance on your
cooling system, you pay us what we say you owe If you
aren’t completely satisfied that our price is right and fair,
send your bill to the Surge office in Oak Brook, Illinois, and
every cent we charged you for labor will be refunded.
This service policy extends to all Surge cooling
equipment including ice builders, pre-coolers and all sizes
and types of bulk tanks. (If you’re already one of our
customers, you probably know that this service policy
actually extends to all Surge equipment for as long as
you own it)
Surge has followed this policy for more than 25 years
because they have confidence in the men who perform
Surge service
So can you. Just remember* Surge stands behind the
man and the cooling system CIID/*C
