How TNT Fix Works
Smart home automation + certified HVAC expertise — done the right way.

We serve the Phoenix Metro area, Coolidge, and Casa Grande with transparent pricing and online booking. No sales pressure. No jargon. Just professional work and a home that behaves.

We’re not just another HVAC company or just another smart home installer. We’re the rare combination of certified HVAC capability and advanced smart home integration.
Certified HVAC Capability
Real diagnostics, tune-ups, and repairs — including refrigerant work where applicable — with the certifications to do it properly.
Home Assistant Experts
We build automations that go beyond basic voice commands — using sensors, schedules, logic, and local control when possible.
Education-First, No Lock-In
We train you to use your system confidently. You can keep improving it yourself — or call us when you want more.
Transparent Pricing + Online Booking
See pricing up front, book quickly, and get clear expectations. No phone tag and no surprise add-ons.
Our Process
Step 1: Book Online (2 minutes)
Choose the service that fits your goal — smart home, HVAC, or home repairs — and book online. You’ll get confirmation with all details.
Step 2: We Arrive On Time & Get to Work
We show up when we say we will, protect your home, and work clean. We’ll explain what we’re doing in plain English — and what options you have if choices come up.
Step 3: Test, Verify, Train
Before we leave, we verify the system works the way it should and walk you through how to use it. The goal is a home that behaves — not a mystery setup you’re afraid to touch.
Step 4: Follow-Up When You Want It
Want to add devices, improve automations, or keep your HVAC tuned and efficient? Book a follow-up service anytime.

Voice assistants are great for controlling individual devices. But if you want a home that reacts intelligently to time, presence, sensors, and conditions, you need a proper automation brain.
What Home Assistant Adds
- Real automations: time + location + sensors + logic (not just “turn on the lights”).
- Local control: reduce cloud dependency where possible for speed and privacy.
- One hub: fewer apps, fewer “device offline” headaches.
- Designed for humans: dashboards and routines that fit how you actually live.
HVAC: Certified Work, Honest Guidance
Arizona HVAC is brutal on equipment. Dust, heat, and long run-times expose weak components fast. Our approach is preventative when possible, and diagnostic when needed — with clear recommendations.
Tune-Up vs. Full Inspection
- Tune-Up: preventive maintenance — cleaning, testing, and minor adjustments.
- Full Inspection: deeper evaluation with performance analysis and planning recommendations.
Think of a tune-up like an oil change; a full inspection is like getting a mechanic’s full evaluation before a road trip.
Meet Your Technicians
No sales reps. No hand-offs. You’re working with the people doing the work — and we take that personally.

Payment Information
Payment Terms
Jobs Under $500: Full payment is due upon completion of work.
Jobs Over $500:
- All equipment, appliances, and/or supplies must be paid in full before work begins
- 50% of labor costs are due prior to work commencing
- Remaining balance is due upon completion
We do not offer credit or carry balances forward. Third-party financing options are available; however, written confirmation of approval from the lender must be received before work can be scheduled.
Preferred Payment Methods No Fees
We're a small, local business and we keep our pricing honest and our overhead low. The following payment methods cost us nothing to process, which means we can pass those savings directly to you:
- Cash
- Zelle
- Venmo
- PayPal (Friends & Family)
- Cash App
- Chime
- Personal or Business Check (payable to Mr. Tippy's LLC)
- ACH / Direct Bank Transfer
These options are fast, simple, and help us keep your costs down. We genuinely appreciate customers who choose one of these methods — it allows us to focus on the work, not on processing fees.
Credit & Debit Card Payments
We understand that sometimes a card is the most convenient option, and we're happy to accept them.
However, payment processors charge us between 2.9%–3.5% on every transaction. Rather than build those fees into everyone's pricing — including customers who pay with cash or direct transfer — we apply a 3.5% processing fee to credit and debit card transactions.
This keeps our base pricing fair for everyone.
Accepted Cards: Visa • Mastercard • American Express • Discover
Example: $500 service + $17.50 processing fee = $517.50 total
Why We Do It This Way
Big companies bury credit card fees in their prices — you pay them whether you use a card or not. We don't think that's fair to customers who bring cash or pay direct.
By keeping fees separate and transparent, you choose how you want to pay and only cover the costs that apply to your payment method. No hidden markups, no games.
Third-Party Financing
We do not offer in-house credit or payment plans. If you need financing, you're welcome to arrange it through a third-party lender of your choice. Written confirmation of approval must be received before work is scheduled.
