If a blower comes in for repair and is deemed to be above the Max Preauthorized Repair Price (parts and labor cost is equal to or above the preauthorized value listed in the preauthorized chart above), the customer will be notified. These units can still be repaired; however, additional authorization will be required. If the customer denies the repair, a diagnosis fee ($500) will be charged.

Preauthorized Price Repair Disclaimers:
  • Shipping and return shipping are paid by the customer.
  • We recommend shipping with “Delivery signature required.”
  • Customer is responsible for the machine until GMP receives and signs for it at our shipping dock.
Repair Service Preauthorization:

To provide faster turnaround times and reduce delays, GMP now requires a Repair Preauthorization before your cable blower is shipped to our repair facility.
This preauthorization allows our technicians to begin diagnosing and repairing your machine immediately upon arrival, eliminating the wait for an estimate approval and helping get your equipment back in service as quickly as possible.
 

How it works:
  • A signed Repair Preauthorization is required before you ship your machine to GMP.
  • If the final repair cost is less than the preauthorized amount, GMP will automatically refund the difference.
  • If the repair requires additional work and the cost exceeds the preauthorized amount, a GMP Customer Service Representative will contact you with the repair details and obtain your approval before any additional work is completed. If you choose to proceed, you will be invoiced for the remaining balance.

Our goal is to streamline the repair process, minimize downtime, and return your equipment to you as quickly as possible while keeping you informed every step of the way.

Payment Options
  • Preauthorization – a preauthorization credit card hold must be submitted before shipping out the unit.
  • P.O.- Submit P.O. documents to customer Service Rep at time of submitting the Repair Request Form.
  • Check- GMP does not accept checks.
