"Efficiency Air Inc is a fabulous company with excellent customer service and trained professional installers. I received a quote to install a mini split air conditioner/heat pump and we were overjoyed of the quality of work we received. They showed up on time and installed the system with ease. The install Manager â Deanâ was a true leader and got everything needed accomplished. I would recommend Dean and crew to anyone needing quality service. Thank you again for everything. Your lifetime customer Nathaniel G Santa Clarita, CA"

"Mike reached out to me on a Sunday morning after having gone to Home adviser after my previous AC guy refused service. He showed up when he said he would. Diagnosed and explain the situation and parts that needed replacement and considering part was all the way in Maryland he came thru for me and I'm very grateful for his services. Needed A/C working with this heat. Thank you Mike."

"Air ducts needed cleaning after heat pump installed. One duct was discovered to be not working at all due to improper installation. Bob agreed to come back, without extra charge, after HVAC specialists corrected duct work. Bob was prompt, very courteous and respectful of our home and yard. So glad to have had this done and would definitely hire Air Flow Pro again!"

They were on time, professional, and had our new heater up and running with just the two scheduled visits. I will certainly use them again when we are ready to have our air conditioner replaced.


I would like to add that we received a call telling us that they would like to come out and take care of a scheduled inspection and service  of our air-conditioner. I told them that I hadn't scheduled that and was then informed that it was complimentary. I scheduled a 7am appointment so that I could leave for work on time. The Tech showed up on time, inspected, cleaned, and serviced our air-conditioner within the time frame that was promised. I was able to get to work on time and the air conditioner is working wonderfully. I have seen a couple of reviews that state they are a bit high priced but I find that you truly get what you pay for. Our heater was wonderful this last winter and the complimentary cleaning and servicing of our air conditioner was just an added bonus. Once again I would very highly recommend them.

  Feb-2016  New update for this wonderful company. We had a complimentary heater inspection and check-up and once again they were able to accommodate my work schedule. They came out early, checked and cleaned, replaced the filter, and got done in time for me to head off to work. They are very professional and I appreciate that.  Thanks again Wightons.

"Well this is an easy review to write. I received bids from no fewer than 5 companies, and had a wide range of experiences. But SoCal Climate Control, was second lowest in price (the lowest was for much lesser quality equipment), but highest in value. I have a home built in the 40's, and while they asked about/ offered other services, it never had the feeling of an up-sale. In fact, they said I was over buying initially (what I asked for). I followed their advise and couldn't be happier. I replace 3 window AC units with a 4 head 3.5 ton mini split system. I had it installed in early May (it is now December) and this had to be the most comfortable summer ever in this house. The units in the bedrooms are so quiet I can hear quartz wall clocks ticking over them. They are also heat pumps, which will also replace my gas wall furnace. The install crew were very professional, very careful, and super polite. Thank you guys, a super job and a super product."

"I not only had an old furnace replaced but also had whole house air conditioning added. Very professional family business. Their estimate beat out two other HVAC businesses here in Lompoc⠦⠦ one of them by thousands of dollars. It paid to get three estimates. Daniel was easy to work with and honest. One of the other HVAC businesses in Lompoc is interested in selling you all kinds of stuff that increased his estimate by thousands of dollars. I highly recommend Ace Heating & AC."

Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

You can buy R-22 refrigerant for your home air-conditioning system through your local AC repair specialist, who can also refill your R-22 system as needed. You may find that the cost of R-22 has gone up due to shortages as the EPA banned this refrigerant. Ask your pro to inspect your system for any leaks or issues.

Your heating and cooling systems cost you the most on your electric bill and make up 50% of your bill on average. Your washing machine, dryer, oven, and stove contribute significantly to your electric bill as well. Lights, fans, and smaller electronics add up, but aren’t the biggest energy consumers. You can reduce your power usage by setting optimal temperatures on your thermostat and investing in energy-efficient appliances.

It depends on the specifics of your warranty. The motor is likely not covered if you’re working with a limited warranty. The same goes for other components like the compressor and evaporator coil. Some extended warranties will cover the blower and fan motor, so read the fine print before signing up. Additionally, the manufacturer may offer a warranty for the parts, including the motor, though there’s likely to be a strict time limit for this coverage.

The time it takes for an air conditioner to dry fully after cleaning depends on the unit's size and humidity levels. Most units will dry within two to four hours after cleaning, but check the manufacturer's recommendations for drying times. Make sure to leave the unit off until it's completely dry.

When deciding whether to repair or replace your air conditioner, several factors should be considered. It is generally worth repairing the unit if it's less than 10 years old, the warranty is still active, and you're dealing with a one-off issue. Most central AC units last about 15 years, while window units last 8 to 10 years. If your unit is approaching or has surpassed the 10-year mark and requires frequent or costly repairs (e.g., over $5,000), replacement is often the more sensible long-term investment. For older, inefficient, or out-of-warranty units experiencing multiple problems, replacing it is typically the better choice.
