"Star City HVAC was fantastic from start to finish. They responded quickly, explained everything clearly, and were incredibly friendly throughout the entire process. I had a gas system installed previously, but due to some home renovations, we needed to extend the gas line. Their team came out promptly and handled the job efficiently and professionally. In addition, they notified me of a water leak I wasn’t aware of so I could plan to care of it. I appreciate them going above and beyond. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable HVAC service."

Many providers assist with obtaining necessary permits. Confirm with your contractor.
