"We needed to have our ancient a/c replaced, and we opted to replace our aging heating system at the same time. Tim was wonderful to work with. My husband and I appreciated the time he spent with us. He went over every aspect of the process, and the equipment that he recommended. We both felt that we were able to make a well-informed decision. I had gotten four other estimates from other highly rated companies, but Efficiency Air gave us the best quote, as well as the best warranties. The price included the cost of inspections, which some of the other quotes did not. Tim and his wonderful team delivered everything he said they would. They were all pros. He was onsite for the installation, and he was there at the finish line. Everything went very smoothly. They had the whole project finished in under 5 hours. Throughout the process, Tim was available, and he made us feel very well taken care of. I am so glad we opted to work with Efficiency Air. "

"I would like to share with you how I was treated by your company. In the month of December 2016. I purchased a heating system from your company. I do live in Oxnard and I know that is quite a way for your company but I do appreciate that you did that for me. All went down as planned and the guys that came out were very nice and helpful. But then a couple of years later the heater went out so I called your office to see if the heater was under warranty and to have someone come out and fix the problem. I spoke to Susan several times. The end result was that I lived too far and that your company was very busy and that I should find another heating company in my area. She was very rude to me and had very poor customer service. I did call another heating company and the problem was fixed after another $400.00. It was a transformer that went down. Susan said to me "you liked the price, right". I said yes. She said then I would suggest you look on yelp to find another company in your area. So unprofessional. I was in shock and didn't know how to respond."

Central a/c installations FAQs
If you’re replacing an old AC system with a new unit, you can usually clean and repair the old ductwork without having to conduct a full replacement. Cleaning HVAC ducts typically costs around $400, while repairs range from $200 to $1,000. In contrast, installing new ductwork can range from $1,000 to $5,000, making it far more costly than cleaning or fixing existing ducts. HVAC installation costs an average of $7,000 to replace a full system, so staying on top of maintenance and repairs is important.
AC cost efficiency depends on the size of your space and your long-term plans for your home. If you only need to cool a small area, a portable AC unit has a low upfront cost. Heat pumps are typically the most cost-effective option if you want to cool an entire home or improve the resale value. They provide strong cooling while being energy-efficient, which saves you money on your utility bills compared to most other AC types.
Installing a central AC unit typically takes four to eight hours if your home already has ductwork in place. However, if new ductwork needs to be installed, this can add another one to two days of labor to your project.
