"I recently had So Cal Boys replace my 27 year old furnace and install a new Lennox heat pump, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience. George, the owner, was fantastic to work with--straightforward, honest, and genuinely down-to-earth. From the start, George explained all of my options clearly without any sales pressure. He took the time to answer my questions and helped me choose the right system for my home and budget. It was such a relief to talk to someone who actually listens and gives real advice, not a sales pitch. The installation was done quickly and professionally. The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and cleaned everything up before they left. The system has been running perfectly--it's quiet, efficient, and keeps the house comfortable. Their pricing was very fair, especially compared to other quotes I got. Everything was upfront and clearly explained, with no hidden costs. If you're looking for HVAC work, I highly recommend So Cal Boys!!"

"Had them do 2 units on my property. The first one was great, the pre team is great, and the guys who actually do the work. After the 2nd one, where I chose the more expensive option to get a Mitsubishi Heat Pump, the unit would not turn the fan on some of the time. I told them, and wasted insane amounts of time. They kept saying things like 'I am trying to understand what doesn't work.' 'Pretty simple, you choose to run the fan to simply circulate the air and the icon goes, Nest thinks it is on, but does not go on.' Then they said they were going to have a Mitsubishi tech come out and for sure it would get resolved. Never happened. Just listened to a book on Benjamin Franklin and he and John Adams had to share a bed one time while traveling and Adams went to close the window and Franklin said this place will be a tomb if you do. That was what 250 years ago? and HVAC is their business? Guess I will have to take them to court. The office staff post job is a clown car of silly children. So if your job goes great, they will be a good choice. If you run into an issue you will wish you hired ANYONE else. You've been warned."

FAQs for central a/c installation projects in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

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.
