Frequently Asked Questions

What does an AC diagnostic cost in Folsom?
A standard diagnostic typically runs $79–$149 depending on time of day. The fee is often waived if you proceed with the repair that day. The contractor gives you the firm number before any work starts.
How long does a typical AC repair take?
Most repairs (capacitor, contactor, fan motor, thermostat, refrigerant top-off) finish in 60–90 minutes once the contractor is on site. Larger jobs that require a part order are usually completed within 24–48 hours.
Do the contractors warranty their work?
Yes — every contractor in our network provides a warranty on repairs. Typical terms are 90 days on parts and labor for repairs, with 10-year manufacturer warranties and 1-year labor on new installations. Specifics are spelled out in your written quote.
Which AC brands do contractors service?
