How to Choose an AC Contractor
The right contractor diagnoses carefully, explains the options and does the work safely.
Request an AC technicianCheck the license
Air conditioning contractors in Texas are licensed by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). Ask for the license number and look it up on TDLR’s website.
Ask how they size systems
For replacements, a good contractor measures your home’s needs instead of just matching the old unit.
Get the price in writing
Ask what is included — equipment, labor, permits, warranty — before work starts.
Ask about warranties
Equipment and labor warranties are different. Ask who covers what.
Be wary of pressure
Take your time and never pay the full price before the work is done.
