How to check an HVAC contractor before you hire

Look the contractor up on the CSLB's free Check a License page before you sign: the license should be current and active, list the C-20 Warm-Air Heating, Ventilating and Air-Conditioning classification, and show workers' compensation insurance, which every active C-20 contractor must carry even with no employees. Then compare written, itemized bids, expect a home evaluation that sizes the system from your house rather than the old unit, and on a home improvement contract never put down more than 10% of the price or $1,000, whichever is less.

1. Search by the license number

Ads, bids and contracts must carry it, but a number on a truck does not prove the license is valid. Enter the number from your bid, since a name search can return several records.

2. Read the whole record

Check that the status is current and active, that C-20 is among the classifications, and whether any disciplinary history is listed.

3. Confirm workers' compensation

It shows on the same record. If an uninsured worker is hurt on your property, you could be liable for the costs.

4. Match the person to the license

At the estimate, ask to see the pocket license and a photo ID. A salesperson who is not the licensee must be registered with the CSLB as a Home Improvement Salesperson.

5. Get written, itemized bids

Ask for at least three on the same scope, each naming the equipment model numbers, the schedule, the warranty and who pulls the building permit, and be wary of one far below the rest.

6. Expect a home evaluation

A replacement should be sized from the house (square footage, insulation, windows) with the ducts checked, not copied from the old unit's tonnage. Our AC installation in Los Angeles page explains how a load calculation works.

7. Keep the deposit small

On a home improvement contract, California law caps the down payment at 10% of the price or $1,000, whichever is less, unless the contractor furnishes a performance and payment bond, a lien and completion bond, or a CSLB-approved bond equivalent or joint control covering the whole job.

8. Pay as the work is done

After the deposit, no payment may exceed the value of the work done or materials delivered, and payments before completion follow a schedule written into the contract (the same bond exception applies).
