Report
I've been a customer for 25 yrs. it started when my outside unit stopped working (it was 3 yrs old). One company wanted to sell me a new outside unit, another company wanted to sell me a new outside fan. Central City gave over and in 3 min told me I have good news and bad news. Good news, its a $10 relay part, bad news I have to charge you for a 30min service call -- but I'll check out the unit during that time.
That WOW'ed me. I talked with the original owner David and he's the first AC guy I've talked to who understands heat transfer (being a chemical engineer, I understand it too). They have gone above and beyond with service. Linda is great in emergencies. Building my third house and will continue to use them.

We started using Central City Air because the previous owners used them. We've continued to use them for their prompt response times, prices, and honesty. Our AC unit has lived a good life, and will die anytime now. Central City Air has twice recommended replacing a small part, instead of trying to sell us a whole new unit. This week, we turned our heater on for the first time, and it didn't sound right.
The techs came out quickly, identified the problems, and we all worked with Linda in the main office to get our heat up and running just in time for the cold snap last night! Thanks so much to Central City Air for being reliable and affordable service that we can count on.
