$95–$450OC HVAC Repair was founded in 2010 by Marcus Webb, a NATE Senior Certified HVAC Technician who built the company around one standard: every technician NATE certified, every quote flat-rate before work begins, every job permitted and inspected where required. Fifteen years and 3,800+ jobs later, our 92% single-visit repair completion rate reflects that commitment.
We specialize in Orange County's two most demanding HVAC environments: the 95 to 105°F summer heat of OC's inland cities (Anaheim, Fullerton, Yorba Linda, Irvine) that stresses AC compressors, and the coastal salt-air corrosion in Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, and San Clemente that accelerates condenser coil degradation. Every installation meets California Title 24 HERS requirements and qualifies for available SCE and SoCalGas rebates.
"AC went out on a 97°F July day. Called OC HVAC Repair at 10am, Marcus's crew was here by 11:20am. Capacitor failure — diagnosed, repaired, system running by noon. $285 flat rate, exactly as quoted. Couldn't believe how fast they came out to Irvine."
"Installed a new 3-ton Trane in our Newport Beach home. Marcus handled the permit, HERS test, SCE rebate paperwork — everything. $5,400 all-in, exactly as quoted. They also warned us about salt-air corrosion on the condenser cabinet that I never would have known about. Coated it on the spot."
"Furnace stopped working in December. Called at 7pm, tech was here by 8:30pm. Bad inducer motor — had the part on the van, fixed same night. $485 flat rate. I've used three other HVAC companies in Mission Viejo over the years. OC HVAC Repair is on another level."

15 years of NATE-certified HVAC contracting across Orange County. Founded OC HVAC Repair in 2010. Specialist in OC's two demanding environments: high-heat inland installations (Anaheim, Fullerton, Yorba Linda — summer design temps 95 to 105°F) and salt-air coastal systems (Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, Dana Point) where condenser corrosion reduces AC lifespan by 20 to 30%. Personally oversees all AC installations and California Title 24 HERS testing coordination. 96% first-pass city inspection rate across 412 Orange County HVAC installations. Certification verifiable at nate-hvac.org and cslb.ca.gov.

$3,800 to $8,500 covers a complete central AC installation in a typical OC home (1,600 to 2,800 sq ft), including equipment, labor, permit, and California Title 24 HERS testing. Our average across 412 OC AC installations is $5,200 for a 3-ton system. California requires a minimum SEER2 15 efficiency rating for new split-system AC installations as of 2023. High-efficiency systems (SEER2 18+) qualify for SCE rebates of $200 to $500 — we handle all rebate documentation. OC inland zone design temperature is 95 to 105°F (Anaheim, Fullerton, Yorba Linda); proper Manual J load calculation prevents the oversizing that is the leading cause of premature compressor failure.
15 to 18 years is the average AC lifespan in OC's inland communities (Irvine, Anaheim, Yorba Linda) based on our data from 3,800+ service calls. Coastal OC systems (Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, San Clemente, Seal Beach) average 12 to 14 years — salt-air corrosion reduces condenser lifespan by 20 to 30% versus inland installations. Key failure data: 47% of OC compressor failures occur in systems over 14 years old; 68% of furnace heat exchanger failures occur in units over 18 years old. Annual maintenance reduces emergency failure rates by 35% per ACCA industry data. When repair cost exceeds 50% of system replacement value, replacement delivers better long-term economics.
$350 to $750 covers whole-home duct cleaning for a typical OC home (1,600 to 2,800 sq ft), with an average cost of $485. The EPA recommends duct cleaning when ducts contain visible mold, pest infestation, or significant debris. OC-specific: homes built in the 1970s–1980s in Anaheim, Garden Grove, Westminster, and Fullerton frequently have original flex duct with microtears that pull attic debris into the airstream — these jobs average $550 to $750 and include duct sealing. Duct cleaning improves airflow efficiency by 15 to 25% in heavily soiled systems (NADCA data). We use NADCA-standard negative-pressure extraction on every job.
$200 to $950 covers heat pump repair in Orange County. Common repairs: reversing valve $350 to $750; refrigerant recharge $250 to $550; defrost board $195 to $375; capacitor or contactor $175 to $325. Heat pump adoption in OC increased 42% from 2022 to 2024 driven by SCE Clean Air rebates and California's 2035 gas appliance phase-out. Coastal OC communities (Dana Point, San Clemente, Laguna Beach) are ideal for heat pumps — mild coastal temps allow 95%+ efficiency year-round. All OC HVAC Repair technicians are trained on Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Daikin, and Mitsubishi heat pump systems.
92% of OC HVAC Repair service calls are completed in a single same-day visit, based on data from 3,800+ Orange County jobs since 2010.
