AC Installation and Replacement in Burbank

Right-sized replacement systems installed to code, permitted, and HERS verified.

Inland Valley summers sit in the high 90s and push past 105 during a Santa Ana event, and the heat holds overnight so a system never gets its usual evening recovery.

What we see most in the Valley

The failures we see most are run capacitors cooked by attic heat, condenser coils packed with Santa Ana dust, and systems that were oversized on replacement and now short cycle.

Much of the Valley is 1950s and 1960s tract housing where the ductwork runs through an uninsulated attic that hits 140 degrees, so duct leakage costs more here than the condenser ever will.

What Does AC Repair Cost in Burbank?

Ranges below are typical Los Angeles market figures reported by industry cost guides in 2026, not our quote. Your actual price depends on the part, the system and access, and you get that number from us before any work begins.

In Los Angeles County, most air conditioning repairs land between $339 and $488, with a service call and diagnosis running about $89 to $149. What decides your number is which part failed. A capacitor, the most common cause of a system that will not start, is roughly $175 to $400. A condenser fan motor is $200 to $700. A compressor is $1,200 to $2,800, which is usually the point where replacing the system makes more sense than repairing it. Those are published Los Angeles market ranges rather than our quote: we give you the exact price before any work starts.

Typical Los Angeles air conditioning cost ranges
JobTypical LA rangeWhat moves the number
Service call and diagnosis$89 to $149Waived or credited by some companies once you approve the repair.
Capacitor or contactor$175 to $400The cheapest common failure, and the most frequent cause of a no-start.
Condenser fan motor$200 to $700Less when the part is still under manufacturer warranty.
Most common repairs overall$339 to $488The typical middle of the market for a straightforward fault.
Compressor replacement$1,200 to $2,800Often the point where replacing the system beats repairing it.
Condenser replacement$1,200 to $4,200Depends heavily on tonnage and refrigerant type.
Ductless mini-split, single zone$2,000 to $6,500Per zone. Multi-zone systems run higher.
Full system changeout$11,000 to $20,000+LA runs roughly 10 to 20 percent above the state average on labour and permits.

California costs more than most states for a reason. Title 24 requires a permit and, on most changeouts, HERS verification by an independent rater. Labour is higher here, and older homes often need duct or electrical work the quote has to cover. A contractor who comes in far below these ranges is usually skipping the permit, and that surfaces at resale.

Questions About Installation

How quickly can you come out in Burbank?
We answer 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and give you a real arrival window when you call. In a heat wave the whole the Valley books up quickly, so call early in the day if you can.
What does this cost?
It depends on what we find, and a firm number over the phone before anyone has looked at the system would be a guess. You get the full price before any work starts, so you approve it with the number in front of you. There is no separate after-hours surcharge and no hidden diagnostic add-on.
Do I need a permit to replace my system?
California is stricter than most states about this. Replacing a condenser or an air handler in Los Angeles County requires a permit, and under Title 24 most changeouts also require HERS verification, where an independent rater tests duct leakage and confirms the refrigerant charge is correct. A contractor who offers to skip the permit is not saving you money. It surfaces at resale, and it voids most manufacturer warranties.
How do you size the replacement?
With a Manual J load calculation, which accounts for your square footage, insulation, window area and orientation. We do not simply match the tonnage of the old unit. Oversized systems are the single most common mistake in this trade: they cool fast, shut off before they dehumidify, and short cycle themselves to an early grave. A right-sized system runs longer and lasts longer.
Which refrigerant will my new system use?
Two refrigerants matter right now. R-410A is what most systems installed since the mid-2000s use. R-22 was phased out in 2020, so if your system still runs it, repairs get expensive because the refrigerant itself is scarce. New equipment is moving to R-454B, a lower-GWP replacement, which is worth knowing about if you are choosing between repairing an old system and replacing it now.
How long does an installation take?
A straight changeout on an existing, sound duct system is usually a single day. Add time if the ductwork needs replacing, the electrical needs upgrading, or the pad and line set have to move. HERS verification is scheduled after the install and is performed by an independent third-party rater, not by us, which is the point of it.
