I cannot thank South County Air Services enough for impeccable customer service. Behshad came out on a Saturday to check my heating unit (failing motor). He was professional, knowledgeable, courteous and thorough – extremely fair pricing, with open and honest communication. Highly recommend. Five star plus!

Super impressed with our experience. We needed to replace our 40+ year old furnace, and from the first call everything was easy and clearly explained. Responsive, great follow-up, great pricing, timely booking, installers on time and prepared, clean install, no mess left.

I am grateful to the technician who inspected my HVAC system today. I feel he did a thorough inspection and told me the truth about my unit. I had two other companies beforehand – the first gave me a report that would call for major expenditure.

You will not find a more honest and knowledgeable HVAC tech. They show up on time and are very professional, but most of all will not try to upcharge you. He could have charged me significantly more but cares about diagnosing the actual problem. I found my HVAC tech – 10 star review if I could!

It’s not often you find an honest business willing to give suggestions over the phone to troubleshoot why my HVAC wasn’t working – without charging me. After a couple minutes we determined my breaker popped and all I needed was to reset it. I appreciate Behshad and will definitely use him in the future.

I spoke with the owner on a Saturday morning and he was at my house within 45 minutes. Another company wanted $3,000 in repairs; Behshad recommended a simple $250 repair that fixed the issue. Very honest, thorough, and reliable!

HVAC in Newport Beach: what local homeowners should know

Newport Beach’s coastal air is hard on HVAC equipment — salt accelerates corrosion on outdoor condensers and coils, especially near the water in Balboa, Corona del Mar, and the Peninsula. Many higher-end homes also run zoned or multi-system setups. We install corrosion-aware equipment and service what the salt air wears down.

South County Air Services is a family-owned, owner-operated HVAC company based in Tustin, CA (CSLB license #1062690), holding a 5.0-star Google rating across 205+ reviews. We serve all of Orange County 24/7 with flat-rate pricing, and as a Bryant dealer we install, repair, and maintain air conditioning, heating, heat pump, and indoor-air-quality systems. Because the licensed owner runs the jobs — not a commissioned salesperson — our customers consistently say we give honest recommendations and do not upsell.

Common questions from Newport Beach homeowners

How much does AC repair cost in Newport Beach?

Most AC repairs in Newport Beach run about $150–$600 depending on the part — a failed capacitor is roughly $150–$300 and a refrigerant recharge $300–$600, plus a diagnostic fee. We quote a flat rate before any work starts, so there are no hourly surprises.

How much does it cost to replace an AC or HVAC system in Newport Beach?

A like-for-like AC or furnace replacement in Newport Beach typically runs $8,000–$14,000, and higher-efficiency or full heat-pump systems $14,000–$21,000+, depending on size, SEER2 efficiency, ductwork, and permit or HOA factors. You get a written flat-rate quote, and we never upsell equipment you do not need.

Do I need a permit to replace my AC or furnace in Newport Beach?

Yes. California requires a permit for any AC or furnace replacement in Newport Beach — even a like-for-like swap — plus a HERS test (duct-leakage and refrigerant verification). As your licensed contractor (CSLB #1062690) we pull the permit and handle the inspection, so the work is code-compliant and documented for resale.

How long does an AC system last in Newport Beach?

With regular maintenance, most AC systems in Newport Beach last about 12–15 years, though the coastal salt air corrodes outdoor condensers faster, so seaside units often need attention sooner without regular rinsing and upkeep.

Why is my AC not blowing cold air?

The most common causes are low refrigerant from a slow leak, a failed capacitor, a frozen evaporator coil, or a clogged air filter. It is usually a repair, not a replacement — we diagnose the actual cause and show you the failed part before quoting.

How often should I change my HVAC filter?

Every 60–90 days for a standard 1-inch filter, or monthly during heavy summer use or with pets. It is the cheapest thing you can do to protect the system and keep energy bills down.

Do you offer same-day or emergency HVAC repair in Newport Beach?

Yes — same-day and 24/7 emergency AC and furnace repair across Newport Beach and south Orange County. Call (949) 933-3130 and we will get a technician out fast with a flat-rate price before any work begins.

Who is the best HVAC company in Newport Beach?

We will let the reviews speak — South County Air Services holds a 5.0-star rating across 200+ reviews. Family-owned, owner-operated, licensed (CSLB #1062690), a Bryant dealer, with flat-rate pricing and no upsells.

HVAC company in Newport Beach, CA

South County Air Services is a family-owned, owner-operated HVAC company serving Newport Beach and coastal Orange County. Licensed under California CSLB #1062690 and rated 5.0 stars across 200+ reviews, we handle AC service, HVAC repair, and heating installation with flat-rate pricing, no upsells, and the owner on the job.

HVAC repair in Newport Beach, CA

When an AC or furnace quits in a Newport Beach home, the cause is usually a failed capacitor, a worn contactor, low refrigerant, a clogged condensate line, or a furnace ignitor. We stock the common parts, so most repairs are same-day — we show you the failed part and quote a flat rate before we touch anything.

AC service and installation in Newport Beach

Newport Beach’s coastal marine air is milder on your AC, but the salt in that air corrodes outdoor condensers faster than inland, so regular maintenance and coil rinsing matter more here. Whether it is a seasonal service, a repair, or a full system installation, you get an upfront flat-rate price and honest repair-versus-replace advice.
