Alameda County jurisdictions require a dedicated GFCI-protected breaker for the outdoor condenser. We size and install this as part of the electrical scope so your project passes inspection the first time.
Local inspectors expect the refrigerant line set to be painted to match your home's exterior. Painting the line set is the homeowner's responsibility after install — we leave it clean and paint-ready.

These guys are commercial grade crew!
My wife handles hundreds of thousands of square feet for work, and her comment about electric air was, "These guys are commercial grade crew; professional, courteous, clean, quick and efficient." I can't think of higher praise!
Brett Gentry
The team is fantastic!
The team is fantastic, from Jeremy and the informational/sales side of the house to the install crew, especially Johntae. I felt very informed at every step, equipment choices to install steps.
Dustin Gibbs
The installation team was great!
The installation team was great -- they worked through the old-house issues and managed to route the line neatly into the attic for the ceiling cassette. We worked with the designer to create a 4-zone system that is perfectly sized for our space.
