Heating, Cooling & Air Quality

KMI A/C and Heating — Locally owned HVAC business serving Celina TX with residential and commercial service
Varsity Zone HVAC
They came out for what we thought was just an AC check and found our attic insulation had settled to about R-11 in the Prestonwood house. They re-insulated, sealed the ductwork, and our August electric bill dropped from $410 to $285. Their Season Ticket Maintenance Plan covers twice-yearly tune-ups with priority scheduling, and like DFW Air Cost, they back installations with a 10-year labor warranty — something you won’t find from most competitors. Over 40 years in the HVAC business — they think about the whole envelope, not just the equipment.
Rated 4.9/5 on Angi.
DFW Air Cost
Michael’s crew quoted us $2,400 less than the first company for a full system swap in Twin Creeks. They showed up with a printed breakdown — labor, parts, warranty terms — before touching anything. The tech spent twenty minutes explaining why our 18-year-old Trane was actually worth repairing instead of replacing, saving us about $8,000. Their $80 diagnostic fee gets waived if you go ahead with the repair, and every installation comes with a 10-year parts and labor warranty. That labor coverage alone is a big deal — most HVAC companies around here only warranty their labor for one or two years, and if a compressor fails in year three, you’re looking at $2,000-$4,000 just in labor to replace it. With DFW Air Cost, that’s covered for a full decade.
