Serving Byron
Byron is about 15 miles southeast via SR 4 and Byron Hwy from our Antioch shop, and we serve all of it, including Byron Hwy corridor, Camino Diablo, Byron Airport and Clifton Court Forebay. Byron is unincorporated, so permits go through Contra Costa County Building Inspection, and for homes on propane, a replacement is a good time to consider switching to a heat pump. Many statewide heat pump rebates are closed for 2026, so when we quote we check what's still open for your address, such as MCE's home energy programs for Byron customers and BayREN's income-qualified EASE Home program.

Questions before you call
Do I need a permit to replace my AC in Byron?
Yes. Replacing an AC, furnace or heat pump in California requires a mechanical permit - in Byron that comes from the Contra Costa County Dept. of Conservation & Development, Building Inspection. Most replacements also need Title 24 duct leakage testing verified by a third-party HERS rater. We pull the permit and coordinate the inspection.
How much does a new AC cost in Byron?
It depends on the size of the home, the type of system, the efficiency level and the condition of your ductwork. We give you a written quote after looking at the house, with more than one option.
Are there rebates for a new system in Byron?
Some, but fewer than before. TECH Clean California and California's HEEHRA heat pump rebates are fully reserved, and the federal 25C tax credit ended for systems installed after 2025. What's left for Byron homes is mainly MCE's home energy programs for Byron customers and BayREN's income-qualified EASE Home program. Programs change often, so we check what's open for your address when we quote.
