"Carnes & Sons are the best AC company I could find. I had 10 businesses quote my project but only Carnes & Sons had the right brand at the right prices. They upgraded my system with top of the line LED purifier... got it installed and working within a few days of initial contact. They helped me get through the 4th of July weekend with portable units u til they could install on Monday. That is customer service. They have my business going forward!..."

"Great price. I am absolutely thrilled with the service I received from Carnes and Sons Air Conditioning. I needed a full system replacement in a home with a challenging setup, and after receiving multiple quotes, Carnes was the only company with the creativity, expertise, and confidence to deliver exactly what I wanted. Their workmanship, attention to detail, responsiveness, fair pricing, and speed of installation were all top-notch. They made a complex project feel seamless and stress-free. It's rare to find a company that combines technical skill with such a high level of customer care. I am truly grateful for their work and would recommend Carnes and Sons without hesitation to anyone looking for HVAC service done the right way."
