An AC tune-up, as defined by this program, is an inspection, cleaning, and servicing of your air conditioning system. This can include cleaning and/or replacing air filters, a check of air flow, and checking evaporator and condenser coils. A tune-up does not include any repairs.

The rebate is available from April 1 through October 1. Any service completed outside of the time frame will not be eligible for the rebate. Rebates are available one time per year per home. Rebates are available until funds are exhausted.

The only requirement is that the contractor must be licensed in the State of California, and it is recommended that the ACCA Standard 4 endorsed set of inspection tasks are used for the service.

Rebate processing can take 3–5 business days. Once the rebate is processed, it can take 30–90 days to receive your rebate.
