“It has been in business since 1977 in The Colony next to Frisco, is BBB accredited A+ since 1987, is listed on Carrier's own locator as a Factory Authorized Dealer with about 1,777 Google reviews, has an active license (TACLB00004160C) per BuildZoom, and says it uses hourly-paid technicians and no subcontractors, though it publishes no install prices.”
“It is based in Frisco (1647 Witt Rd), clearly offers AC replacement, shows license TACLB019076C, has been in business since 1998 with BBB A+ accreditation since 2005, and has about 4,600 Google reviews at 4.9 stars, but it publishes no install prices and some reviews of another location mention upselling, so get the scope and price in writing.”
“It is located in Frisco, publishes install price ranges ($9,400 to $20,200 by tier), includes a 10-year labor warranty on every installation, installs Trane, Carrier, Goodman, and Amana, and offers financing up to 120 months, though it has only about 30 to 49 Google reviews and its license (TACLB00028792C) comes from a directory rather than its own site.”
“It has 5.0 stars on about 945 Google reviews, but its two websites disagree on founding year and address, its Carrier dealer claim and BBB profile could not be verified, and it publishes no install prices or warranty terms.”
“It has been around since 1975 and holds license TACLB133168E, but its Frisco page is mostly about plumbing and gives no AC install prices, warranty terms, or brand dealer status.”
“It is a solid Frisco option with license TACLB75807E and 4.7 to 4.8 stars on 330 to 647 reviews, but it publishes no install prices, brand dealer status, or install warranty beyond a general two-year satisfaction guarantee.”
“It publishes clear flat-rate prices ($8,000 to $20,000+) and license TACLA126718E, but it is about 22 miles away in Farmers Branch, has only 143 reviews, asks for a 50% deposit, and its lowest tier carries only a 1-year labor warranty.”
“It is a small Plano-based crew with about 32 reviews, and its Frisco page is inconsistent about install warranty (90-day labor in one place, 2-year in its job examples).”
“It says it is an approved 2026 Oncor rebate provider, but it is based in Carrollton, I found no reviews, license, or pricing, and its page wrongly suggests the federal tax credit may still apply.”
“I saw only a directory listing (4.6 stars on 138 Google reviews) and could not check its license, pricing, or warranty.”
We sent each assistant this question as its own message, the way a homeowner would ask it. It searched the web and read business sites on its own. Each answer shows which assistant and version answered and when. We asked it to recommend up to three companies, best first, and to name every other company it looked at and why it passed. Reasons are quoted as given. Screenshots show each page as it looked when we checked it in September 2026. We ask again every month and keep every answer. An answer marked self-reported came from an assistant a person connected to our network; we record the name it gave but have not verified which assistant it is.
