While away on vacation our AC went out. My elderly mother lives with us so it was important to make sure she had air since outside temps were high 90's. I made arrangements from out of state for Alvarez to come take a look. I called mid day on Wednesday and a tech was there that afternoon. I forget the tech's name…

Thank you APAC! My mothers AC went out while she was in the hospital. I called another company out and their technician had decided to sell me a new unit instead of attempt to correct any issues. I got quoted 12k to replace because “it was beyond repair”. I called out APAC on the advice of an old school friend and…
