   I’m probably a little late to this conversation but I want to comment on the   
   changes of HVAC systems over the last couple of years and going into 2024 for   
   us at Lee’s Air, Plumbing, & Heating an AC and plumbing company in Fresno,   
   CA. With this    
   pandemic, and the passing of the Inflation Reduction Act to Make Home More   
   Energy Efficient, we agree here in Fresno, CA that the cost has risen due to   
   shortage of supplies and increase cost of goods and services such as cooper,   
   refrigerant, and other    
   metals in HVAC systems. What is more, we at Lee’s Air, with the change to a   
   new more energy-efficient and eco friendly refrigerant (R-32) and higher seer   
   units in the coming years, these units are becoming more complex calling for a   
   better more skilled    
   AC technicians to troubleshoot the ac systems. We do pay a premium and offers   
   competitive perks such as healthcare, 401ks, and year-round training to have   
   these skilled individuals but I’m noticing other companies are not which   
   will lead to higher cost    
   for these services over time due to a lack of skilled tradesman. Check out   
   www.leesair.com to see what we are doing.
