What TOP AC does

TOP AC Inc. is a family-owned HVAC contractor founded in 2011 by Etai Kolet and headquartered in Canoga Park, California. The company installs, repairs, and maintains residential and commercial heating, cooling, ductwork, and indoor air quality systems across the Los Angeles metropolitan area, with a dispatch radius of approximately 10 miles from its Canoga Park service hub and active coverage of more than 30 neighborhoods spanning the San Fernando Valley, coastal communities (Venice, Marina del Rey, Malibu), and inland markets (Pasadena, Glendale). The service portfolio spans AC and heating installation and repair, ductwork and ventilation, indoor air quality solutions (HEPA, UV germicidal, humidifiers), emergency 24/7 response, and specialized offerings such as coastal salt-air corrosion protection, HVAC zoning, heat pump installation, and wildfire recovery HVAC services. Equipment sales include Mitsubishi Mini-Splits, Carrier AccuComfort variable-speed air conditioners (Platinum 17/18/20), and AccuLink/Gold/Silver thermostats.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer field service model with phone, online booking (via Workiz), and website request intake, dispatching NATE-certified technicians for on-site service. Revenue is generated across four streams: one-time installation jobs (e.g., Mitsubishi Mini-Split pre-season promo at $2,499 fully installed), per-service-call repair and diagnostic work ($85-$250 standard diagnostic, $125-$250 emergency), recurring monthly maintenance memberships under the TOP CLUB residential brand (TOP SMART $15/mo, TOP COMFORT $27/mo, TOP ELITE $35/mo with VIP scheduling, repair discounts, extended warranties, and a Reserve Bank equipment-replacement credit) and the parallel TOP CARE commercial program, plus transactional referral fees from Wells Fargo promotional financing facilitation. Customer acquisition runs through SEO-targeted neighborhood pages, an educational blog, social channels (Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram), Yelp/Google reviews, and email/SMS marketing.

Strategic positioning emphasizes local brand trust, premier dealer status with Mitsubishi Diamond, Carrier Elite, and Trane Comfort Specialists for premium installations, and partnerships with property managers (J&K, Decron), Airbnb/VRBO hosts, and luxury condo owners. The company is founder-owned, privately held, bootstrapped with no external funding disclosed, and operates with 11-50 employees.
