Cool Air Partnership

McWilliams & Walden Inc. Partners with the Cool Air Rebate Program to Keep You Cool and Improve Air Quality

At McWilliams & Walden Inc., we’re excited to announce our partnership with the Cool Air Rebate Program (CAR)—an initiative that not only helps you save on air conditioning repairs but also contributes to cleaner air for our community. This innovative program is designed to assist Californians in repairing leaking air conditioning systems while reducing harmful emissions that contribute to poor air quality.

What is the Cool Air Rebate Program?

The Cool Air Rebate Program offers financial assistance to eligible California residents, covering up to 80% of air conditioning repair costs for vehicles with leaking AC systems that use R-134a refrigerant. Approved applicants can receive coverage of up to $1,500, significantly reducing the cost of repairs while helping to improve both vehicle performance and community health.

How Does It Work?

Participating in the program is simple and straightforward:

• Free Testing and Diagnosis: Start with a free AC system test and diagnosis to determine if your vehicle is eligible for repair coverage under the program.
• Comprehensive Repair Coverage: If approved, the program will cover 80% of the repair costs, leaving you responsible for only 20%—paid directly to the repair shop.
• Funding Source: The program is funded by unclaimed deposits on cans of R-134a refrigerant sold in California, in partnership with the California Air Resources Board and the Car Care Council.

Why Participate in the Cool Air Rebate Program? 

• Significant Savings: Save up to $1,500 on repairs for eligible vehicles, making necessary AC maintenance more affordable.
• Cleaner Air for All: Leaking AC systems release harmful refrigerants that contribute to poor air quality. By fixing these systems, you’re helping to reduce emissions and improve public health. 
• Healthier Communities: Poor air quality impacts everyone, especially those with asthma or other respiratory conditions. Your participation helps create a cleaner, healthier environment for your family and neighbors.
• Cooler Commutes: With a properly functioning AC system, your drives will be more comfortable, especially during California’s hot summers.
