These services are free for all eligible residential and commercial LADWP customers.

I think they are billing the program $675 for everything.
Had the service done the other day by JWS Heating and Air. Took about two hours. My system didn't need any new refrigerant, but they did a full check up on my AC and installed the 3rd Gen nest.
The Nest they installed was the "Pro" version, which apparently comes with a 5 year warranty as opposed to the normal warranty.
They also did free Freon and air filter replacement
Schedule through the yelp chat very quickly , the technician that came was excellent . Very professional, clean and he explained every step!

They're installing the less expensive Nest E now for the Ladwp program.
