The Rizzo StoryFounded 1963 · Los Angeles → Temecula Valley

Three generations, since 1963.

It started in Los Angeles in 1963, when Camille Rizzo put the family name on the door. Three generations later, his grandson Mike runs it from Murrieta, serving the Temecula Valley — one family name on the door the whole way through.

The slow way№ 02 · Since 1963

A family business, the slow way

We're a family business, and we treat you as family, too. Camille Rizzo started it in Los Angeles in 1963 — refrigeration and air conditioning, the family name painted right on the door. Three generations later, we run it from Murrieta, and we've built our reputation the slow way: showing up on time, quoting straight, and doing installations we'd put our own name on, because we do.

The proof is in the margin: most of our work comes from someone telling their neighbor to call us. The job isn't done when the system runs — it's done when you'd make that call.

Painted under the lettering

“Where The Boss Still Works!”

It rides under the RIZZO lettering on every truck, and it means what it says — the owner still works his own jobs, under the same name that started this in 1963.

From Los Angeles to the valley

Three prints from the family archive — mounted at the size they survive, not blown up to match.

    Camille starts it

    Camille Rizzo — Mike's grandfather — founds the company in Los Angeles: refrigeration and air conditioning, the family name painted right on the door.

    The trade passes down the family — air conditioning, heating, refrigeration, electrical — and the company puts down roots in the Temecula Valley, the same name on every job.

  3. Today

What you can check

Sixty-plus years is easy to print and hard to fake. So here is the paper trail: a claim you can look up beats a claim you can't. The license number below links to the state's own contractor lookup; the rating links to the BBB's public profile.
