BOISE, ID - Attorney General Raúl Labrador announced this week that his office entered into a settlement agreement with Right Now Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing LLC, stemming from the investigation of consumer complaints regarding business practices.

Per the settlement, Right Now agrees to adopt nine requirements for their business operations, including transparent disclosure of costs in their advertising, provide hard copies of any contracts prior to beginning any work, ensuring any employees are lawfully licensed or registered, records retention for any complaints received by the company, and prompt refunds and rebates to which a customer is entitled.
