Installation and repair
One is the system that used to cool and now doesn't. The other is a house that has never had air conditioning in it at all. Alongside repairs we install air conditioners, and when a unit is genuinely past saving we will tell you that instead of selling you a repair that will not last.
Either way the order is the same. The technician diagnoses the system on site and gives you the exact price before the work starts. Approve it and we go ahead. Decline it and you pay the diagnostic fee and nothing else — and the service call is free when the repair goes ahead.
Furnaces and wall heaters sit on the heating page instead, and commercial refrigeration — walk-ins, reach-ins and prep tables — has moved to commercial repair. One number covers all of it: (888) 622-2799, seven days a week from 7am to 8pm, with no extra charge for an evening or a weekend.
What we work on
Tell us what the system is doing and you will usually have an answer before a technician leaves the shop.
Homes and businesses alike — repair, tune-ups and new installations. Blowing warm, tripping the breaker, running all afternoon without the room getting any cooler, icing up, or an outdoor condenser making a noise it did not make last summer.
One outdoor unit that cools in summer and heats in winter, instead of an air conditioner and a furnace sitting side by side. We size the system to the house rather than to a catalogue, deal with the electrical side, and set the controls up so the unit and the thermostat are not working against each other.
Mini-splits for the rooms the ducts never reached — a converted garage, an addition, an attic office, or an older Bay Area house with no ductwork in it at all. One outdoor unit runs several indoor heads, each on its own thermostat, and the wall takes a three-inch hole instead of a duct run.
New duct runs, replacements for the ones that were never sized properly, and the sealing and insulation that stop cooled air disappearing into the crawl space. When some rooms never get cool while others freeze, it is usually the ducts rather than the unit.
How it works
The same order every time, whether it is a tune-up in Fremont or a new system going into a house in San Jose.
Symptoms
Describe what the system is doing over the phone and we will usually tell you what it is likely to be before anyone is sent out — no charge for that.
