We service all major brands, pull permits when required, and back every installation with a satisfaction guarantee.
AC repair and replacement
When your air conditioner stops cooling in San Ramon, fast and accurate diagnosis is what matters most. Our technicians identify the root cause of the problem, not just the symptom, so the repair holds up through the rest of the season and beyond. We handle refrigerant leaks, failed capacitors, condenser fan motors, evaporator coil issues, and control board failures across all major brands. If your system is older and a repair is not the right financial move, we will tell you that clearly and walk you through replacement options without pressure. We install high-efficiency AC systems and provide written estimates before any work begins.
Furnace repair and replacement
San Ramon winters are mild by most standards, but a failed furnace is still a failed furnace. We diagnose and repair gas furnaces, electric furnaces, and heat pump air handlers across the 94582 and 94583 zip codes, with same-day and next-day availability for no-heat situations. If your furnace is 15 years or older, we will give you an honest comparison of repair costs versus replacement value so you can make a fully informed decision. We install high-efficiency systems from Lennox, Carrier, and Bosch, and financing is available for qualified homeowners.
Heat pump installation and service
Heat pumps are now the most cost-effective heating and cooling solution for most San Ramon homes, delivering significantly lower energy bills compared to traditional gas furnace and AC systems. As an Premier dealer for leading heat pump manufacturers, we handle complete heat pump installations from load calculation and equipment selection through permit, installation, and startup. We also service and repair existing heat pump systems, including refrigerant recharges, reversing valve replacements, and defrost control repairs. We help every customer understand available utility rebates and state incentives before any project begins.

We serve small and mid-size commercial properties throughout San Ramon, including retail spaces, medical offices, and light industrial facilities. Our commercial services include rooftop unit repair and replacement, light commercial system installations, and ongoing maintenance plans tailored to your building's usage and equipment. We also handle duct repair and replacement for both residential and commercial properties, including neighborhood-specific ductwork repairs in areas like Gale Ranch, Crow Canyon, and Norris Canyon Estates. If your building's HVAC system needs attention, we provide a clear scope of work and transparent pricing before any work begins.

San Ramon, CA questions
Know more before you decide.
What type of HVAC system works best for San Ramon homes?
Most San Ramon homes benefit most from a variable-speed heat pump system paired with a high-efficiency air handler. Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling in a single system, run quieter than traditional equipment, and can cut energy costs by 30 to 50 percent compared to a conventional gas furnace and AC combination. For homes with existing gas infrastructure where the homeowner prefers to stay with a furnace, a high-efficiency two-stage gas furnace paired with a matching AC condenser is still a strong option. We size every system using proper Manual J load calculations rather than matching the old equipment's tonnage, which is the most common mistake we see from other installers.
Do you provide commercial HVAC service for small offices in San Ramon?
Yes. We service and install HVAC systems for small to mid-size commercial properties throughout San Ramon, including medical offices, retail storefronts, and professional office suites. Our commercial services include rooftop unit repair, light commercial system replacement, and maintenance agreements that keep your equipment running efficiently year-round. Commercial customers receive priority scheduling under our maintenance plan, which is especially important for medical and client-facing businesses where climate control directly affects daily operations.
How often should I replace my HVAC filters in San Ramon?
For most San Ramon homes with standard 1-inch filters, every 60 to 90 days is the right interval. Homes with pets, residents with allergies, or systems running continuously during peak summer months should change filters every 30 to 45 days. Higher-end media filters and MERV 13 or 16 filters can often go longer, up to 6 months, but they should be inspected monthly because a clogged high-density filter restricts airflow and can damage the system. One of the things we check on every maintenance visit is filter condition and fit, because an improperly sized or clogged filter is one of the leading causes of preventable HVAC failures.
How much does HVAC replacement cost in San Ramon?
A complete HVAC system replacement in San Ramon typically ranges from $10,000 to $25,000 depending on system type, size, equipment tier, and whether ductwork modifications are needed. A standard single-zone split system install with a high-efficiency AC and furnace generally falls in the $12,000 to $18,000 range. Variable-speed heat pump systems with air handlers run $15,000 to $25,000 and often qualify for significant rebates through PG&E and the California Energy Commission that can reduce the net cost by $2,000 to $5,000 or more. We provide itemized written estimates before any project begins, and financing is available through Service Finance for qualified applicants.
Can you repair just the AC condenser without replacing the whole system?
In many cases, yes. If your air handler or furnace is less than 10 years old and in good condition, replacing only a failed condenser is often the most cost-effective path. However, there are important considerations: if your existing system uses R-22 refrigerant, new condensers are not compatible and a full system replacement is required. If the system is already 12 to 15 years old, replacing only one component often leads to a second failure within a year or two as the remaining components reach end of life. We evaluate both options honestly during every diagnostic visit and give you a clear picture of total cost over a realistic time horizon so you can make the best decision for your situation.
