Heating & Air Conditioning Services | Walnut Creek, CA

Walnut Creek homeowners and businesses trust Art of Comfort for every HVAC need; from emergency AC repair on triple-digit summer days to furnace tune-ups before the first cold snap. We're locally owned, Diamond Certified, and have served the Contra Costa County area since 2012. Every technician is NATE-certified. Every quote is written and upfront before any work begins.

AC Repair & Air Conditioning Installation

Whether your AC stopped cooling, is short-cycling, or you're ready to replace an aging system, our NATE-certified technicians diagnose and repair all makes and models. We provide free estimates on new AC installations and free second opinions on any replacement recommendation, so you always have the full picture before making a decision.

Furnace Repair, Maintenance & Replacement

From emergency furnace repair in the middle of a cold Walnut Creek winter to annual tune-ups that keep your system running efficiently, our team handles it all. We service all furnace brands and fuel types. If your furnace is over 15 years old, we'll give you an honest assessment of repair vs. replace with no pressure either way.

Heat Pump Installation & Service

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating and cooling solution for Walnut Creek's climate — providing both functions in a single system with significantly lower operating costs than traditional HVAC. We install, service, and repair all major heat pump brands, including cold-climate models and ductless mini-splits. Ask about available rebates through PG&E and the Inflation Reduction Act.

Duct Sealing, Replacement & HVAC Maintenance

Leaky ducts waste up to 20–30% of conditioned air before it reaches your rooms, a major driver of high energy bills and uneven temperatures in Walnut Creek homes. Our duct inspection, sealing, and replacement services restore efficiency and comfort. Pair with our $199/year Membership Maintenance Program for biannual tune-ups, priority scheduling, and complimentary filter replacements year-round.

Walnut Creek, CA questions

Know more before you decide.

How often should I have my HVAC system serviced in Walnut Creek?

Twice per year is recommended, once before cooling season (spring) and once before heating season (fall). Walnut Creek's hot summers put significant demand on AC systems, and biannual maintenance catches small issues before they become emergency repairs. Most manufacturer warranties also require documented annual maintenance to remain valid.

What are the signs my HVAC system needs repair?

Common signs include unusual noises (grinding, banging, or rattling), reduced airflow from vents, uneven heating or cooling between rooms, system short-cycling (turning on and off frequently), unusually high energy bills, and the system failing to reach the set temperature. If you notice any of these, schedule a diagnostic — catching issues early is almost always less expensive than emergency repairs.

How much does a new HVAC system cost in Walnut Creek?

New HVAC system installation in the Walnut Creek area typically ranges from $8,000–$14,000 depending on system type, home size, ductwork condition, and equipment brand. Heat pump systems may qualify for significant rebates through PG&E and federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act, which can meaningfully reduce the net cost. Art of Comfort provides free in-home estimates with written, itemized quotes before any work begins.

Does Art of Comfort service commercial HVAC in Walnut Creek?

Yes. We service commercial HVAC systes for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and light industrial facilities throughout Walnut Creek and Contra Costa County. Commercial services include installation, repair, maintenance contracts, and emergency service. Contact us to discuss your commercial HVAC needs.

What heat pump rebates are available in Walnut Creek?

Walnut Creek homeowners may qualify for PG&E rebates on qualifying heat pump installations, plus federal tax credits of up to 30% of installation costs (up to $2,000) under the Inflation Reduction Act. Eligibility depends on equipment efficiency ratings and household income. Art of Comfort can help identify which rebates apply to your project during your free estimate.
