Frequently Asked Questions About HVAC Systems

What HVAC brands do you recommend?

We install and service premium brands including American Standard, Carrier, Lennox, and Mitsubishi. These manufacturers offer the best combination of reliability, efficiency, warranty coverage, and long-term performance.

What's the difference between a furnace and a heat pump?

A furnace generates heat by burning fuel (gas) or using electricity, while a heat pump transfers heat from outside air into your home. Heat pumps are more energy-efficient in mild climates like the Bay Area and can provide both heating and cooling.

Should I choose a ductless mini-split or central AC?

Ductless mini-splits are ideal for homes without existing ductwork, room additions, or zone control needs. Central AC works better for whole-home cooling when ductwork is already installed. We'll assess your home and recommend the best option.

How can I improve my indoor air quality?

We offer several solutions: high-efficiency air filters, whole-home air purifiers, UV lights to kill bacteria and mold, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, and advanced HEPA filtration systems. We'll recommend the best combination based on your specific air quality concerns.

Are smart thermostats worth the investment?

Yes! Smart thermostats typically pay for themselves within 1-2 years through energy savings. They learn your schedule, optimize heating and cooling, and let you control your system remotely. Many utility companies also offer rebates for smart thermostat installation.

How long do HVAC systems typically last?

With proper maintenance, furnaces last 15-20 years, air conditioners 12-15 years, and heat pumps 10-15 years. Regular professional maintenance is key to maximizing your system's lifespan and efficiency.
