As a fully licensed HVAC contractor, we meet all local codes and historic preservation standards.

Our team provides expert guidance, custom solutions, and meticulous installations. We're available 24/7 for emergencies. Regular maintenance ensures peak performance in SF's demanding climate.

Why Trust Galaxy for San Francisco HVAC Service?

San Francisco's iconic Victorian and Edwardian homes, along with its unique microclimates, create specialized HVAC needs. Most older SF homes lack central ductwork, making ductless heat pumps the ideal solution-delivering efficient heating and optional cooling without costly renovations or compromising architectural character. Many SF homeowners are upgrading from outdated wall heaters and baseboard systems to modern, efficient heat pumps.

We serve San Francisco's diverse commercial sector, including restaurants and retail throughout the city, tech offices in SOMA and Mission Bay, historic buildings downtown, medical facilities, and residential buildings. Our commercial team handles rooftop units, multi-zone ductless systems, and specialized applications with 24/7 emergency support.

San Francisco's microclimates are legendary: western neighborhoods (Sunset, Richmond) stay cool and foggy year-round (often 55-65°F), while eastern and southern neighborhoods (Mission, Potrero Hill, Noe Valley) enjoy significantly warmer, sunnier weather (often 10-20°F warmer). We recommend ductless heat pumps that provide efficient heating for cool SF mornings while offering optional cooling for those occasional warm days. SF's environmentally-conscious residents especially appreciate heat pumps' all-electric operation and zero fossil fuel emissions.

The homeowners appreciate the whisper-quiet operation, modern comfort, and 38% reduction in energy costs.
