Complete Heating and Cooling Services in Burlingame
Even in a milder coastal area, AC problems become urgent when temperatures rise. If your air conditioner is blowing warm air, cooling unevenly, leaking water, or not turning on at all, we can diagnose the issue and restore proper performance.
Common AC issues we repair:
AC blowing warm air or not cooling enough
Weak airflow from vents
Uneven cooling between rooms
Frozen evaporator coil (ice buildup on indoor unit)
Outdoor condenser not turning on or shutting off
Electrical issues (capacitors, contactors, relays, wiring)
Thermostat and sensor problems
Water leaks from clogged condensate drains
What’s a capacitor?
A capacitor helps your AC motors start and run (such as the compressor and fan motor). When it fails, you may hear clicking, buzzing, or the outdoor unit may struggle to start.
AC Installation and Replacement
If your AC is older, inefficient, or frequently needing repairs, replacement can improve comfort and reduce long-term operating costs. Newer systems often provide quieter operation and more stable indoor temperatures.
Our installation process typically includes:
Proper sizing (to avoid comfort problems and short cycling)
Duct and airflow evaluation (for central systems)
Thermostat setup and calibration
Full system testing after installation
What is short cycling?
Short cycling occurs when the system turns on and off too frequently. This can be caused by improper sizing, restricted airflow, thermostat issues, or failing components. It reduces efficiency and increases wear.
Heating Services in Burlingame
Cool mornings and evenings in Burlingame can make heating reliability a priority. If your furnace won’t start, keeps shutting off, or heats unevenly, we’ll diagnose the issue and restore safe, dependable heat.
Common furnace issues:
Furnace not turning on / no heat
Heater blowing cool air
Weak airflow and cold spots
Loud noises (rattling, banging, squealing)
Burning smell that doesn’t fade quickly
Frequent cycling on/off
Thermostat and control board problems
Ignition and safety sensor issues
What’s a flame sensor?
A flame sensor confirms the burner flame is present. If it’s dirty or failing, the furnace may ignite briefly and then shut down as a safety response.
Furnace Installation and Replacement
A furnace replacement may make sense if:
Repairs are becoming frequent and costly
Your furnace is older and less efficient
Heating is uneven from room to room
You want quieter performance and better comfort control
We help you choose the right system size and install it for reliable, safe operation.
Heat Pumps and Energy-Efficient HVAC Options
Heat pumps are increasingly popular in Burlingame and across the Peninsula because they provide both heating and cooling in one efficient system—often an excellent fit for a mild coastal climate.
We provide:
Heat pump installation and replacement
Heat pump repair and maintenance
Ducted heat pump systems (central HVAC style)
Ductless mini-split systems for zoned comfort
What’s a ductless mini-split?
A mini-split is a ductless heating and cooling system with an outdoor unit connected to one or more indoor units. It’s ideal for additions, home offices, upstairs rooms, or areas that need separate temperature control.
Ductwork Services and Airflow Improvements in Burlingame
Many comfort complaints come down to airflow. If ductwork leaks, is damaged, or isn’t balanced properly, your HVAC system may run longer while rooms still feel uneven.
Duct services include:
Duct sealing to reduce air leakage
Repairing disconnected or damaged duct runs
Replacing collapsed or deteriorated flex duct
Improving airflow to problem rooms
Duct insulation recommendations (as needed)
Why duct sealing matters:
Leaky ducts can dump heated or cooled air into attic or crawlspace areas instead of delivering it to your living space. Sealing improves comfort and reduces strain on your HVAC system.
HVAC Maintenance and Tune-Ups in Burlingame
Routine maintenance helps reduce breakdowns, improves efficiency, and extends equipment life—especially before summer warm spells and winter heating season.
A typical HVAC tune-up may include:
Electrical inspection and tightening connections
Testing capacitors, contactors, and safety controls
Outdoor coil inspection/cleaning (as needed)
Blower motor inspection and airflow checks
Drain line inspection and clearing to prevent leaks
Temperature split measurement (performance check)
Thermostat testing and cycle evaluation
Temperature split explained simply:
It’s the difference between the air temperature entering your system and the air temperature leaving through the vents. It helps confirm whether the system is heating/cooling properly.
Indoor air quality can be affected by dust, pollen, pets, and seasonal air conditions. Proper filtration and healthy airflow can help your home feel cleaner and more comfortable.
We can help with:
Filter recommendations matched to your HVAC system
Airflow balancing to reduce stuffy rooms
Maintenance plans that keep internal components cleaner
Optional IAQ upgrades when appropriate
Filter tip:
Higher-rated filters can improve air quality, but if they restrict airflow too much, it can reduce performance. The right filter balances filtration and airflow.
