Complete Heating and Cooling Services in Livermore
Livermore’s heat can expose AC problems fast. If your air conditioner is blowing warm air, running constantly, or failing to keep up in the afternoon, it’s time for a professional diagnosis. Many problems start small—then turn into expensive repairs when the system keeps running under heavy demand.
Common AC issues we repair:
AC blowing warm air or not cooling enough
Weak airflow from vents
Uneven cooling (hot rooms / cold rooms)
Frozen evaporator coil (ice buildup indoors)
Outdoor condenser not turning on or shutting off
Electrical issues (capacitors, contactors, relays, wiring)
Thermostat and sensor problems
Water leaks from clogged condensate drain lines
What’s an evaporator coil?
The evaporator coil is the indoor coil that absorbs heat from your home. If it’s dirty or frozen, cooling performance drops and water leaks can happen when ice melts.
What’s a capacitor?
A capacitor helps the compressor and fan motor start and run. When it fails, your system may buzz, click repeatedly, or struggle to turn on.
AC Installation and Replacement
In a hotter city like Livermore, correct sizing matters. An undersized system may run all day without reaching the set temperature. An oversized system may cool too fast and shut off before it removes enough humidity or balances temperatures.
Our AC installation process typically includes:
Proper sizing (for comfort + efficiency, not guesses)
Duct and airflow evaluation for central systems
Thermostat setup and calibration
Full testing to confirm performance and temperature delivery
What is short cycling?
Short cycling is when your AC turns on and off too frequently. It can be caused by oversizing, restricted airflow, thermostat placement issues, or failing parts. It reduces efficiency and wears out equipment faster.
Heating Services in Livermore
Even though Livermore is known for heat, winter nights can still feel cold. If your furnace won’t start, blows cool air, or cycles too often, we’ll diagnose the issue and restore safe, reliable heat.
Common furnace problems:
Furnace not turning on / no heat
Heater blowing cool air
Weak airflow and uneven heating
Loud noises (rattling, banging, squealing)
Burning smell that doesn’t fade quickly
Frequent cycling on/off
Thermostat and control board issues
Ignition and safety sensor problems
What’s a flame sensor?
A flame sensor verifies that 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 frequent and getting expensive
The unit is older and less efficient
Heating is uneven from room to room
You want quieter operation and better temperature control
We help you choose a properly sized heating system and install it for safe, dependable performance.
Heat Pumps and High-Efficiency HVAC Options in Livermore
Heat pumps are increasingly popular in the Tri-Valley because they provide both heating and cooling in one efficient system. Many homeowners choose heat pumps for improved efficiency and modern comfort control—especially when paired with good ductwork and airflow.
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 system with an outdoor unit connected to one or more indoor units. It’s ideal for home offices, additions, converted garages, and rooms that need separate temperature control—especially in hot climates.
Ductwork Services and Airflow Improvements in Livermore
In hot climates, ductwork problems become painfully obvious. If ducts leak, collapse, or are poorly balanced, your AC may run constantly while rooms still feel warm.
Duct services include:
Duct sealing to reduce air leaks
Repairing disconnected or damaged duct runs
Replacing collapsed or deteriorated flex duct
Improving airflow to hot rooms and second floors
Duct insulation recommendations (as needed)
Why duct sealing matters:
Leaky ducts can dump cooled air into the attic or crawlspace instead of delivering it into your living areas. Sealing improves comfort and reduces strain on your HVAC system.
What’s a return vent?
A return vent pulls indoor air back into the system so it can be cooled again. If returns are blocked or undersized, airflow suffers and cooling becomes uneven.
HVAC Maintenance and Tune-Ups in Livermore
In Livermore, preventive maintenance can save you from breakdowns during peak heat. A tune-up helps keep your system efficient and catches small issues before they become expensive failures.
A typical HVAC tune-up may include:
Electrical inspections 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:
This is the difference between the air temperature entering your system and the air temperature coming out of your vents. It helps confirm whether your system is cooling/heating effectively.
When it’s hot outside, homes stay closed up more. That can trap dust, allergens, and stale air indoors. Better filtration and airflow can make 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 improvements when appropriate
Filter tip:
Higher-rated filters can improve air quality, but if they restrict airflow too much, they can reduce HVAC performance. The best filter balances filtration and airflow for your system.
Call for HVAC service if you notice:
AC blowing warm air or not keeping up in the afternoon
Uneven temperatures between rooms
Weak airflow from vents
Frozen coil or water leaks around the indoor unit
Strange noises (buzzing, grinding, rattling, banging)
Furnace not heating or shutting off early
Frequent cycling or nonstop operation
Rising energy bills without explanation
Thermostat settings don’t match comfort
Honest diagnostics and clear recommendations
Repair vs. replace guidance without pressure
Focus on airflow, comfort, and efficiency
Clean, respectful work practices
