Complete Heating and Cooling Services in Pleasanton
When the Tri-Valley heat hits, AC issues show up fast. If your system is blowing warm air, running nonstop, or struggling to cool certain rooms, we’ll diagnose the cause and repair it correctly—so your system cools efficiently without extra strain.
Common AC problems 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 occur when ice melts.
What’s a capacitor?
A capacitor helps the compressor and fan motor start and run. When it fails, you may hear buzzing or clicking, and the system may struggle to start.
AC Installation and Replacement
In Pleasanton, correct AC sizing is critical. An undersized unit may run all day and never reach the set temperature. An oversized unit may cool too quickly and shut off before it spreads comfort evenly or properly manages humidity.
Our AC installation process typically includes:
Proper sizing based on your home and layout
Ductwork and airflow evaluation (for central systems)
Thermostat setup and calibration
Full system testing after installation
What is short cycling?
Short cycling is when the AC turns on and off too frequently. It’s often caused by oversizing, airflow restrictions, thermostat issues, or failing parts. It reduces efficiency and increases wear.
Heating Services in Pleasanton
Even in a warm region, Pleasanton winter mornings and nights can feel cold. If your furnace won’t start, blows cool air, or shuts off early, we’ll diagnose the issue and restore safe, dependable 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 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 costly
The unit is older and less efficient
Heating is uneven between rooms
You want quieter operation and better temperature control
We help you choose the right system size and install it for safe, reliable performance.
Heat Pumps and Energy-Efficient HVAC Options in Pleasanton
Heat pumps are increasingly popular in Pleasanton and the Tri-Valley because they provide both heating and cooling in one efficient system. Many homeowners choose heat pumps for modern comfort control, strong efficiency, and all-electric goals.
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 additions, home offices, converted garages, and rooms that need separate temperature control—especially in homes with uneven comfort.
Ductwork Services and Airflow Improvements in Pleasanton
In hot climates, ductwork problems become obvious quickly. Leaky ducts, collapsed flex duct, or poor airflow balance can cause warm rooms and high energy bills because cooled air never makes it where it’s supposed to go.
Duct services include:
Duct sealing to reduce air leaks
Repairing disconnected or damaged duct runs
Replacing collapsed or deteriorated flex duct
Improving airflow to upstairs and hot rooms
Duct insulation recommendations (as needed)
Why duct sealing matters:
Leaky ducts can dump cooled or heated air into the attic or crawlspace instead of delivering it into your living areas. Sealing improves comfort and reduces HVAC strain.
What’s a return vent?
A return vent pulls indoor air back into the HVAC system to be cooled or heated again. If returns are blocked or undersized, airflow suffers and comfort becomes uneven.
HVAC Maintenance and Tune-Ups in Pleasanton
Preventive maintenance helps reduce breakdowns, improve efficiency, and extend equipment life. In Pleasanton, tune-ups are especially important before peak summer heat.
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:
It’s the difference between the air temperature entering your system and the air temperature coming out through your vents. It helps confirm whether your system is cooling/heating effectively.
When it’s hot outside, homes stay closed up more—trapping dust, allergens, and stale air indoors. Better filtration and 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 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.
