Complete Heating and Cooling Services in Saratoga
If your air conditioner is struggling, you may notice warm air from vents, uneven temperatures between rooms, weak airflow, or a system that runs constantly without reaching the thermostat setting. We diagnose the cause, explain your options clearly, and perform repairs that restore performance—not temporary patches.
Common AC problems we repair:
AC blowing warm air or not cooling enough
Weak airflow and uneven cooling
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 drain lines
What’s a capacitor?
A capacitor helps your AC motors start and run (like the compressor and fan motor). When it fails, the system may click, buzz, struggle to start, or shut off unexpectedly.
AC Installation and Replacement
If your system is older, inefficient, or needing frequent repairs, replacement can improve comfort, reduce noise, and lower energy waste. In Saratoga homes, proper sizing and airflow planning are especially important to avoid hot spots and short cycling.
Our AC installation process typically includes:
Correct system sizing for your home and layout
Ductwork and airflow evaluation (for central systems)
Thermostat setup and calibration
Full testing to confirm performance
What is short cycling?
Short cycling is when the AC turns on and off too frequently. It can be caused by oversizing, airflow restrictions, thermostat placement issues, or failing parts. It increases wear and reduces efficiency.
Heating Services in Saratoga
Saratoga winter evenings and mornings can still feel cold, and a furnace that isn’t working properly can make the whole home uncomfortable. If your furnace won’t start, heats unevenly, or keeps shutting off, we can diagnose and fix the issue safely.
Common furnace issues:
Furnace won’t turn on / no heat
Heater blowing cool air
Loud noises (rattling, banging, squealing)
Burning smell that doesn’t fade quickly
Frequent cycling on/off
Thermostat and control board problems
Ignition or 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 be the right choice if:
Repairs are frequent or expensive
The unit is older and less efficient
Heating is uneven between rooms
You want quieter operation and improved comfort control
We help you compare options and choose the right fit—without oversizing or pushing unnecessary upgrades.
Heat Pumps and High-Efficiency HVAC Options
Heat pumps are increasingly popular in Saratoga because they provide heating and cooling in one efficient system—often a great match for the Bay Area climate. Many homeowners also choose heat pumps for modern comfort control and electrification goals.
We offer:
Heat pump installation and replacement
Heat pump repair and maintenance
Ducted heat pump systems (central style)
Ductless mini-split systems for zoned comfort
What’s a ductless mini-split?
A mini-split is a ductless system that uses an outdoor unit connected to one or more indoor units. It’s ideal for home offices, additions, guest suites, and rooms that need separate temperature control.
Ductwork and Airflow Improvements in Saratoga
In larger homes or multi-level layouts, airflow issues can be a major reason for uneven comfort. Even a high-quality HVAC unit can’t perform well if ducts are leaking, disconnected, or improperly balanced.
Duct services include:
Duct sealing to reduce air leakage
Repairing disconnected or damaged duct runs
Replacing deteriorated or collapsed flex duct
Airflow improvements for stubborn hot/cold rooms
Duct insulation recommendations (as needed)
Why duct sealing matters:
Leaky ducts can send conditioned air into attic or crawlspace areas instead of into your living spaces. Sealing ducts helps improve comfort and reduces strain on the HVAC system.
HVAC Maintenance and Tune-Ups in Saratoga
Routine maintenance helps prevent breakdowns, improves efficiency, and extends equipment life. It’s especially helpful before peak summer cooling and winter heating seasons.
A typical HVAC tune-up may include:
Electrical checks and tightening connections
Testing capacitors, contactors, and safety controls
Outdoor coil inspection and cleaning (as appropriate)
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 of your vents. It helps confirm whether your HVAC system is performing properly.
Indoor air quality can be affected by dust, pollen, pets, and seasonal air issues. Better filtration and airflow can help your home feel cleaner and more comfortable—especially for households with allergies.
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 for your needs
Filter tip:
A high-rated filter can improve air quality, but if it restricts airflow too much it can reduce performance. Choosing the right filter is about balancing airflow and filtration.
