• UV germicidal lights to reduce microbial growth on coils and in ductwork
• Energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) and ventilators to bring in fresh air without excessive energy loss
• Zoning systems and advanced thermostats for precise room-by-room comfort and energy savings

Brands, efficiency and product options

We work with industry-leading, energy-efficient brands and certified products that perform reliably in coastal Bay Area conditions. As a Trane dealer and Energy Star-focused provider, recommended options include high-efficiency heat pumps and furnaces, smart thermostats, and whole-home filtration systems. Equipment selections prioritize:

• Long-term reliability in salt-air environments
• High seasonal efficiency ratings to lower operating costs
• Compatibility with indoor air quality upgrades and zoning controls

Technician qualifications and workmanship you can trust

Proper diagnosis, installation, and maintenance require trained technicians. Expect service personnel who are:

• Factory-trained on major brands (including Trane)
• Certified to handle refrigerants and safety systems (EPA 608)
• Licensed HVAC contractors with local permitting knowledge
• Experienced in Manual J load calculations and proper system sizing
• Trained in corrosion mitigation and coastal installation best practices

Technicians follow standardized checklists for inspections, use calibrated tools for performance verification, and document each visit to preserve warranty and service history.

Typical service and installation process

Understanding the steps helps you compare proposals and choose the best path forward.

1. Initial assessment: Inspect system, ductwork, controls, and indoor air issues. Identify root causes rather than band-aid fixes.
2. Load calculation & options: Perform Manual J sizing for homes or equivalent commercial calculations. Present equipment options, expected performance, and long-term operating considerations.
3. Written proposal: Detailed scope, equipment model choices, warranty coverage, and timeline.
4. Permitting and preparation: Obtain required permits, schedule deliveries, and prepare the site to minimize disruption.
5. Professional installation: Proper refrigerant charge, duct sealing, electrical, and control integration with commissioning and performance testing.
6. Post-installation verification: Demonstration of controls, efficiency measurement, and homeowner orientation.
7. Ongoing maintenance: Recommended seasonal tune-ups and service agreements to maintain efficiency and warranty compliance.

Common HVAC issues Burlingame customers face

Recognizing red flags lets you act before a small problem becomes costly.

• Reduced cooling output on warm, humid days
• Uneven temperatures due to inadequate zoning or duct leaks
• Increased energy bills after seasons change
• Persistent odors or elevated dust and allergies
• Short cycling, which stresses compressors in heat pumps and ACs
• Corrosion and accelerated wear on outdoor equipment from salt and coastal air

Benefits of timely upgrades and proactive maintenance

Making an informed, timely decision yields measurable benefits for Burlingame properties.

• Improved comfort and more consistent indoor temperatures
• Better indoor air quality for allergy and asthma management

Service agreements and extended warranties explained

Service agreements provide scheduled maintenance visits, priority response, and parts discounts that help avoid expensive failures. Extended warranties on new equipment extend factory coverage and often require documented maintenance — a service agreement keeps your system compliant and protected.

Practical maintenance tips for Burlingame homes

Simple homeowner actions complement professional services and preserve system performance.

• Replace or clean HVAC filters regularly, more often during high-pollen periods
• Keep outdoor units free of debris and rinsed periodically to reduce salt buildup
• Maintain clear airflow around outdoor equipment and vents

• Schedule seasonal tune-ups (spring for cooling, fall for heating)
