Heating & AC

Heating, cooling and air services for Pasadena homes and businesses

This page lists every heating and cooling service our technicians handle across Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley. The groups follow how problems show up at home: the AC stopped cooling, the heat will not come on, the ducts or attic are losing air, the indoor air feels stale or smoky, or the whole system needs a decision about replacement.

Each service page explains what usually fails, what the technician checks on the visit, typical price ranges for Pasadena, and how local heat, Santa Ana dust and older housing affect the work. If you are not sure which service fits, call (626) 879-0711 and describe what you are seeing. We will figure it out with you.

Typical prices for every job are collected in our HVAC price guide, and the AC size estimator gives a rough cooling size before a load calculation.

Questions

Choosing the right service

Start with AC repair. The technician tests the capacitor, contactor, refrigerant charge, coils, blower and drain, then tells you the actual cause. If the system turns out to be very old, leaking refrigerant every year or badly sized, the conversation moves to replacement, and you get both options priced side by side before deciding anything.

In Pasadena's mild winters a heat pump handles heating well and gives you cooling from the same equipment, which makes it a strong choice when the AC and furnace are both aging. A gas furnace can still make sense when only the heating side needs replacing and the AC is young. We compare running costs and rebates for your home before you choose.

Often, yes. Many Pasadena attics hold ducts that are decades old, undersized or leaking at the joints. California's Title 24 rules can require duct leakage testing when an AC or furnace is replaced, and failing ducts may need sealing or replacement to pass. The technician inspects the ducts before quoting so the full cost is clear upfront.
