Local conditions

Orangevale Heat and Homes

Orangevale sits northeast of my base, in Sacramento County, near Folsom and Fair Oaks. I'm in the area regularly, so getting to you isn't a stretch.

Summers here regularly push into the high 90s and past 100. Orangevale began as the Orange Vale Colony, and olive trees from its old orchards still line Chestnut, Orangevale, Main and Walnut Avenues.

Big temperature swings are when systems give out, like a jump from the 70s into the 90s. If your AC runs but can't keep up, won't shut off, or your electric bill suddenly climbs, call before it fails completely.

Signs It's Time to Call

The AC runs constantly but the house stays warm
Your bill climbed and nothing else changed
You see water near a window, high up, not at the low drain
The system just won't cycle off

Smell gas? Leave the house and call 911 or your gas utility from outside first.

Questions

AC & Heating Questions from Orangevale

Do you service Orangevale, CA?

Yes. Orangevale is about 11 miles from my base in Sacramento and part of my regular service area. I cover roughly 50 miles around Sacramento.

When do most breakdowns happen?

On big temperature swings, like a jump from the 70s into the 90s, and sometimes in high humidity or rain, which can cause fan motor problems.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

No, I don't do maintenance contracts or service agreements. I do recommend having your system serviced once or twice a year.

Why is my AC running but not cooling?

There are several possible causes, from a dirty filter or dirty condenser coils to a refrigerant or fan problem. It takes an inspection to know for sure. Start by checking the filter, then call me.

Should I repair or replace my AC or furnace?

My rule of thumb is about one-third: if the repair is under roughly a third of the cost of a new system and the equipment is in decent shape, repairing usually makes sense. Above that, I'll generally recommend replacing. The decision is yours.
