What Altadena's climate means for your system
On a hot day in Altadena, your AC has to hold the house cool against 96°F outside. That's the number HVAC sizing uses here, and it's a lot hotter than the coast. Get the size right. Too small and it runs all afternoon without catching up. Too big and it cycles on and off and never pulls the humidity out.
Winter design here is 40°F. A modern heat pump handles that without trouble, which is why we push heat pumps for most Altadena homes.

Permits and rebates
Replacing a system needs a permit and a city inspection. In Altadena that's Los Angeles County Public Works (Building and Safety). The permit fee isn't in our installed prices; it's quoted separately.
Your electric company here is Southern California Edison (SCE). Utilities run heat pump and efficiency rebates on and off, so ask us what's available when you book and we'll check.

Are there heat pump rebates in Altadena?

Do I need a permit to replace my AC or furnace in Altadena?
Yes. In Altadena the permit comes from Los Angeles County Public Works (Building and Safety), and most replacements also need an independent field test. Permit fees are quoted separately from our installed prices.
