HVAC Repair & Installation in Citrus Heights, CA

Q: My Citrus Heights home still uses R-22 refrigerant. What are my options?

R-22 was phased out in 2020 and is now extremely expensive. You can convert to a drop-in replacement refrigerant or upgrade to a new system using R-410A or R-454B. We'll evaluate your system and help you decide.

Q: Why does my AC run constantly but the house stays warm?

Common causes include low refrigerant, a failing compressor, dirty evaporator coils, or ductwork leaks in the attic. With attic temperatures exceeding 140°F in summer, even small duct gaps cause massive cooling loss.

Citrus Heights residents in Sunrise, Rusch Park, Sayonara, Sylvan Corners, and Stock Ranch know how punishing Sacramento-area summers can be on home cooling systems. Many of the 1970s and 1980s-era homes throughout Citrus Heights are running aging HVAC equipment that struggles with today's extreme heat. Our technicians specialize in diagnosing and repairing these older systems, and when replacement makes sense, we help you choose high-efficiency units that lower your SMUD bills and keep your home comfortable through every season.

Filter Replacements

Citrus Heights' proximity to open grasslands means high dust and allergen counts, especially in spring and fall. We supply and install quality filters rated MERV 8-13 to protect your equipment and your lungs.

Ductwork

In older Citrus Heights homes, ductwork running through unconditioned attic space loses significant cooling in summer. We seal joints, add insulation, and repair crushed flex ducts to restore proper airflow to every room.

Why Citrus Heights Homeowners Trust Us

Citrus Heights is a city of established neighborhoods built primarily during the 1970s and 1980s suburban expansion. This means most homes are 40-50 years old, and many still have original or second-generation HVAC equipment that was never designed for today's increasingly hot Sacramento Valley summers.

We understand the specific challenges Citrus Heights homeowners face: aging R-22 systems that need conversion, undersized ductwork in sprawling single-story floor plans, and attic-mounted air handlers baking in 140°F attic temperatures. Owner Michael Velasco and our team diagnose these issues honestly and present repair vs. replacement options with transparent pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions, HVAC in Citrus Heights

My Citrus Heights home still uses R-22 refrigerant. What are my options?

R-22 (Freon) was phased out in 2020 and is now extremely expensive when available. If your system uses R-22, you have two options: convert to a drop-in replacement refrigerant (R-407C), or upgrade to a new system that uses R-410A or R-454B. We'll evaluate your system's condition and help you decide which option makes financial sense.

Why does my AC run constantly but the house stays warm?

Common causes in Citrus Heights homes include low refrigerant from a leak, a failing compressor, dirty evaporator coils, or ductwork leaks in the attic. With attic temperatures exceeding 140°F in summer, even small duct gaps cause massive cooling loss. We diagnose the root cause before recommending any repairs.

What SEER rating should I look for when replacing my AC in Citrus Heights?

For Citrus Heights' climate, we recommend a minimum 16 SEER2 rating. Higher SEER systems (18-20+) cost more upfront but pay for themselves within 5-7 years through lower SMUD bills, especially given how many months your AC runs. New federal minimums as of 2023 require 15 SEER2 in our region.
