Southern California is blessed with an abundance of warm weather throughout much of the year. In fact, it’s one of the main reasons why people choose to live and vacation here. Homeowners tend to rely on their air conditioners much more than their furnaces.

November 27th, 2023

Ductless mini splits are the perfect AC system for our SoCal climate. And when it comes to choosing a mini split manufacturer, our top choice is Mitsubishi. That’s because Mitsubishi is considered the leader in mini split system technology. 

Ductless mini splits are great for AC because they work best in mild climates like ours. They also provide both heating and cooling, eliminating the need for a separate heating system that quite honestly isn’t used as much as your AC.

Mitsubishi mini splits utilize heat pump technology but are different from ducted heat pumps in that they don’t rely on ductwork. That’s another reason why they’re so great for our area as many homes were built without ductwork.

What Are My Options for AC Installation?

October 16th, 2023

Is your SoCal home due for a new air conditioner? Perhaps it’s just not delivering the cooling power you need for our extended cooling season. Or perhaps it’s even worse–it’s broken down completely and the forecast calls for a heatwave.

No Orange County homeowner relishes the day when their AC system needs to be replaced. However, there is a silver lining to this cloud: there are a lot more options for air conditioners today than there were even a decade ago. There might be an option that’ll suit you much better than that old, outdated AC that’s wasting energy and driving up your utility bills.

When faced with the need for AC replacement, it’s easy to just purchase the cheapest, newest version of your previous system. But do a little more research and you may find that there’s a different type of system that’ll not only suit your needs better, but save you more money in the long run.

Is a Heat Pump Good for California Homes?

October 2nd, 2023

If you’re in the market for a new air conditioner and have done some preliminary research, you might be flabbergasted by all the new terminology and systems that are available. The last time you shopped for a new AC might’ve been a decade ago, and since then, heat pumps have become very popular. 

The name “heat pump” can be confusing to people searching for an air conditioner. A heat pump doesn’t pump heat into your home. What it does is it extracts heat from the air (both in your home and outside) and “pumps” it either inside or outside. Let’s explain so you’ll know why a heat pump is a relevant search result when Googling air conditioner installation for your California home.
