HVAC Repair in Boulder Creek, CA

Boulder Creek is the northernmost town in the San Lorenzo Valley, an unincorporated community in the Santa Cruz Mountains of Santa Cruz County. It is about 20 miles from our south San Jose base in a straight line. Homes here range from small houses near the town center to larger properties on wooded acreage up winding mountain roads.

Winters in Boulder Creek are colder and wetter than on the coast, so heating systems carry a heavy load. ArcticPoint HVAC Repair helps homeowners with furnace repair, heat pump installation, dual-fuel systems, and indoor air quality. Give us a call to describe your property and what you need.

Heating Mountain Homes in Boulder Creek

Larger homes on wooded lots often have propane furnaces, sometimes paired with a wood stove. As that equipment ages and propane deliveries keep coming, many owners start looking at heat pumps.

Dual-Fuel Systems

A dual-fuel setup pairs a heat pump with a propane or gas furnace. The heat pump handles most days, and the furnace takes over on the coldest nights.

Insulation and Air Sealing

Older mountain homes can lose a lot of heat through gaps and thin insulation. We point out areas worth improving so any new system can do its job.
