HVAC Repair in Lompico, CA

Lompico is a small mountain community in Santa Cruz County, tucked into a wooded canyon above the San Lorenzo Valley near Felton and Zayante. It is about 17 miles from our south San Jose base as the crow flies. Homes here are often older cabins and houses that were expanded over time, set under tall trees on narrow roads where sunshine is limited for much of the year.

That shady, damp setting makes heating the main concern. ArcticPoint HVAC Repair helps Lompico homeowners with furnace repair, heat pump installs, ductless systems, and indoor air quality. Call to describe your home and the issue, and we will plan a visit with your road and access in mind.

Keeping a Canyon Home Warm

Under a dense tree canopy, homes can stay cool and damp even in summer. Winters bring long, chilly stretches. A heating system that runs reliably and evenly makes daily life much more comfortable.

Older Cabins and Wall Heaters

Many smaller homes started with a wall heater or wood stove. A ductless heat pump can add steady, controllable heat without major construction.

Furnaces Under the House

Where a furnace sits in a crawlspace, moisture and critters can cause trouble. We inspect ducts and connections along with the furnace itself.

Common Calls From Lompico

• Furnace or wall heater not lighting
• Damp, musty air inside the house
• Replacing an old heater with a ductless heat pump
• Duct repairs in crawlspaces
• Thermostats for mixed heat sources

Indoor Air in Wooded Areas

Woodstove smoke, wildfire smoke, and moisture all affect air quality in the mountains. Better filtration, sealed ducts, and properly vented equipment all help. A heat pump can also dehumidify a little while it runs, which helps damp rooms feel fresher.

What to Share Before Scheduling

Let us know how to reach the house, including road conditions, parking, and any steep steps. Tell us what heat source you have and where it is located. Photos of the unit and its label are helpful.

Lompico FAQ

Can a heat pump work under heavy tree shade?

Yes. Heat pumps draw heat from outdoor air, so shade does not prevent them from working.

What can I do about musty air?

Sealing ducts, fixing drainage, and running a heat pump in dry mode can help. We look for the source.

Do you work in narrow canyon roads?

Yes. Tell us about access so we can bring the right vehicle and equipment.

Can I keep my wood stove?

Yes. Many homeowners use a heat pump for daily heat and the stove on the coldest nights.

Is ductless heat enough for a whole cabin?

For many small homes, one or two indoor heads cover most rooms. We help plan placement.

How often should the furnace be checked?

Once a year before winter is a sensible schedule.
