Heater repair in Fair Oaks

Fair Oaks is an unincorporated community in Sacramento County, on the bluffs above the American River between Carmichael and Orangevale. Its housing ranges from mid-century ranch homes to custom houses on large, sloped lots, often under big oak trees.

Many Fair Oaks homes have grown over the years, with additions and converted garages that the original furnace was never sized to heat. That shows up as rooms that stay cold while the rest of the house is comfortable.

We repair gas furnaces and heat pumps of all makes, and when a room addition is the issue, we explain the options for getting heat to it.

Are there rebates on a new heat pump or furnace in Fair Oaks?

Fair Oaks is in SMUD territory. SMUD advertises rebates of up to $3,000 on a qualifying heat pump, plus instant rebates on smart thermostats. Peck is also an authorized contractor for TECH Clean California, the statewide heat pump program.

Program amounts change and funding can run out, so we confirm current amounts and your eligibility when we visit, then handle the paperwork. See current rebates and offers, or ask about financing.

Common questions

Why is one room in my Fair Oaks home always colder than the rest?

In older homes it is often a room that was added later, with a long duct run, a small duct or no return air. Sometimes it is a duct that has come loose. We check the airflow to that room and tell you whether it can be fixed with duct work or needs its own heating, such as a ductless heat pump.

What is the difference between a heat pump and a furnace?

A furnace creates heat by burning gas (or with electric heating elements) and is paired with a separate air conditioner for cooling. A heat pump does not burn fuel; it moves heat, pulling it from outdoor air into your home in winter and reversing in summer to cool. Heat pumps handle both heating and cooling in one system and work very efficiently in our mild Northern California winters.

How do I know when it’s time to replace my heating and air system?

It may be time to consider replacement if your system is 12 to 15 years or older, needs frequent repairs, or a single repair costs a large share of the price of a new system. Other signs include rising energy bills, rooms that will not stay comfortable, and older equipment that uses R-22 refrigerant. We are happy to come out, look at your system, and give you an honest recommendation on whether to repair or replace.
