Electric Air - Redwood City's Professional HVAC Services
2694 Middlefield Rd Ste H, Redwood City, CA 94063
Business Background
I'm Jeremy, a co-founder of Electric Air. My passion for thermal and refrigerant systems started with my undergrad thesis on heat pumps and grew through years of designing and building them. In 2022, I teamed up with co-founder Chris Mui, and we built a heat pump for fun. That project led to a discovery: Bay Area homeowners were paying much more for these systems than they should. We founded Electric Air to tackle that. We're an HVAC contractor and a technology startup focused on making heat pump installation more accessible and affordable for Redwood City residents. Our goal is to reduce the reliance on gas furnaces by streamlining the installation process, maximizing available incentives, and integrating smart home technology. It's rewarding to help local families decommission old, inefficient gas systems and transition to clean, electric home comfort.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a typical HVAC installation or replacement look like for a Redwood City home?
For Redwood City homeowners, our process starts with a detailed assessment of your home's layout and existing system. We specialize in heat pump installations, which can efficiently provide both heating and cooling. We handle everything from removing your old furnace or AC unit to installing the new system, ensuring it's optimized for our local climate. A key part of our service is navigating the complex web of available rebates and tax credits—like those from BayREN and the federal government—to significantly lower your final cost. Our goal is a seamless upgrade that improves your home's comfort and efficiency.
How do you handle common local HVAC issues like thermostat connectivity or clogged drain lines?
These are frequent issues we see in Redwood City homes. For thermostat connectivity problems, which often stem from Wi-Fi interference or outdated equipment, we diagnose the root cause and can install or repair modern, reliable thermostats that integrate with your home's system. For clogged condensate drain lines—a common problem in our humid coastal climate—we perform a thorough cleaning to prevent water damage and system shutdowns. Our repair approach focuses on fixing the immediate problem and advising on preventative maintenance to keep your system running smoothly year-round.
Why are heat pumps a good option for replacing my old gas furnace in the Bay Area?
Heat pumps are an excellent match for our Bay Area climate. They provide highly efficient heating in the winter and effective cooling during our warmer spells, all from a single, electric system. This eliminates the need to burn natural gas, reducing your home's carbon footprint. While traditional installation costs can be high, our technology-enabled process focuses on reducing labor and complexity to make heat pumps a more affordable choice. We help you access significant local and state incentives, making the switch from a gas furnace to a clean, all-electric heat pump system both practical and cost-effective.
