Green Construction Service - Chico's Local HVAC Services

In Chico, improperly sized HVAC systems are a frequent cause of discomfort and high energy bills. We start with a detailed Manual J load calculation, which is the industry standard for determining the precise heating and cooling needs of your specific home. This scientific approach considers your home's insulation, air leaks, window quality, and local climate data. By ensuring your new system is correctly sized, we eliminate issues like short cycling and uneven temperatures, providing reliable comfort and improved efficiency year-round.

Our solar installation is part of a whole-home efficiency approach. First, we often recommend and perform energy upgrades like air sealing and insulation to reduce your home's overall energy demand. Then, we design a solar electric system tailored to meet your remaining energy needs. Our team handles everything from site assessment and permit acquisition to installation and interconnection with your utility. We'll also guide you through available incentives, like the federal tax credit and local rebates, to make your transition to solar power straightforward and cost-effective.

Absolutely. As a full-service Home Performance Contractor, we specialize in integrating all aspects of your home's energy use. It often makes the most sense to improve your home's envelope—through air sealing and insulation—before sizing and installing a new, high-efficiency HVAC system. This integrated method ensures your new furnace or air conditioner doesn't have to work harder than necessary, leading to greater comfort, lower utility costs, and a longer lifespan for your equipment. We provide a single, coordinated project from assessment to completion.
