Local rules

Ask about utility rebates before you replace equipment. PG&E and other local programs have offered incentives for efficient systems and heat pumps at various times. In California, licenses for heating and air conditioning contractors come from the Contractors State License Board.

Hayward runs its own water system, supplied by the SFPUC from Hetch Hetchy. The Hayward Fault creeps through downtown and visibly bends curbs near the old City Hall. Wastewater from homes here goes to the city's Water Pollution Control Facility, and permits run through the City of Hayward Building Division. Cal State East Bay sits in the Hayward hills.

The local picture in Hayward

Hayward Regional Shoreline runs along the Bay. The Hayward Shoreline Interpretive Center is on the marsh.

Hillside homes have views over the Bay. Many mid-century homes have ducts in a crawl space or attic that were never sealed, and leaks there waste a lot of heated or cooled air. BART has Hayward and South Hayward stations.

Many older homes near the Bay were built without central air, and ductless mini-splits are a popular way to add cooling. Many homes sit on slab foundations.

Before the visit

Check and replace the air filter before the visit, since a clogged one causes many problems on its own.

Note whether the problem is constant or comes and goes.

Any Hayward details worth mentioning when I call?

Should I repair or replace my system?

It depends on age, repair cost and how well it works. Ask for both options in writing, including efficiency and any rebates, and compare.

If the problem changes before the visit, mention it when the pro reaches out.
