Rancho Cordova homes, up close
Tule fog is common on winter mornings. Anatolia and Sunridge are newer neighborhoods south of Douglas Road.
Most homes sit on slab foundations. Many post-war homes have forced-air furnaces with ducts in the basement or attic, often paired with central air added later. Many homes near Folsom Boulevard date from the 1950s and 1960s.
Inland heat waves push older AC units past their limits, and wildfire smoke days make better filtration a common request. Rancho Cordova incorporated in 2003.
Permits, licenses and your utility
In California, licenses for heating and air conditioning contractors come from the Contractors State License Board. Replacing a furnace, boiler or condenser usually needs a permit from the City of Rancho Cordova Building and Safety Division, and the contractor normally handles it.
The American River Parkway runs along the north edge. Summer highs often top 95 degrees. In short, water comes from Golden State Water or the Sacramento County Water Agency, depending on the area, sewer service from Regional San, and permits come from the City of Rancho Cordova Building and Safety Division. Electricity here comes from SMUD, the Sacramento Municipal Utility District, and gas from PG&E.

What people ask us
Why is my AC freezing up?
Low airflow from a dirty filter or blocked vents is a common cause, and low refrigerant is another. Turn the system off to let it thaw and call a tech if it happens again.
How often should I change my filter?
Check it monthly. Many standard filters need replacing every one to three months, more often with pets or during smoky or dusty stretches.
My thermostat is blank. Is the system broken?
Not always. Dead batteries, a tripped breaker or a blown fuse at the unit can blank the screen. Check those first.

How often should I change the filter?
Every one to three months for most homes, more often with pets or allergies. A clogged filter strains the system.
