Know your Walnut Creek house

Many homes have central air that works hard from June through September. The Lesher Center for the Arts is downtown.

Most homes were built from the 1950s through the 1970s. Many post-war homes have forced-air furnaces with ducts in the basement or attic, often paired with central air added later. Rossmoor is a large active-adult community in the Tice Valley.

Many older homes near the Bay were built without central air, and ductless mini-splits are a popular way to add cooling. The Iron Horse Regional Trail follows an old rail line through the city.

Who handles what in Walnut Creek

In California, licenses for heating and air conditioning contractors come from the Contractors State License Board. If your system uses gas, PG&E handles service to the meter. If you smell gas, leave the house and call them from outside.

Permit questions go to the City of Walnut Creek Building Division. EBMUD serves most of Walnut Creek, and parts of the north side get water from the Contra Costa Water District. Broadway Plaza is the main downtown shopping center. Mount Diablo State Park is just east of the city.

Before the visit

Clear a path to the equipment and the outdoor unit so the tech can get to work right away.

Note whether the problem is constant or comes and goes.

Quick answers

Do I need a carbon monoxide detector?

If you have gas, oil or wood burning appliances or an attached garage, yes. Put one near sleeping areas and test it regularly.

Why is one room always hotter or colder?

Closed or blocked vents, leaky ducts, poor insulation or a system sized wrong for the house are common reasons. A tech can measure airflow room by room.

What should a heating and cooling company know about homes in Walnut Creek?

BART stops at the Walnut Creek station near downtown. Shell Ridge and Lime Ridge open spaces border the city. Summer afternoons are much hotter than near the Bay. Mention your street and the age of the house when you call.

Which parts of Walnut Creek can you help with?

Does HVAC service in Walnut Creek need a permit?

Some jobs do and many small repairs don't. In Walnut Creek, permits are handled by the City of Walnut Creek Building Division, and the heating and cooling company can tell you if your job needs one.
