Who handles what in Honolulu
Natural gas in Honolulu comes from Hawaii Gas where lines exist. Electricity comes from Hawaiian Electric. If you ever smell gas, leave the building and call the gas utility from outside. In Hawaii, contractors doing HVAC work are licensed by the Contractors License Board, which you can check through the DCCA license search.
Know your Honolulu house
Honolulu's drinking water comes from groundwater aquifers on Oahu. Building permits are filed through the Department of Planning and Permitting's online system.
The Sand Island Wastewater Treatment Plant began operating in 1978 and is being upgraded to secondary treatment. Additions are often served by a separate unit or a long duct run, which is a common reason one room never feels right.
Trade winds cool many homes, but window units and ductless splits have become common as summers feel hotter. Valley neighborhoods like Manoa and Palolo get far more rain than the drier south shore.
Get ready for the call
Check and replace the air filter before the visit, since a clogged one causes many problems on its own.

Common questions
What is a heat pump?
It moves heat instead of making it, heating in winter and cooling in summer. Modern cold-climate models work well even in freezing weather.
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.
Do you cover Nuuanu and Nuuanu?
Most likely. We cover Nuuanu, Palolo, McCully and Waikiki and other parts of Honolulu, across 96813, 96814, 96815, 96816, 96817 and others. If no one is available, you will hear that from us up front.
Why does my system short cycle?
Turning on and off quickly can come from a dirty filter, a thermostat problem, low refrigerant or an oversized unit. It wastes energy and wears parts.
If you are not sure which trade fits your problem, call anyway and describe it. We will tell you if it sounds like a job for someone else.
