Our Pinole Valley house never had AC. Can a Lennox heat pump replace the old furnace?

Often, yes. A heat pump with a matching air handler heats and cools with one system. We check the ducts, the panel capacity and where the outdoor unit can sit, then give you a written quote. ADRIUM holds EPA 608 Universal certification for the refrigerant work.

What can we check ourselves before calling about a Lennox furnace that won't start?

Look at the thermostat setting and batteries, the service switch near the furnace, and the filter. Make sure the lower door panel is fully seated, because a loose door opens a safety switch. If it still will not run, write down any blinking light on the board before you call. That code saves diagnosis time.

Our Linda Heights furnace is in a tight hall closet. Is that a problem?

It can be. A closet install needs a clear path for combustion air and return air, and a solid door or a blocked grille chokes the furnace. We check the clearances, the vent and the air supply along with the furnace itself, and note anything unsafe in the quote.

Lennox in Pinole

Lennox heating and cooling in Pinole.

Much of Pinole was built in the postwar boom of the 1940s through the 1960s, after Interstate 80 turned it into a commuter town. Houses from that period were designed around a gas furnace and no air conditioning. When a Lennox condenser gets added later, the original ducts and the electrical panel have to keep up with it, and that is where a lot of the trouble starts.

The furnace side fails in familiar ways. A Lennox gas furnace in a hall closet, a garage or a crawlspace loses heat to a cracked hot-surface ignitor, a dirty flame sensor, or a pressure switch that will not close because the inducer port or condensate line is blocked. Those are ordinary parts, and we test them before anyone mentions a control board.

Pinole calls go to our technician based in Benicia. The diagnostic is $99 and it is credited toward the repair once you approve the written quote. That quote names the failed part, says whether it is a standard or a dealer-restricted Lennox part, and shows what the whole job costs.

Common repairs we handle.

AC added to a postwar house freezing its coil. When a Lennox condenser is paired with ducts sized only for heat, too little air crosses the indoor coil and it ices over. We measure static pressure and the temperature split, check the filter and the blower setting, and tell you if a duct change belongs in the answer.
Breaker trips when the compressor starts. A panel from the 1950s was not sized with central air in mind. A hard-starting compressor, a failing capacitor or a pitted contactor can pull enough current to trip the breaker. We check the start components and the wiring to the disconnect, and say so plainly if the panel itself needs an electrician.
Cracked ignitor at the start of the heating season. The hot-surface ignitor is brittle, and the first cold week is when a tired one gives up. We check it with a meter rather than by eye, fit the correct Lennox part, and test the flame sensor and the limit switch while the burner compartment is open.
