How fast can you get out to Belmont?

We don't promise same-day. What helps Belmont is that we keep a technician based on the Peninsula in San Mateo County, so we're not routing a truck up from San Ramon for every call out here. That usually means quicker scheduling than a company working purely out of the East Bay.

Do you charge for the diagnostic if I don't end up fixing anything?

The diagnostic is $99. If you book the repair with us, that $99 is credited toward the repair. If you decide not to move forward, you've paid for the diagnosis and nothing more, and you get it in writing either way.

My split-level home has a furnace closet, not a full attic. Does that change the job?

It changes how I access the unit, not what I check. Closet installs actually make some repairs faster since I'm not crawling through insulation, but tight closets can restrict combustion air, so I check that clearance as part of the diagnostic.

Rheem in Belmont

Rheem in Belmont kitchens.

Belmont sits in the hills between San Carlos and San Mateo, split by Alameda de las Pulgas as it climbs east toward Water Dog Lake and the ridge. Down near El Camino the homes are mostly 1950s and 60s ranch and split-level construction, and up in the hills the lots get steeper and the driveways narrower, which changes how I plan a service call before I even open the truck.

The hills keep the fog and moderate temperatures longer than the inland valleys, so a lot of these homes never needed heavy cooling and are running a single-stage furnace well past its expected life, or a straight AC condenser bolted on later without much thought to the ductwork. Rheem heat pumps fit well here because one system covers both heating and cooling without a big tonnage jump, and I see more of them going into Belmont every year.

Split-level attics and crawlspaces in the hillside homes run tight, and I've pulled furnaces out of spaces I had to belly-crawl into. I diagnose the actual fault first before I ever suggest tearing into the ductwork, and I write the quote down before any work starts.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Rheem furnace flame sensor fouled in a tight attic space. The low-clearance attics common in Belmont's ranch and split-level homes run dustier than a full-height attic, and that dust coats the flame sensor until the furnace lights and then shuts itself back off within seconds. I pull the sensor, clean it to bare metal, and check the flame signal on the meter before I close it back up.
Rheem heat pump stuck in one mode. On the newer heat pump installs up in the hills, a stuck reversing valve leaves the system blowing cold air when it should be heating, or the other way around. I check the valve coil and the refrigerant pressures on both sides before I replace anything, since a bad valve and a low charge look similar on a gauge set.
Rheem EcoNet thermostat losing its zone schedule. A few of the split-level Rheem installs here run EcoNet thermostats tied into basic zoning, and a bad connection at the zone board drops the schedule and leaves one floor running off cycle from the other. I trace the wiring back to the board and confirm each zone calls correctly before I hand it back over.
