Our Glen Cove house still has its original 1990s Rheem condenser. Is it worth repairing?

That depends on what failed and which refrigerant it uses. A fan motor, capacitor or contactor is a fair repair on an older unit. A leaking coil on an R-22 system usually is not, because R-22 is no longer produced and new condensers use a different refrigerant. ADRIUM holds EPA 608 Universal certification, and you get both options in writing.

Does a Rheem heat pump make sense in Vallejo's climate?

Yes, it is close to ideal. Mild winters and bay-cooled summers keep a heat pump inside its comfortable range, and it seldom needs backup heat. What matters is sizing: a load calculation for your house rather than a guess from square footage, and a charge weighed in to the nameplate.

Do you take Rheem calls on Mare Island and in South Vallejo?

Yes. We cover all of Vallejo, from South Vallejo and the Mare Island redevelopment to Hiddenbrooke off Interstate 80. Read us the model number from the unit's nameplate when you book, so the likely parts can come along on the first visit.

Rheem in Vallejo

Rheem heating and cooling in Vallejo.

Vallejo sits on San Pablo Bay, and the bay does much of the cooling. Summer afternoons can run about ten degrees cooler than the inland cities. For a Rheem heat pump or AC condenser that is easy duty, so when one struggles here, look at the install before the equipment. A unit sized too big for the house, or a charge that was never weighed in, short-cycles in mild weather and wears out its contactor and capacitor early.

The housing spans a century. A downtown Victorian was built long before forced air, so any ducted Rheem system in one was added later, with ducts fitted through a basement or crawlspace. Glen Cove, along the Carquinez Strait, is mostly detached homes, many from the 1980s and 1990s. Our technician for Vallejo works out of Benicia, one town east. The $99 diagnostic is credited toward the repair, and a written quote comes before any work.

Common repairs we handle.

Heat pump short-cycling in mild weather. A Rheem heat pump that starts, runs briefly and stops again is often oversized or off on charge. We check superheat and subcooling against the Rheem charging chart, look at where the thermostat sits, and tell you plainly if the unit is simply too big for the house.
Condenser fan motor quitting on a mid-tier unit. Some of Rheem's mid-tier condenser fan motors are not built like a premium line. When the fan stops, the compressor overheats and trips on its internal overload. We test the motor and its run capacitor, replace what failed, and check the contactor, which wears alongside the fan on a unit that cycles a lot.
Weak airflow from ducts added to an older house. When a Victorian or Craftsman got ducts after the fact, the return is often too small for the Rheem air handler or furnace. Low airflow freezes the coil in cooling and trips the high limit in heating. We measure static pressure and show you where the restriction is before quoting any fix.
