How long does it take you to reach Piedmont from San Ramon?

From San Ramon I take 24 through the Caldecott into Oakland and up into Piedmont, usually 30 to 45 minutes with tunnel traffic. We cover Oakland, Berkeley, and Orinda nearby, so Piedmont is on a regular route for us.

My home is large with several floors. Can one system handle it?

Often it needs zoning. On these bigger Piedmont homes I check whether the existing Ruud system can be properly zoned or whether a second system makes more sense, and I put it in a written quote.

Is there a fee for the first visit?

The diagnostic is $75, waived with the repair. You get a written quote before any work and a 1-year warranty on repairs.

Ruud in Piedmont

Ruud heating and cooling in Piedmont.

Piedmont is older, well-built homes, a lot of them from the 1910s through the 1930s, including some real estates on the upper streets. Many were built before central air, so they run older furnaces with retrofitted ducts, and the larger homes often need multi-zone Rheem and Ruud systems to heat several floors evenly.

Sitting up off the bay, Piedmont stays mild but the bigger homes have a lot of volume to condition. When I service a Ruud system here I look at zoning and airflow across the floors, not just whether the furnace lights.

ADRIUM handles HVAC through our Bay Area HVAC Service division. I carry the common Ruud parts so most Piedmont repairs do not turn into a wait for an inducer motor or a control board.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Multi-zone system faults. On the larger Piedmont homes the Ruud system is zoned and a damper or zone panel fails, so one floor goes cold. I test the panel, dampers, and thermostats and replace the failed part so every floor calls correctly.
Draft-inducer motor wear. The inducer bearings wear and the furnace locks out on a pressure-switch error. I carry the inducer assembly and swap it, then recheck the draft before I leave.
Aging furnace combustion checks. On the older retrofitted furnaces in these 1920s homes I inspect the heat exchanger and check CO. I give you a straight read on whether it is a safe repair or time to replace.
