How long is the drive from San Ramon to Union City?

From San Ramon I run down 680 through Fremont, then over to Union City, usually 30 to 40 minutes. We cover Fremont, Hayward, and Newark on the same loop, so this corner of the South Bay is easy for us to schedule.

My furnace short-cycles and never finishes a heat cycle. What is that?

On Ruud units that is usually a flame sensor or a pressure-switch issue from a worn inducer. We confirm timing after the on-site diagnosis.

Is there a fee to come out?

The diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair. You get a written quote up front and a 1-year warranty on repairs.

Ruud in Union City

Ruud heating and cooling in Union City.

Union City is mostly 1960s through 1980s tract homes in the Decoto and Alvarado areas, with newer subdivisions filled in near the BART station and the Dumbarton approach. A lot of these homes run Rheem and Ruud forced-air systems in the garage or a hall closet, with standard sizing that makes parts easy to source.

Sitting near the bay, Union City gets a moderated climate, so the cooling load is lighter than Fremont's inland side, but the salt air works on outdoor condensers over time. On the furnace side these Ruud units are simple and quick to diagnose.

ADRIUM handles HVAC through our Bay Area HVAC Service division.

Common repairs we handle.

Hot-surface ignitor cracks. The silicon-nitride ignitor on the garage furnace gets brittle and cracks, so the burner will not light. I install the correct ignitor and run the full ignition sequence to confirm it fires.
Draft-inducer motor noise. The inducer bearings wear and the motor gets loud, then the furnace locks out on a pressure-switch error. I swap the inducer assembly from the truck and recheck the draft before I leave.
Condenser contactor wear. The bay-side air and normal cycling wear the Ruud outdoor unit's contactor so the AC chatters or will not pull in. I replace the contactor and check the run capacitor while I am in the disconnect.
