Most Common System Found In Southern California Homes

Gas/Electric Equipment

Heating: When it's time to heat your home, the gas furnace activates. It burns natural gas to generate warmth, and a fan then circulates the heated air throughout your home via the vents. Gas heating is typically quicker and more efficient for keeping your home warm during the colder months.

Cooling: When the temperature rises, the electric system (usually a heat pump or air conditioner) takes over. It uses electricity to cool your home by extracting heat from the indoor air and releasing it outside. The system works much like a refrigerator, using refrigerant to absorb and expel heat, but on a larger scale.

A straight cooling condenser releases heat from the refrigerant, which is brought in from the indoor unit. The refrigerant is cooled and turned back into a liquid, then sent back indoors to continue the cooling process, keeping your home cool. In sho

A straight cooling condenser releases heat from the refrigerant, which is brought in from the indoor unit. The refrigerant is cooled and turned back into a liquid, then sent back indoors to continue the cooling process, keeping your home cool. In short, it helps expel the heat absorbed from inside, allowing the air conditioner to continuously cool your home. This condenser is a standard efficiency model rating up to 17 SEER2.

A gas furnace heats your home by burning natural gas to create heat. The burner ignites the gas, heating a metal exchanger, while a blower fan circulates warm air through ducts. The furnace turns off once the desired temperature is reached, providing efficient warmth throughout your home. This furnace is a 80% AFUE, non-variable speed model.

The evaporator coil is key to an air conditioner's function, drawing heat from indoor air to cool your home. Connected to the furnace, it holds the cooled refrigerant from the compressor. As the blower fan circulates air over the coil, the refrigerant absorbs heat, cooling the air. The heated refrigerant is then sent to the outdoor condenser.

Energy Efficient Options

The condensing units can adjust the compressor motor speed to quickly maintain a precise temperature, operating at a lower speed for improved energy efficiency. The slim style design is about half the size or less than a traditional condensing unit,

The condensing units can adjust the compressor motor speed to quickly maintain a precise temperature, operating at a lower speed for improved energy efficiency. The slim style design is about half the size or less than a traditional condensing unit, occupying significantly less space.

Provides improved efficiency that can save you money compared to older systems. Inverter-driven condensers adjust their speed according to demand, using only the energy needed to maintain a consistent temperature. In contrast, traditional systems ope

Provides improved efficiency that can save you money compared to older systems. Inverter-driven condensers adjust their speed according to demand, using only the energy needed to maintain a consistent temperature. In contrast, traditional systems operate by constantly cycling on and off, running at full power until the desired temperature is reached, then turning off, repeating this cycle.
