"Pacific Coast Home Services charged me $450.00 on May 10th to have my Air Conditioner repaired. On July 1st when the heat wave hit San Jose my air conditioner did not work. Pacific Coast did not stand by their GUARANTEE and I had to call another company to do the repairs. Thankfully, they were an honest company and made the repairs. Pacific Coast Home Services consisted of their salesman wanting to sell me a maintenance agreement for $900 ... I should have realized at that point he was not interested in fixing my problem and asked him to leave my house !!! He did remove a few leaves from the air conditioner and clipped a few nips off a bush nearby ... there was no repair done for his billing me $450.00. I am 92 years old and feel this was ELDER ABUSE !!! DO NOT CALL THIS COMPANY!!!"

Albert Nahman Services was founded in 1981 and has been serving Berkeley, CA and it surrounding areas in all their plumbing and HVAC needs. Each of our technicians went through rigorous training so we can guarantee that you will be receiving the proper service. We are also insured and supply a warranty for our parts for five years and up to twenty years on an re-piping or sewer replacement. Call us now to make your appointment!
"I contracted this company to install a new HVAC system at my property in Newark, CA, back in June 2024. This is my first such project and I needed a licensed company to help manage the entire installation, including getting all the relevant permits from Newark city's building inspection department. I have since been frustrated dealing with this company and my project has been stalled for over 2 months now. First, the company went ahead and started the installation process WITHOUT securing the right permits from the city. When we received a STOP WORK notice due to this, the project manager has been only giving me excuses on why there's been delays. When I enquired myself calling up the city, I found out that they have not received the necessary documentation from the HVAC company for over 4 weeks! My repeated follow ups with my direct project manager have not made any impact. Trying to find senior management of this firm to escalate is also nearly impossible! I will advise against working with this fraud company."

It's often worth replacing your old thermostat with a newer model that can enhance your home's comfort and energy efficiency. Upgrading to a programmable or smart thermostat can save you up to $200 per year on energy bills. Plus, smart thermostats offer convenient features like remote control and learning capabilities, making your home more comfortable and easier to manage.
Signs of a bad thermostat include your HVAC system not turning on when it's supposed to or failing to reach the desired temperature. If the thermostat's display is blank or not functioning properly, it could be malfunctioning. Another indicator is the HVAC system running continuously without shutting off or cycling on and off too frequently. You might also notice uneven temperatures throughout your home, with some rooms being too warm or too cold. These issues suggest that the thermostat is failing and may need repair or replacement to ensure your HVAC system operates efficiently.
A thermostat should last between 10 to 20 years, depending on its quality and how well it's maintained. Over time, dust, wiring issues, and general wear can affect its performance. Even if a thermostat is still functioning after 10 years, you might choose to replace it to take advantage of newer energy-saving technologies and smart home integrations. Upgrading to a modern thermostat can improve efficiency, offer more control over your home's climate, and potentially lower energy bills.
The number of thermostats you need depends on your home's size, layout, and heating and cooling zones. In a standard single-zone HVAC system, one thermostat controls the temperature for the entire home. However, larger homes or those with multiple floors might benefit from multiple thermostats linked to a multi-zone HVAC system. This setup can offer better comfort and energy efficiency: It lets you customize the temperature in different areas, so you're only heating or cooling the spaces you're using.
Replacing a thermostat typically takes a professional technician about one to two hours to complete. If you're swapping out an existing thermostat for a similar model with compatible wiring, the process can be done in less than an hour. However, installing a new thermostat that requires additional wiring, such as a smart thermostat, or moving the thermostat to a new location can extend the time to two hours or more. Complex installations may also involve cutting into drywall or integrating with other home systems, which can add to the duration.
There are a few things that can cause your home thermostat to fail. The most simple one is age and cleanliness. Dirt, grease, dust, and other small particles can clog sensors and cause malfunctions in readings. You may also have a failing power supply and loose connections, and the simplest cause is that it isn't installed in the right place in your home so it can't properly sense air temperature. Repairing a thermostat costs around $210.
