Message from the Owner/ Founder: “As a third generation heating and air technician and retired 20 year veteran of fire and public safety, I wanted to create a service company that you could count on for its integrity and professionalism. When our service technicians arrive at your home, we want you to feel the same level of confidence and trust you get from a firefighter arriving at your home to help when you call 911. Our service technicians are professional, courteous, and well trained. I am comfortable allowing them into the homes of my families and friends who are firefighters, police officers and the public. Thank you for the opportunity to service your comfort needs and believing in our company. We look forward to a continued long relationship. Warm regards, Harry Abbott” Comfort Energy Inc is a full service provider of quality air conditioning and heating repair and installation. . Locally owned and operated, with over 30 years of experience. We are proud members of the Nexstar network of contractors. We specialize in helping homeowners make informed decisions to best meet your family's comfort needs. Spanish and Japanese spoken.
"We had a wonderful experience with Comfort Energy! The service person, whose name was Chance, did a thorough evaluation of the problem with a focus on saving us as much money as possible, to either repair or replace our 30-year-old heat furnace. He quickly determined that our inlet filter was too dense (it was a Merv 11 and should have been a Merv 8) and that that was probably causing the heater to go off an on every 5-10 minutes. He then tested and confirmed his hypothesis. He also performed a CO test to make sure there wasn't anything more serious going on. Finally, he gave us a good idea of replacement options, which we should probably do before the next Winter, but not necessarily right away. All in all, this is exactly the kind of assessment we needed, and it cost orders of magnitude less than what was estimated by the first service company we had come out. Chance was great, and Comfort Energy is our go-to for heating and cooling service and/or installation from now on."

"Called this company for their $77 dollar, which they advertised with a flyer, for a tune-up and cleaning for my heating system. They are a Hayward company and I was told that our Castro Valley home was not in their service area. I bet if I called to buy a new heater they would be out in a day."

Thermostat installations and replacements FAQs
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.
