ChillPro AC Repair travels about 22 miles from our San Jose base to repair heating and cooling systems in Santa Cruz County. We serve Lompico, Boulder Creek, Zayante, Brookdale, Ben Lomond and Scotts Valley. Homes in these communities range from older cabins to newer builds, and many depend on a furnace, heat pump or wall heater that has to run through cool, damp stretches of the year. When something stops working, we diagnose the cause, explain your options in plain terms and fix what needs fixing.
Heating and Cooling Repairs We Handle
Most calls we get from the area involve heat, but we work on cooling equipment too. We start with a full diagnosis so you know what failed and why before any work begins.
- Gas furnaces that won't ignite, short-cycle or blow cold air
- Heat pumps that aren't heating or cooling evenly
- Central air conditioners that run but don't cool
- Thermostat, wiring and control board problems
- Blower motors, capacitors and fan issues
- Airflow problems from blocked filters or damaged ducts
Common Issues in Mountain and Forest Homes
Wooded properties put specific stress on HVAC equipment. Leaves, needles and debris can collect around outdoor units and restrict airflow. Moisture and shade can encourage corrosion on exposed parts. Crawl spaces and attics sometimes attract rodents that chew wiring or damage duct insulation.
Power interruptions can also leave a system acting strangely once electricity returns. If your equipment won't restart properly after an outage, we check the controls, safety switches and electrical connections before assuming a major part has failed.
Scheduling a Visit
Because we're coming from San Jose, it helps to share a few details when you book. Tell us what the system is doing, any error codes or unusual sounds, and the age and type of equipment if you know it. Let us know about steep driveways, gates or tight parking so our technician arrives prepared.
If you can, clear a path to the indoor unit and outdoor equipment. That saves time and lets us focus on the repair.
Repair or Replace?
We'll recommend a repair when it makes sense and tell you plainly when an older system is likely to keep failing. If replacement is on the table, we walk through options such as switching to a heat pump.
Note that the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit only covered qualifying heat pumps placed in service before December 31, 2025, so it doesn't apply to new installations now. Your local clean energy provider may offer incentives, but amounts and availability change, so we confirm the current offer before quoting it. Equipment rules also vary by air district, and we check what applies to your address before you decide.
