Cal-Bay installed a high efficiency gas furnace several years ago. It has saved me gas and performed flawlessly. After the Napa earthquake the exhaust flu was shaken out of alignment causing the roof around it to leak. They came out on a house call and spent hours fixing it. The only charge was for the house call...They just don't advertise as much as the big companies. I wish they would, because they are an excellent company.

Maintaining Your HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for HVAC systems is something you can do yourself—replacing the air filter. Check your filter monthly. When a filter has a matting of dirt—i.e., it’s difficult to see through when you hold it up to a light—it’s time to replace it.

HVAC Maintenance Contracts Are Usually Bad Buys

Rather than paying for individual maintenance visits and repair jobs, you might consider getting a service contract for air-conditioning and/or heating equipment. Many companies try to persuade customers to enter into such contracts.
