Coleman in East Palo Alto
East Palo Alto's housing stock is mostly modest single-story homes built from the 1950s through the 1970s, many of them without any central cooling because the Peninsula's marine layer used to keep afternoons comfortable enough without it. That pattern has been shifting, and a fair number of our calls now are homeowners asking what it takes to add cooling to a house that has run on windows and fans its whole life.
Retrofitting central AC or a heat pump into a home that never had ductwork is a bigger job than swapping out an old furnace, since we have to figure out where duct runs will actually fit in the attic and whether the panel has room for a new circuit. Coleman's ducted lineup gives us a mid-market option for that conversion that does not price the homeowner out of getting cooling at all.
For the East Palo Alto homes that already have an older gas furnace and no AC, a Coleman heat pump conversion covers both jobs in one system, heating and cooling, without running two separate pieces of equipment. We check the existing ductwork's condition first, since older duct runs sized for heating alone sometimes need modification to move enough air for cooling. ADRIUM Service Solutions, our company, is CSLB #1136642 and EPA 608 certified for refrigerant work. The diagnostic visit is $99, credited toward the repair, and we put every East Palo Alto estimate in writing, seven days a week. Call (925) 999-4095.
Coleman work we do in East Palo Alto
First-time AC and heat pump retrofits. The most common East Palo Alto job is adding cooling where there was none, usually a Coleman heat pump paired with new or modified ductwork in a home that has run on a gas furnace alone for decades. We map the attic for duct runs before quoting, since access varies a lot house to house.
Panel capacity checks before heat pump conversion. Older East Palo Alto homes often have a 100-amp panel already carrying a full modern load, and a Coleman heat pump conversion sometimes needs panel headroom that isn't there. We check this up front rather than discovering it mid-install.
Furnace replacement on original 1960s and 70s equipment. Where a home already has ductwork, we are frequently replacing a gas furnace original to the house, usually failing on a cracked heat exchanger or a burned-out blower motor. A Coleman ducted furnace is a fair-value swap when the ductwork underneath still tests tight.
