Local homes
Sunnyvale housing and HVAC
Many homes have gas forced-air furnaces in attics or closets with central AC added later, and Eichler homes use in-slab radiant heat with no ducts. Heat pumps are increasingly common in remodels and as gas furnace replacements.
Sunnyvale has warm, dry summers with highs in the low 80s and occasional 100°F heat waves, and mild, wet winters. Bay Area air district rules are phasing out new gas furnaces and water heaters.
Permits and seasonal timing in Sunnyvale
The City of Sunnyvale Building Safety Division issues mechanical permits, and California requires C-20 licensed contractors and Title 24 compliance. Silicon Valley Clean Energy has offered electrification incentives.
Eichler radiant heat
In-slab radiant systems can leak and need specialized repair, and Eichlers have no attics for ducts, so ductless heat pumps are the usual way to add cooling.
Gas phase-out
Regional rules make heat pumps the long-term replacement for aging gas furnaces, often paired with panel upgrades.
Aging ranch-home ducts
Original attic and crawl space ducts often leak and lack insulation, wasting heating and cooling.
