Replacing an Old System in Culver City? Start Here.
Old galvanized ducts, a floor furnace, no room in the attic: we walk the house, tell you which system fits it, and put the price in a written estimate before work starts.

New systems first, and the care that keeps them running.
Central AC, heat pumps, furnaces, ductless, and ductwork for a new install, with repair and tune-ups after it is in.
AC Installation
New central AC sized by load calculation for Culver City bungalows, hillside homes, and condo buildings, with the permit filed and the install day planned around whoever lives there.
AC Repair
Repair on systems we installed or inherited, with a plain answer on whether the unit is worth fixing or due for replacement before you spend on it.
AC Maintenance
Tune-ups that keep a newly installed system running the way it was set up on day one: coils, drain, refrigerant charge, and airflow checked against the install readings.
Ductless Mini Split
Ductless heads for Carlson Park bungalows with no attic duct space, converted garages, and condo units where a building will not allow new duct runs.
Heating Installation
Gas furnace and heat pump installs for Culver City houses and rental units, sized by load calculation, with floor furnace replacements a common starting point.
Heating Repair
Furnace and heat pump repair in Culver City, with a straight read on whether an old floor furnace or tired heat pump should be replaced instead.
Heating Maintenance
Annual heating checks before the cool months, with a carbon monoxide test and a heat exchanger inspection on every gas furnace we look at.
Indoor Air Quality
Filtration, UV lights, and fresh-air ventilation added at install time, when the air handler is open and the return can be fitted for better filter media.
Ductwork Services
New duct runs and replacement sections for Culver City homes still on original galvanized ducts, so a new system does not push air into the crawlspace.
Smart Thermostat
Smart thermostat installs set up with a new system, with zones programmed and a C-wire run where the old thermostat never had one.
Field work that accounts for the lot, and a plain-language answer once it's done.
Culver Climate Co. does installs the slow way on paper and the quick way on site: load calculation, duct test, placement, and permit worked out ahead, so the install day in Culver City is short and the tenants or family living there know exactly when the cooling goes off and comes back.
A replacement on a tight Culver City lot goes better when the hard parts are decided early: which ducts stay, where the condenser can sit without crowding a neighbor, and what the HOA will sign off on.
Owners replacing several rental units get one written scope per unit and an install order tenants can plan around, then a closing report once the city inspection passes.

Size It Before You Buy It
Every new system starts with a load calculation for the actual house or unit. A Culver City bungalow, a Culver Crest hillside home, and a Fox Hills condo need different equipment, and guessing from square footage gets at least one of them wrong.
Plan the Spot First
Where the outdoor unit sits, how the line set runs, and what the HOA allows are settled on the walkthrough, not on install day. That keeps the crew from improvising on a sloped lot or a tight side yard.
Tenants Get a Real Window
On rentals and multi-unit buildings, each tenant gets a date and an arrival window, and cooling goes off only for the hours the swap takes. Managers hear when each unit is done.
Paperwork That Matches the Equipment
Permit filed, inspection closed, model and serial numbers recorded. When an owner sells or refinances, the records show exactly what was installed and when.

A slope in Culver Crest, an HOA in Fox Hills, a bungalow with no duct space in Carlson Park: each neighborhood changes where the equipment can go, and each page below says how.

Culver City
residential neighborhoods near tech and entertainment hubs
Peak cooling loads stay moderate here because the ocean breeze arrives most afternoons, so a new system seldom needs extra capacity. It does need enough moisture removal for the damp marine-layer mornings, which is why the load calculation counts latent load. On the western blocks of town, a coated outdoor coil is worth specifying, since salt air wears down bare aluminum fins.
Mar Vista
mid-century residential neighborhood on the Westside
Morning marine layer is reliable enough here that peak cooling loads stay moderate most of the season, but the moisture it brings still has to factor into unit sizing rather than get treated as a footnote. That same ocean air pushes salt a few miles inland, so we spec coated coils and hardware that hold up better than uncoated parts do closer to the valleys.
Venice
beach community homes and canal-adjacent properties
Fog tends to sit in through midday most of the year, so real cooling demand shows up only on the afternoons when the marine layer burns off early rather than across a long stretch of summer. Salt air off the beach is the bigger long-term factor for equipment here, so coated coils and a regular freshwater rinse do more for a system's lifespan than anything else we spec.

From walkthrough to a passed inspection
How a new system goes into a Culver City house or building, step by step.
Walkthrough at the Property
A technician comes out to measure the rooms, look at the existing equipment, and check where new equipment could sit. For a building, we walk every unit on the list and note access, roof or side-yard placement, and any HOA limits.
Load Calculation and Options
We run a Manual J load calculation and pressure test the ducts if they will stay. You get one or two equipment options sized to the result, ducted or ductless, heat pump or furnace, with the reasons for each.
Written Estimate and Permit
The estimate lists the equipment, any duct work, the electrical, and the permit. Once it is approved, we file the mechanical permit with Culver City's building department and order the equipment.
Install Day on Your Schedule
Tenants and household members get a date and a window. The old system comes out, the new one goes in, and it is charged, tested, and running before the crew leaves. Multi-unit jobs move one unit at a time.
Inspection and Handover
We meet the city inspector, close the permit, and hand over the model and serial numbers, the thermostat settings, and a first tune-up date. Owners with several properties get it all in one report.
