Equipment we install for full hvac system replacement in Mill Valley
Full-system replacements in the Bay Area increasingly mean removing aging gas furnace + AC combos and installing single high-efficiency heat pumps that handle both heating and cooling with one piece of outdoor equipment. We coordinate electrical service upgrades (panel, sub-panel, conductor sizing) with a licensed electrician when the heat pump tonnage requires it.
Rebates and incentives in Mill Valley
Mill Valley qualifying installations are eligible for BayREN Home+ — the Bay-Area-wide rebate program for heat pump HVAC, heat pump water heaters, insulation, and air sealing. See current BayREN rebates for the latest amounts. TECH Clean California adds heat-pump-specific incentives, and MCE Clean Energy runs additional electrification programs that change annually.
We itemize every program your specific equipment qualifies for in writing so you see the net cost, not just the sticker. Utility territory in Mill Valley is PG&E with MCE Clean Energy as the generation provider.
Permitting in Mill Valley
full hvac system replacement that involves equipment replacement, new ductwork, or major electrical work requires a permit through City of Mill Valley Planning and Building. PULSE HVAC pulls every permit, files California Title-24 compliance documentation, and coordinates HERS verification (where the scope requires it) on every install. Unpermitted HVAC work shows up in real-estate inspection and can cause headaches at closing — we keep the paperwork clean from day one.
