HVAC Installation & System Replacement in Fresno, CA

There are nearly as many choices in heating and cooling equipment as there are in buying a car. You want what's right for your lifestyle and desires, but there are hundreds of makes and models available. Our consultant will ask what your needs and desires are, and assess the physical requirements of your particular home.

Since every family, every home and every climate is different, together we can determine the systems available that are right for your home's size and floor plan, and also meets your family's air quality requirements, needs and wants. There are many standard, upgrade, and custom options available to choose from in your new home comfort system.

When considering a new system, think carefully about what air quality and moisture control components to include — particularly if anyone in your family has allergies, respiratory or health issues, or dry scalp and skin. The high-tech air quality products of today can exceed hospital air filtration standards for general surgery.

Zoning control is also available, and allows you to heat and cool the exact rooms you want, to the exact temperature you want. Temperature zoning can reduce energy usage by up to 33% compared to a central thermostat without setback.

High-efficiency equipment may nearly pay for itself in utility savings, so efficiency level is a very important consideration. Up to 50% of your home's energy costs may go toward heating and cooling — ask about reducing energy consumption with higher-efficiency systems.

Yes. JC Melton has extensive experience upgrading and modernizing HVAC systems in older Fresno homes, including properties with original ductwork, non-standard configurations, or equipment that hasn't been updated in decades. The company's 75+ years of service history means technicians have worked on virtually every generation of residential HVAC equipment. If your home has an aging system and you're unsure whether to repair, replace, or retrofit, a JC Melton consultant can evaluate what's in place and recommend the most cost-effective path forward — including high-efficiency options eligible for federal tax credits and utility rebates.

Who you choose for the installation of your new system has a significant impact on your comfort and the cost of operating it. In fact, installation quality could have a much greater impact on your home comfort than the equipment itself. When your new system arrives and is ready to install, our friendly installation technicians will carefully install it in your home. Respecting your home is a standard of excellence we take very seriously.

New installations typically include:

• Line & control wiring
• Gas piping
• Condensate drain
• Programmable night set-back thermostat
• Initial duct test & verification
• Building permits

Replacement of existing units typically includes everything above, plus:

• Removal & disposal of existing equipment
• Retrieval of used refrigerant (environmentally compliant)

All work is performed to California code standards under State Contractors License #842258.

Most people would not consider proactively budgeting for a breakdown or replacement of their heating and air conditioning system. We suggest using our financing options as a convenient way to pay for your new system over time, subject to approved credit. Often there are financing rebates, specials and incentives to take advantage of. Your energy savings over time can also help offset the investment.

JC Melton can also discuss available manufacturer rebates, utility company incentives, and federal tax credits (IRS Form 5695, sections 25C and 25D) that may apply to qualifying high-efficiency equipment.
