AC Repair in Alameda, CA
Alameda is an island city, reached from Oakland by three bridges and the Posey and Webster Street tubes. Summers here are warm but rarely hot, so air conditioning is mostly about a few uncomfortable weeks a year. For cooling or heating trouble on Alameda Island or Bay Farm Island, call (510) 288-2541.
Salt air and outdoor units
Condensers on an island take a steady dose of damp, salty air. Fins corrode, screws rust and electrical connections loosen sooner than they would inland. A yearly check of the coil and wiring is worth the small cost.
Alameda runs its own electric utility
The city operates its own electric utility, Alameda Municipal Power. It has offered rebates to homeowners who replace gas heating with a heat pump, so look at its current programs before you choose a system.
