Boiler & Radiant Heat in Mountain View: what's different

Boiler & Radiant Heat in Mountain View is shaped by local conditions. Eichler radiant floors: Eichler homes have in-slab radiant heating that can leak and often lack ducts for cooling.

Many homes have gas forced-air furnaces with or without central AC, and Eichler homes use radiant floor heating in concrete slabs. Heat pumps are common in remodels and new construction. Waverly Park and Cuesta Park have 1950s and 1960s ranch homes with ducts in crawl spaces or low attics, and many have been expanded with second stories that run warm in summer. For boiler & Radiant Heat, that means the contractor should start with system check and confirm what is actually installed before quoting. Another local pattern worth mentioning to the tech: electrification. Heat pumps are increasingly the standard replacement for gas furnaces.

The City of Mountain View Building Division issues mechanical permits, and California requires C-20 licensed contractors. City and regional programs encourage electrification.
