Valley Heating, Cooling, Electrical and Solar

 
Planning service around a home’s age layout and usage can prevent surprises. Valley Heating Cooling Electrical and Solar schedules assessments to review system size duct condition insulation levels and electrical capacity before any install or repair. Teams handle ac repair in San Jose along with full AC replacements when equipment is past its life. For heating techs provide new furnace setups heat pump installation for efficient year-round use and ductless mini split installation for rooms without existing ducts. Custom ductwork helps balance airflow to distant rooms and insulation installation can steady indoor temperatures. Indoor air quality services include filtration and ventilation options suited to local conditions. Water heater installation is matched to household demand while electrical services resolve safety and capacity concerns that come with added appliances or EV charging. Solar installation services are coordinated with roof condition and utility requirements. Routine hvac service in San Jose CA supports efficiency documents equipment health and helps plan future upgrades.

Thomas Atkinson II started the business as Valley Heating and Cooling in 1962, after years spent working for a leading HVAC manufacturer. His son, Thomas Atkinson III, took over in 1980 and ran it for 23 years before handing it on to owners he believed would protect what the family had built. Cindy Faulkner leads the company today, and the motto the Atkinsons operated by, the Home of Old-Fashioned Service, still frames how the team describes its work.

The name has grown to match the scope. Alongside heating and cooling, Valley runs a solar division covering panel installation, system maintenance, battery backup, and solar attic fans. The electrical side handles panel and breaker repair, interior and exterior lighting, ceiling fans, EV charger circuits, standby generators, and commercial electrical work. QuietCool whole house fans, dryer vent cleaning, and fireplace installation fill out the residential menu, and a separate commercial HVAC group serves business properties across the region.

Coverage runs well past San Jose. The company lists 26 communities across Silicon Valley and the Peninsula, among them Los Gatos, Campbell, Saratoga, Cupertino, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Los Altos, Palo Alto, Stanford, Menlo Park, Atherton, Redwood City, San Carlos, San Mateo, Milpitas, Fremont, Union City, Morgan Hill, Gilroy, San Martin, Boulder Creek, and La Honda. Because the crews are in-house across three trades, projects that cross trade lines stay with one contractor: a heat pump that needs added panel capacity, or an air quality upgrade tied to duct repairs, does not require a second company.
