Jazz Heating & Air Conditioning is proud to serve Santa Rosa, Sonoma County, and Napa with professional HVAC and plumbing services designed to keep your home comfortable and worry-free.
Every summer, Northern California faces intense heatwaves. In Santa Rosa, Petaluma, and Napa, triple-digit days aren’t uncommon — and when they hit, your air conditioner becomes your most important appliance. The worst time to discover a problem is during the first big heatwave, when HVAC companies are flooded with emergency calls.
That’s why preparing your system in advance is so important. At Jazz Heating, Air Conditioning and Plumbing, we specialize in seasonal tune-ups and AC repairs that keep families cool and safe. Here’s how to get your home ready before the mercury soars.
Why Proactive AC Prep Matters
When temperatures climb above 100°F along Highway 101 or during the Napa Valley harvest season, your AC works harder than ever. Without maintenance, it’s more likely to:
- Break down unexpectedly
- Run inefficiently, driving up energy bills
- Circulate dusty or smoky air during wildfire season
Regular prep saves money, improves comfort, and gives you peace of mind.
Homeowner AC Checklist
Before the first heatwave, take these simple steps:
- Change or Clean Air Filters: Dirty filters strain your system and reduce airflow.
- Test Your Thermostat: Make sure it responds quickly and accurately.
- Clear Outdoor Units: Remove leaves, grass, or debris from around the condenser.
- Seal Air Leaks: Check windows and doors to keep cool air inside.
These small tasks go a long way toward preventing mid-summer breakdowns.
Professional AC Tune-Up Services
While DIY steps help, professional maintenance is the best way to ensure your AC is truly ready for a heatwave. Jazz technicians perform:
- Full system inspection
- Refrigerant level checks
- Electrical component testing
- Airflow measurements
- Cleaning of coils and drains
Don’t wait for the first heatwave — call Jazz Heating & Air Conditioning today to schedule your AC tune-up.
Local Concerns: Wildfire Smoke & Air Quality
In addition to heat, many North Bay homeowners face wildfire smoke in late summer and fall. Poor indoor air quality can make hot days even more dangerous. Jazz offers solutions like:
- HEPA filters and whole-home air purifiers
- Duct cleaning and sealing
- Smart thermostats with air quality sensors
These upgrades protect your family’s health while keeping your home comfortable.
Signs Your AC May Need Repair
If you notice these red flags, it’s best to call for service before the next heatwave hits:
- Warm air blowing instead of cold
- Strange noises or vibrations
- Uneven cooling from room to room
- Higher-than-usual energy bills
