The Foundation of Performance: Why Expert Installation Matters

A heat pump is a sophisticated piece of equipment. Unlike a traditional furnace or air conditioner, it works by moving heat rather than creating it, a process that requires meticulous setup and calibration. Every step, from selecting the right unit to charging the refrigerant lines, has a direct impact on how well your system will work and how much you will save on your utility bills.

Our installation process is built on a foundation of precision and best practices:

Protecting Your Warranty: Most manufacturers’ warranties are contingent on the system being installed by a licensed and certified professional according to their exact specifications. A flawed installation can void your warranty, leaving you responsible for the full cost of future repairs.
Maximizing Energy Efficiency: A heat pump’s impressive SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) and HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) ratings are only achievable with proper installation. Incorrect refrigerant levels, leaky ductwork, or improper unit placement can drastically increase energy consumption, negating the savings you expected.
Ensuring Long-Term Reliability: Many common heat pump repairs stem from installation errors. By ensuring every connection is secure, every component is correctly calibrated, and the entire system is balanced, we minimize the risk of premature breakdowns and extend the operational life of your equipment.
Guaranteeing Home Comfort: The ultimate goal is to keep your home comfortable year-round. Our expert process ensures consistent temperatures in every room, proper humidity control, and quiet operation, allowing you to enjoy a perfect indoor environment.

Our Comprehensive Heat Pump Installation Process

We believe in a transparent and thorough approach to every installation. Our process is designed to be comprehensive, addressing every variable of your Whittier home to ensure a customized and highly effective solution.

In-Depth Home Assessment and Consultation

The process begins not with a sales pitch, but with a detailed evaluation of your property. Our technicians will assess your home’s unique characteristics, including its size, layout, insulation levels, window quality, and existing ductwork. We take the time to understand your family’s comfort needs, energy goals, and budget. This initial step is crucial for tailoring a system that is a perfect fit for your home and lifestyle.

Precise System Sizing (Manual J Calculation)

One of the most critical steps in any HVAC installation is correctly sizing the equipment. We don’t rely on guesswork or outdated rules of thumb. We perform a detailed Manual J load calculation, an industry-standard method that determines the exact heating and cooling capacity your home requires.

An Oversized System will short-cycle, turning on and off frequently. This leads to wasted energy, poor dehumidification, and unnecessary wear and tear on components.
An Undersized System will run constantly without ever reaching the desired temperature, leading to high energy bills and inadequate comfort, especially during peak summer heat or a cold snap.

Our precise calculations guarantee your new heat pump is the perfect size to operate efficiently and effectively.

Expert Equipment Selection and System Design

With the sizing calculations complete, we guide you through selecting the ideal heat pump for your needs. We work with leading manufacturers and can explain the benefits of different models, efficiency ratings, and features like variable-speed technology. Whether you need a traditional ducted system or a flexible ductless mini-split solution, we design a system that integrates seamlessly with your home.

Meticulous and Code-Compliant Installation

Our certified technicians execute the installation with unparalleled attention to detail. This includes:

Safe Removal: We carefully decommission and remove your old heating and cooling equipment, ensuring proper and environmentally responsible disposal.
Strategic Placement: The outdoor condenser and indoor air handler are strategically placed to ensure optimal airflow, easy maintenance access, and minimal noise disruption.
Electrical and Refrigerant Lines: All electrical connections are made safely and in compliance with Whittier city codes. Refrigerant lines are expertly installed and charged to the manufacturer’s exact specifications—a critical factor for efficiency and performance.
Ductwork Integration: If you have existing ducts, we inspect and seal them to prevent air loss, ensuring heated and cooled air is delivered where it’s needed most.

System Commissioning and Final Walkthrough

Once the physical installation is complete, our job isn’t finished. We perform a multi-point system commissioning process to verify that everything is operating perfectly. We test airflow, check refrigerant pressures, calibrate the thermostat, and run the system through both heating and cooling cycles. We then provide you with a full walkthrough, showing you how to operate your new system and answering any questions you may have.

Ruben and team at Piggies Air Conditioning were amazing to work with. They got our AC installed and our old unit removed within 1 day and at a great price. We highly recommend Piggies Air Conditioning!

Ruben from Piggies went above and beyond when he came to provide us with a quote for doing some duct work. He was also able to identify the underlying problem as to why we have been having a major issue with our heat in our office suite. He took photos, explained the issue, what he could and could not do, and what to communicate to our property owner. He spent far longer answering questions and finding the source of an issue that wasn't even the reason why he was onsite. EXCELLENT
CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Piggies AC is hands down my favorite HVAC contractor. Ruben truly cares about true home comfort. If I could leave 10 stars I would. Thanks Piggies

I recently had my air conditioning unit serviced by Ruben, and I couldn't be more impressed. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and professional. He arrived on time, was incredibly knowledgeable, and explained the issue in a way that was easy to understand.

I highly recommend this company for anyone needing AC repair or maintenance. I'll definitely be calling them again for any future needs!

Jose R.

First of all I NEVER do reviews or rate any company or product. But, Piggies Air Conditioning did an amazing job at a GREAT price! I always get at least 3 estimates, and in this particular situation, I had at least 5. These guys were the most reasonable by several thousand dollars, with BETTER equipment that the others! Our ac and heat package is at least a 17 seer system, which is top of the line! I've been in the construction business my entire life, and dealt with many companies from all the trades. It really doesn't get any better than Piggies! This company and its personnel were on time, and courteous, which is hard to come by these days. Ruben, Luis were very professional, and I was in constant contact with them throughout the job. The Daikin product is one of the best in the world! I'm giving Piggies two thumbs way up!

Ruben was very responsive and quick to assess. Gave really great advice and cares about the service he provides. Looking forward to using Piggies for HVAC issues and maintenance.

Tran L.

Overall great job replacing our antiquated AC unit. The evaluation and detail is a big deal to us. Rueben explained all the techincal aspects and gave us great
recommendations and feedback. The actual installation was painless and unremarkable, his AC experts got it done, got it cleaned and most importantly got it right. Rueben even went a step further to assure we had
protection from the coming rain, that is service unheard of these days. His price was competitive and a REAL value for the service we recieved. Using anyone else for your AC needs, would be a huge mistake. We thank them again and will recommend to everyone.

Therese F.

I am a realtor in Los Angeles, and while we were getting ready to sell my clients home in Pasadena, an inspector from another company backed into my clients air conditioner. I was referred to Piggies AC by another trusted client so I called them. I talked to Ruben, he answered the phone right away, answered some of my initial questions, and was able to get me an appointment just two days later. On site Ruben was there on time, was extremely knowledgeable, And told us the best course of action to get the AC unit back in good working order. A day or two later he sent us an invoice and his prices were very reasonable. I am happy, Client is happy, thank you Ruben!

Woody M.

Leaving a 5-star review just after the initial inspection because I was blown away by Ruben's professionalism.
Echoing a lot of the other reviews here, Piggies Air Conditioning responds so quickly to requests (even though I actually accidentally sent in multiple requests on my side without responding, oops!)
They were able to come do a FREE energy audit and initial inspection on the same day and Ruben was amazing at explaining his thoughts on our house's situation and what he thought was worth the money and wasn't worth the money.
I truly felt like he was trying to help me find the best solution to our issues instead of just trying to upsell us on everything and anything.
I'm definitely recommending this business to anyone I know if they want a trustworthy and realistic service, value, and quality.
