Professional Heating Installation in Pasadena, CA
When the chill sets in, a reliable and efficient heating system isn't a luxury—it's essential for your family's comfort and well-being. For homeowners and businesses in Pasadena, investing in a new heating system is a significant decision that impacts your comfort, safety, and energy bills for years to come. Professional heating installation ensures your new furnace or heat pump operates at peak performance from day one, providing consistent warmth and peace of mind through every cool season.
Choosing the right team for the job means selecting experts who understand the unique needs of Pasadena homes, from historic Craftsman bungalows to modern constructions. It requires a precise approach that guarantees safety, maximizes energy efficiency, and complies with all local codes and regulations.
Selecting the Ideal Heating System for Your Pasadena Home
The first step toward perfect indoor comfort is choosing the right type of heating system. Our experts help you navigate the options to find a solution that aligns with your property’s layout, your energy goals, and your budget.
High-Efficiency Furnaces
A trusted staple in home heating, modern furnaces offer exceptional reliability and powerful heating.
- Gas Furnaces: The most popular choice in Pasadena, natural gas furnaces provide fast, cost-effective heat. We install systems with high AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) ratings, ensuring that more of your fuel is converted directly into warmth for your home, reducing waste and lowering your utility bills.
- Electric Furnaces: For homes without access to a natural gas line, electric furnaces are a dependable and safe alternative. They are often less expensive to install upfront and offer quiet, consistent operation.
Versatile Heat Pumps
Heat pumps are an increasingly popular, all-in-one solution perfectly suited for Pasadena's mild climate.
- Year-Round Comfort: These incredibly efficient systems function as both a heater in the winter and an air conditioner in the summer. They work by transferring heat rather than creating it, which results in significant energy savings.
- Exceptional Efficiency: With high HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) ratings, heat pumps can drastically reduce your winter energy consumption compared to older heating methods. They are an environmentally friendly choice that delivers consistent comfort.
Ductless Mini-Split Systems
For homes with no existing ductwork, room additions, or specific zoning needs, ductless mini-splits offer targeted heating and cooling. These systems provide individual temperature control for different areas of your home, eliminating energy waste and improving overall comfort.
Our Meticulous Heating Installation Process
A flawless installation is the foundation of a long-lasting and efficient heating system. We have refined our process to be thorough, transparent, and focused on delivering superior results.
1. In-Depth Home Assessment and Load Calculation
We don't believe in guesswork. Our process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your home. We perform a Manual J load calculation, an industry-standard method that considers your home's size, layout, insulation levels, window types, and orientation. This critical step ensures we recommend a system that is perfectly sized for your specific needs—not too big and not too small. An improperly sized unit can lead to short cycling, increased energy use, and premature system failure.
2. Customized System Recommendation
Based on our assessment and your personal preferences, we present you with a clear set of options. We’ll walk you through the benefits of each recommended furnace or heat pump, explaining the efficiency ratings (AFUE, HSPF) in easy-to-understand terms so you can make an informed decision that benefits your comfort and your wallet.
3. Safe Removal of Your Old System
Our certified technicians will carefully disconnect and remove your old heating unit. We handle the entire process with respect for your property and ensure the old equipment is disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner, following all local regulations.
4. Precision Installation and Connection
This is where our expertise shines. Our NATE-certified technicians install your new heating system according to the manufacturer’s exact specifications and Pasadena’s building codes. This includes making precise connections to your ductwork, electrical system, and fuel lines. We ensure every component is perfectly integrated for safe and optimal performance.
5. System Commissioning and Rigorous Testing
Once the physical installation is complete, we don’t just turn it on and leave. We initiate a multi-point commissioning process to test every function of your new system. We check airflow, test safety controls, calibrate the thermostat, and verify that the unit is running at its peak efficiency rating.
6. Client Education and Walkthrough
We empower you to get the most out of your new investment. Our technician will provide a complete walkthrough of your new heating system, showing you how to operate the thermostat, change the filter, and understand its features. We won’t leave until all your questions are answered and you feel completely comfortable with your new system.
The Unmistakable Signs You Need a New Heater
Not sure if a repair will suffice? A full replacement is often the smarter financial decision if you notice these warning signs:
- Your System is Over 15 Years Old: Older units are significantly less efficient and more prone to breakdowns.
- Rising Energy Bills: A sudden, unexplained spike in your heating costs often indicates a failing, inefficient system.
- Frequent and Expensive Repairs: If you’re constantly calling for service, the cost of repairs can quickly add up to more than the value of the unit.
- Uneven Heating: Cold spots and inconsistent temperatures throughout your home are a clear sign your heater can no longer meet demand.
- Strange Noises: Banging, rattling, or screeching sounds can signal serious mechanical problems that may be beyond repair.

Ruben, went above and beyond to ensure that everything was handled seamlessly, demonstrating not just professionalism, but also a sincere dedication to customer satisfaction.
I can't recommend Piggies air Conditioning/Ruben highly enough. If you're looking for someone who combines expertise with exceptional service, look no further. They are a true example of what outstanding professionalism should be.
The technician arrived on time, which I really appreciated given how crucial air conditioning is in this heat. Ruben was professional and friendly, explaining what he was doing throughout the process. The issue I had was diagnosed fairly quickly, and they provided me with a few options on how to fix it. The pricing was transparent, and I didn't feel like there were any hidden costs, which is always a plus when it comes to service calls like these. Highly recommend this company!
1st & foremost, huge shout out to Ruben thank u so so much for reaching out & making things happen SO FAST! I was so surprised since i had reached out to a couple different places who lagged on even answering calls, messages, etc.
Ruben was also very informative & taught me ALOT that i didnt know about.

SUPER HUGE SHOUT OUT & THANKS for everything guys! Definitely recommending u guys to everyone i know.
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.
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.
