Lompico is an unincorporated community in Santa Cruz County, about 17 miles southwest of our base in San Jose.

What Mountain Homes in Lompico Ask of an HVAC System
Lompico sits in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and houses here tend to differ from the tract homes common in the valley. Many are older or have been added onto over the years. Some sit on hillsides with crawlspaces or tight attics, and some are shaded by trees for much of the day. All of that affects how heating and cooling equipment performs.
For many Lompico households, heating matters more than cooling. A furnace or heat pump that runs reliably through damp, cool months is usually the first priority. Air conditioning still has a place, especially for rooms that heat up in the afternoon or for homeowners who want better comfort on warm days. We look at your home's layout, insulation and existing ductwork before suggesting equipment, so the system fits the house instead of the other way around.
Moisture and dust are worth paying attention to in wooded areas. Filters can load up faster, and outdoor units can collect leaves and debris. Regular maintenance and a clean duct system go a long way toward keeping equipment running and the air inside comfortable.
Repair or Replace? How We Help You Decide
When a system breaks down, we diagnose the specific problem and explain your options in plain terms. If a repair makes sense, we'll say so. If the equipment is near the end of its life or a repair would only buy a short time, we'll walk you through replacement choices, including furnaces, central air, heat pumps and ductless mini-splits.
Ductless mini-splits are often a good match for Lompico homes that don't have ductwork, have additions that were never connected to the main system, or have rooms that are always too warm or too cold. Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling from one system, which can simplify things in a house that currently runs a furnace and a separate AC unit.
A Note on Tax Credits and Incentives
Some homeowners still ask about the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit for heat pumps. That credit covered qualifying heat pumps placed in service before December 31, 2025, and it isn't available for new installations after that date.
Other incentive programs and local appliance rules depend on where your home is located and change over time. Because Lompico is in Santa Cruz County, the programs and rules that apply may differ from those in Santa Clara County. If incentives are part of your decision, we'll help you check what currently applies to your address before you commit to a project.
