Livermore's reputation is built on summer heat, but locals know the winters don’t pull any punches either. When the temperature drops on a clear January night, a reliable heating system moves from convenience to necessity.
Eagle Air has been handling home heating in the Tri-Valley since 1993. We understand the range of homes here, from older properties with minimal insulation to newer constructions built to modern energy standards.
Our approach is simple: figure out what your home needs, then deliver it.

Understanding Your Home's Heat Loss
The effectiveness of your heating system depends on how well your home holds heat. Many Tri-Valley homes built before modern energy codes have significant air leaks around windows, doors, and attic spaces. When warm air escapes quickly through these gaps, your furnace works harder than necessary to maintain a comfortable temperature. The system constantly fights heat loss, with the warmth it produces seeping outside almost as fast as it's generated.
Installing a bigger furnace in a leaky home won't fix cold spots or improve comfort. It usually creates worse problems, with some rooms overheating while others stay drafty and uncomfortable. The real solution is to evaluate how your house retains heat and address the root causes.
Systems with variable-speed blowers help by distributing air more evenly throughout your home, preventing the common problem where heat collects at the ceiling while floors stay cold. This approach considers your home's specific layout and insulation characteristics, rather than simply increasing the heating power.

Heating systems have undergone significant improvements over the past few decades. Older furnaces operated at around 80% efficiency, which means 20 cents of every dollar you spent on gas went straight up the chimney as waste. Modern condensing furnaces exceed 90% efficiency by capturing and using heat from exhaust gases that older models vented outside. This translates directly to lower utility bills and reduced environmental impact.
Heat pumps offer a different approach worth considering. Instead of burning fuel to create heat, they move existing thermal energy from outdoor air into your home. Even when temperatures drop near freezing, there's still heat energy available in the atmosphere that can be extracted and concentrated. This technology aligns with California's push toward cleaner energy and offers real flexibility. Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling from a single system, and they can be used in conjunction with your existing gas furnace as a dual-fuel setup. When temperatures are moderate, the heat pump operates efficiently to handle the load. When temperatures drop extremely low, your gas system kicks in as a backup.
