IRBIS covers all residential HVAC services Los Gatos properties need: cooling, heating, heat pumps, and water heaters, with same-day availability and Carrier-certified status. Two distinct microclimates within the same city, sheltered downtown and warmer hillside neighborhoods, mean system sizing varies significantly depending on where the property sits.
Los Gatos summers reach 84°F+ and hillside neighborhoods in Los Gatos Hills and Lexington Hills run noticeably warmer than sheltered downtown streets. Air conditioning is essential June through September, and sizing has to match the actual site, not the city average. IRBIS handles air conditioning repair for homes of any age.
January lows fall between 34-41°F, and Los Gatos receives 26 inches of annual rainfall, making it the wettest city in the IRBIS service area. Wet winters from November through March put more demand on heating systems than most nearby cities. Furnace reliability before the season matters.
The 34-84°F temperature range is well suited for heat pump efficiency across both seasons. One system handles both heating and cooling, and qualifying installations may be eligible for Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE) rebates.
Repair, maintenance, and installation for traditional and heat pump water heater models, for residential properties throughout Los Gatos.

Alert
Los Gatos sits at the edge of the Santa Cruz Mountains, where the hills shape both rainfall and summer temperatures in ways that do not apply to flatland South Bay cities. Two distinct conditions, sheltered downtown and exposed hillside neighborhoods, mean a system sized for one part of the city may significantly miss for another.
Los Gatos receives 26 inches of annual rainfall, more than San Jose, San Mateo, or Palo Alto. Wet winters from November through March mean heating systems here work harder and run longer than in drier parts of the service area. Filter and duct maintenance schedules should account for this.
Downtown sits cooler and more sheltered by surrounding terrain. Los Gatos Hills and Lexington Hills run significantly warmer in summer, with peak temperatures that can exceed downtown readings by several degrees. HVAC sizing that ignores which part of the city a property sits in will either overshoot or fall short.
Silicon Valley Clean Energy serves Los Gatos, and qualifying upgrades can stack SVCE rebates with state programs. IRBIS confirms current amounts and handles all paperwork at the time of your estimate.

As the HVAC company Los Gatos homeowners call for any system, IRBIS services every residential property type in the area, from pre-1960 Victorians near Main Street to custom hillside builds and newer condos.
Victorian and Craftsman homes near downtown Main Street and Old Town form a significant share of the housing stock. Many were built without central ductwork. Ductless mini-split systems are the standard solution for these properties, delivering full heating and cooling with no structural renovation.
Newer condos and townhomes near Vasona Lake and the corridor have shared walls, HOA requirements, and limited mechanical access. IRBIS installs systems sized and configured for those layout constraints.
New construction calls for all-electric packages: heat pump, water heater, and EV charger installed as one coordinated job, built ahead of California's 2027 gas equipment ban.
Custom homes in Los Gatos Hills and Lexington Hills sit on larger lots with warmer summer exposures than downtown properties. IRBIS runs a custom load calculation for every hillside property rather than applying a standard suburban formula.

Residents of the City of Santa Clara, California, can get up to $10,000 back when they replace an old gas furnace with an electric heat pump. The rebate is offered by Silicon Valley Power (SVP), the city's municipal electric utility.

Search for a cold weather plumbing checklist, and you will get the same list every time: insulate your pipes, disconnect the garden hose, let the faucets drip overnight. It is good advice, and it is written for Chicago.
September 28, 2026
Your furnace has been sitting idle since spring. On some October evening, the Bay Area drops into the 40s, you push the thermostat up for the first time in months, and the system pulls air through whatever furnace filter was left in the slot back in May. That first heat cycle is when a neglected filter does the most damage: months of collected dust, pollen, pet hair, and summer wildfire smoke particles sitting directly in front of your blower.
