Applegate HVAC, Plumbing Pros Since 1981

Applegate is a small foothill community strung along the I-80 corridor at roughly 1,900 feet, where properties sit on wooded acreage rather than in subdivisions. Most homes run propane instead of natural gas, many draw from a private well, and plumbing runs travel long unheated distances through crawlspaces and under driveways. Winters bring frost and the occasional snow, summers are hot and dry with serious fire season awareness. American Energy Home Pros has served Northern California since 1981, and our licensed technicians (License #1083187) come prepared for propane equipment, well pressure systems, and the access realities of gravel drives.

Applegate HVAC, Plumbing Questions

Quick answers to common HVAC and plumbing questions from Applegate homeowners. Don’t see what you need? Call us anytime.

Do you come out to Applegate?

Yes. Applegate is on our Placer County foothill route with Auburn, Colfax, and Newcastle. Long gravel driveways and gates are normal here, so we confirm access details when we schedule.

Is a heat pump a good idea at this elevation?

On its own it struggles on the coldest Applegate nights. A dual fuel setup works better: the heat pump handles mild weather efficiently and the propane furnace takes over below its balance point. We calculate that crossover for your specific home.

My well pressure keeps dropping. Where do I start?

Carter from American Energy exceeded my expectations for a standard inspection. He left our HVAC system looking bright and shiny! He called before and was able to come by early. Really appreciated that!

Greg Rangel was on time, gave me a courtesy call before he arrived, and once he arrived, he called to find out the issues with the AC and got to work. Greg provided me with information about the AC unit after he found out what was happening, and he walked me through the process and the cost! He also changed the filter! I am now a member due to his outstanding customer service. Thank you, Greg, for your professionalism.

This company responded immediately to address an air conditioning problem for my elderly Mother during 100 degree heat. They responded in just a couple of hours. Greg Rangel was the technician and fixed the problem. He did explain the unit was older and would soon need replacement. He thoroughly explained this to me and offered a senior discount for my Mother and a lower priced unit. Job well done and thank you.

Truly professionals. Garrett showed up at scheduled time, answered all my questions and did a thorough inspection of my unit. Never felt pressured or like I was trying to be sold on anything. He explained everything along the way. An issue was found on some wiring outside, I was shown the issue and given the option to have it fixed. He showed me the completed work and the material used. I would highly recommend this locally owned and operated company.

Greg arrived late Saturday evening and worked out the problem. He explained the problem and eventually determined it began with the original set up of the thermostat, which was wrong for a heat pump. The problem was fixed, and great credit to Greg for being enthusiastic, professional and staying until it was done.
