Common questions in Sacramento.
How do SMUD heat pump rebates work in Sacramento?
SMUD offers residential rebates for homeowners who replace an existing natural gas furnace with a qualifying variable-stage or multi-stage electric heat pump system. Because SMUD's electricity rates are much lower than California investor-owned utilities, heat pumps are also very economical to run through Sacramento winters.
Can you replace rooftop package units on Carmichael and Arden-Arcade ranch homes?
Yes. Many 1950s–1970s ranch homes across Arden-Arcade, Carmichael, and Fair Oaks have packaged gas-electric or heat pump units mounted on the roof. We handle the complete replacement, including crane rigging, curb adapter sealing, and Title 24 HERS verification.
Do you serve Placer and Yolo County suburbs like Roseville and West Sacramento?
Yes. Our licensed partner crews serve the entire Greater Sacramento region, including Roseville, Rocklin, Folsom, Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova, Davis, and West Sacramento, pulling permits for each local building department.
Sacramento climate and homes.
Sacramento climate and homes.
Sacramento afternoons can pass 102°F when the Delta breeze stalls, though evenings often cool into the 60s. Older central neighborhoods have crawlspace homes, while newer suburbs have two-story homes with attic furnaces.
Your local weather
Sacramento sits in IECC Climate Zone 3B and California Title 24 Zone 12. Summers are long, dry, and hot—with 30+ days hitting 95°F–105°F—though evening Delta breezes from the Carquinez Strait often cool overnight temperatures down into the 60s. Winters bring tule fog and chilly 35°F–45°F mornings that newer electric heat pumps handle with ease.
Homes and ductwork
East Sacramento, Land Park, Curtis Park, and Midtown feature 1910s–1940s craftsman and Tudor homes with raised foundations and crawlspaces. Post-war suburbs like Arden-Arcade, Carmichael, Fair Oaks, and Citrus Heights are rich with low-pitch ranch homes (including many with rooftop package units), while Elk Grove, Natomas, Folsom, and Roseville feature two-story stucco slab homes with attic furnaces.
Utilities and rebates
Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) for electricity in Sacramento County (or Roseville Electric / PG&E in Placer and Yolo County suburbs) and PG&E for natural gas. SMUD offers substantial residential rebates for converting from a PG&E gas furnace to an all-electric heat pump HVAC or heat pump water heater.
