San Leandro homes and their heating
Much of San Leandro was built in the 1940s and 1950s. Those homes have furnaces and ducts that are now well past their original life.
- 1940s and 1950s homes
Furnaces in the hall closet, attic or garage, many on their second or third replacement.
- Older neighborhoods near downtown
Floor furnaces and wall heaters in homes that never had ducts.
- Original ductwork
Leaky, undersized or crushed ducts that waste the heat before it reaches the room.
- Warmer summers
More homes here want cooling. A heat pump replaces the furnace and adds AC.
What to know about heating in San Leandro
Floor furnaces and original wall heaters still heat many older San Leandro homes. Most are outdated and ready for a retrofit. We recommend an inspection once a year before the heating season and regular maintenance after that.
Many older heating systems here have asbestos in the duct wrap, duct tape, flue pipe or furnace cabinet. Left alone and intact it is not a hazard. It must not be cut, sanded or torn out. If we suspect it, it gets tested and handled by a certified abatement contractor before any work goes forward.
Replacing a furnace or installing a heat pump in San Leandro needs a permit from the City of San Leandro. We pull it as part of the job.

Do you service San Leandro?
Yes. Oakland Air Pros repairs and replaces home heating and cooling across San Leandro.
Should I replace my San Leandro furnace with a heat pump?
If the furnace is near the end of its life, a heat pump replaces it and adds cooling in one system. We price the furnace and the heat pump side by side in writing so you can decide.
How often should an older heater be inspected?
Once a year, before the heating season starts. Older floor furnaces, wall heaters and furnaces should also get regular maintenance. An inspection catches cracked parts, bad venting and carbon monoxide risks before you need the heat.
Do older heating systems contain asbestos?
Many do, in the duct wrap, duct tape, flue pipe or cabinet. Intact material left alone is not a hazard. It must not be cut or torn out. If we suspect it, it gets tested and handled by a certified abatement contractor before any work goes forward.
Do you give a price before the work starts?
Yes. You get a written price after the diagnosis and before any repair or replacement starts.
