Frequently Asked Questions
Does Glendale have its own utility rebates for HVAC equipment?
Yes — Glendale Water and Power (GWP) operates independently from LADWP and offers its own rebate programs for high-efficiency heat pumps, furnaces, and smart thermostats. The qualifying equipment lists and rebate amounts differ from LADWP programs. We track GWP incentives and ensure the equipment we install qualifies for maximum rebates.
Can you convert a Glendale hillside home from radiator heat to central HVAC?
We've done dozens of these conversions in Adams Hill and Rossmoyne, where many 1920s–1940s homes still have hot-water radiator or steam systems with a boiler. We remove the old boiler, cap the radiator piping, and install a modern furnace-and-AC combo with new ductwork routed through the attic. The old radiator alcoves can usually be reclaimed as closet or shelf space.
How long does an HVAC permit take in the City of Glendale?
Glendale's building department typically processes mechanical permits within 1–3 business days for straightforward like-for-like replacements. New installations or system upgrades that change fuel type or capacity may require plan check, which adds 5–10 business days. We submit permits electronically through Glendale's online portal and schedule inspections as part of every job.
