Serving the Land of Gracious Living Since 2014
We've serviced HVAC systems in every Yorba Linda neighborhood:
Yorba Linda isn't like other Orange County cities. Incorporated in 1967 and covering 19.5 square miles in the foothills of the Santa Ana Mountains, this city of 68,000 residents takes pride in its equestrian heritage, top-rated schools, and family-focused community. From the historic Nixon Library on Yorba Linda Boulevard to the rolling fairways at Black Gold Golf Club, Yorba Linda homeowners expect quality. That's what J Martin delivers.
A few of the Yorba Linda Communities we have Served:
East Lake Village - Built around a 15-acre private lake starting in 1979, homes here range from 1,800 to 2,500 sq ft. Original HVAC systems are now 40+ years old. We frequently replace aging AC units and repair deteriorated ductwork in these homes.
Bryant Ranch - One of Yorba Linda's most established neighborhoods with homes built in the 1960s through 1980s. Many still have original R-22 refrigerant systems that need upgrading.
Travis Ranch - Popular family neighborhood near Travis Ranch Elementary. Homes here (mostly 1970s-1980s) often have undersized AC units that can't keep up with summer heat.
Kerrigan Ranch - Luxury homes on large lots with mountain views. These larger homes (4,000-7,000 sq ft) need properly sized systems and often benefit from zoned HVAC.
Hidden Hills Estates - Gated community with upscale homes. South and west-facing hillside homes get intense afternoon sun, making proper AC sizing critical.
Vista Del Verde - Nestled around Black Gold Golf Club. Homes here often have complex multi-zone systems requiring experienced technicians.
Parkside Estates - Golf community homes with immaculate landscaping. Many homeowners here rely on whole house fans to cut cooling costs.
Old Towne Yorba Linda - The historic heart of the city near shops, Hurless Barton Park, and the Yorba Linda Heritage Museum. Charming older homes that need updated HVAC.
Lomas de Yorba - Spanish-style homes near Carbon Canyon. Wildfire smoke is a real concern here during fire season.
Dominguez Ranch - Ideal for horse enthusiasts due to proximity to equestrian trails. Larger properties often need duct systems that serve multiple structures.
Why does this matter for HVAC In Yorba Linda?
A contractor who knows your neighborhood isn't guessing at what you need. That's the difference between someone who sells you something and someone who actually solves your problem.
Why Yorba Linda Homes Need Reliable HVAC
YORBA LINDA CLIMATE & HVAC CHALLENGES
Yorba Linda sits at the edge of the Santa Ana Mountains, which creates specific climate patterns that affect your heating and cooling:
Summer Heat: From June through September, Yorba Linda temperatures regularly reach the mid-to-high 80s, with August averaging 87°F and heat waves pushing above 97°F. Homes in hillside neighborhoods like Hidden Hills and Vista Del Verde bake in direct afternoon sun. If your AC can't keep up on the hottest days, it may be undersized for your home.
Mild Winters: Winter lows average 44-50°F, rarely dropping below 36°F. This makes Yorba Linda ideal for heat pump systems, which work efficiently in mild climates. Many homeowners switch from traditional furnaces to heat pumps and save 30-50% on heating costs.
Santa Ana Winds: These hot, dry winds blow through the canyons several times each year, carrying dust, pollen, and debris into your home and HVAC system. If you don't have your ducts cleaned regularly, you're breathing all of that.
Wildfire Season: Yorba Linda sits near Chino Hills State Park and Carbon Canyon. During fire season, smoke and ash affect indoor air quality for weeks. Many homeowners invest in air purification systems and high-quality filters to protect their families.
Common HVAC Problems We See in Yorba Linda:
Undersized AC systems - Many homes built in the 1970s-1980s have AC units that were adequate then but can't handle today's hotter summers. The symptom: your AC runs all day but the house never gets comfortable.
Deteriorated ductwork - After 30-40 years in attic heat (which exceeds 150°F in summer), duct insulation breaks down and joints separate. The symptom: hot and cold spots throughout the house.
R-22 refrigerant systems - R-22 (Freon) was banned in 2020. If your AC uses R-22, repairs are extremely expensive and replacement is the smarter option.
Two-story heat distribution - In Yorba Linda's many two-story homes, heat rises and the upstairs stays hot. Zoned systems or ductless mini-splits solve this.
Poor air quality - Dust from Santa Ana winds plus smoke from fire season means more homeowners are investing in whole-house air filtration.

HVAC Maintenance Yorba Linda
Regular maintenance is the cheapest way to avoid expensive repairs. Most HVAC breakdowns we see in Yorba Linda could have been prevented with annual tune-ups. A well-maintained system also runs more efficiently, lowering your energy bills and lasting years longer.
What's included in our Yorba Linda HVAC maintenance:
AC Tune-Up:
Check refrigerant levels
Clean condenser coils
Inspect and clean evaporator coils
Check electrical connections
Test capacitors and contactors
Lubricate moving parts
Check thermostat calibration
Inspect ductwork for leaks
Replace air filter
Test system performance
Heating Tune-Up:
Inspect heat exchanger for cracks
Check gas connections and pressure
Clean and adjust burners

Check safety controls
Lubricate motors and bearings
Test thermostat operation

When to schedule maintenance:
AC tune-up: Spring (March-May) before summer heat
Heating tune-up: Fall (September-November) before winter
Or schedule both in spring or fall and get it done at once
Maintenance plans: Ask about our maintenance membership. Members get priority scheduling, discounts on repairs, and two tune-ups per year at a reduced rate.
Why maintenance matters in Yorba Linda: Your AC works hard here. From June through September, it runs almost constantly during heat waves. That's a lot of wear. Systems that get annual maintenance last 15-20 years. Systems that don't often fail at 8-10 years. The math is simple.

Why Heat Pumps Make Sense in Yorba Linda: Yorba Linda's mild climate (rarely below 36°F) makes it perfect for heat pump systems. Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling from one unit, work more efficiently than gas furnaces in mild weather, and qualify for California rebates and federal tax credits. We install Carrier, Lennox, Trane, and other top brands.
Heat Pump Installation Yorba Linda
Heat pumps are the smart choice for Yorba Linda homes. Here's why:
Yorba Linda's mild climate (winter lows rarely below 36°F) is exactly where heat pumps work best. Unlike traditional systems that burn gas to create heat, heat pumps move heat from outside air into your home. In Yorba Linda's moderate temperatures, they run at peak efficiency.
Benefits of heat pumps in Yorba Linda:
One system for heating and cooling - Replaces both your furnace and AC
Lower energy bills - 30-50% more efficient than gas furnaces in mild climates
California rebates - State incentives for high-efficiency heat pumps
Federal tax credits - Up to $2,000 for qualifying heat pump installations
Better for air quality - No combustion, no gas byproducts
Quieter operation - Modern heat pumps run quieter than traditional AC units
Best heat pump candidates in Yorba Linda:
Homes with aging gas furnaces (15+ years old)
Homeowners looking to reduce energy costs
Families concerned about indoor air quality
Anyone replacing both AC and furnace at the same time
Heat pump brands we install: Carrier, Lennox, Trane, Rheem, Daikin, Mitsubishi, and other top manufacturers. We'll help you choose the right system for your home's size, layout, and your budget.
Ask about current rebates - California and federal incentives change frequently. We stay current on all available programs and help you maximize savings.
Indoor Air Quality Services Yorba Linda
Between Santa Ana winds, wildfire smoke, and 30-year-old ductwork, the air inside many Yorba Linda homes is dirtier than the air outside. J Martin provides professional duct cleaning in Yorba Linda, air purification systems, and ventilation services to keep your family breathing clean air.
Our Yorba Linda air quality services:
Professional duct cleaning
Duct repair and sealing
Complete duct replacement
Air purification and filtration systems
Humidity control
Whole-house ventilation
QuietCool whole house fan installation
Duct Problems Are Common in Yorba Linda: Most Yorba Linda homes have original ductwork that's 30-40+ years old. After decades baking in attic heat, ducts crack, joints separate, and insulation deteriorates. Signs of duct problems: rooms that are always hotter or colder, dusty air, high energy bills, or visible damage in your attic.
Attic Insulation Yorba Linda
Poor attic insulation is one of the biggest energy wasters in Yorba Linda homes. In summer, Yorba Linda attics can reach 150°F or higher. Without proper insulation, that heat radiates down into your living space, forcing your AC to work overtime. In winter, heat escapes up through the ceiling.
Signs you need more attic insulation:
High energy bills despite a newer HVAC system
Upstairs rooms much hotter than downstairs
AC runs constantly but house never feels comfortable
You can see the ceiling joists in your attic (insulation too thin)
Insulation is flat, compressed, or deteriorated
Insulation issues common in Yorba Linda: Many Yorba Linda homes built in the 1970s and 1980s have original insulation that's now 40-50 years old. It's compressed, settled, and no longer effective. Homes that meet code minimums from decades ago are severely under-insulated by today's standards.
Our attic insulation services:
Insulation inspection and assessment
Blown-in fiberglass insulation
Blown-in cellulose insulation
Batt insulation installation
Radiant barrier installation
Old insulation removal
Air sealing (stops air leaks before adding insulation)
How insulation works with your HVAC: We often find that homeowners blame their AC when the real problem is insulation. Adding insulation can reduce your cooling costs by 20-30% and make your whole house more comfortable. We'll assess both your HVAC and insulation to find the real solution.
Rebates and incentives: Southern California Edison and SoCalGas offer rebates for insulation upgrades. Ask us about current programs.
Ductless Mini-Split Installation Yorba Linda
Ductless mini-splits are perfect for Yorba Linda homes that need flexible cooling and heating without major construction. These systems have an outdoor compressor and one or more indoor units mounted on walls, delivering conditioned air directly where you need it.
When mini-splits make sense in Yorba Linda:
Room additions - Added a bedroom, office, or ADU? Mini-splits cool and heat without extending ductwork.
Garage conversions - Many Yorba Linda homeowners convert garages to home offices or gyms. Mini-splits are the easiest way to climate control these spaces.
Hot rooms - That upstairs bedroom that's always 10 degrees hotter? A mini-split solves it without replacing your whole system.
Homes without ductwork - Older Yorba Linda homes (especially near Old Towne) sometimes lack central duct systems.
Zoned comfort - Want different temperatures in different rooms? Multi-zone mini-splits let each room have its own thermostat.
Benefits of ductless mini-splits:
No ductwork needed (saves thousands in installation)
Individual room temperature control
Highly efficient (up to 30 SEER ratings)
Quiet operation
Sleek wall-mounted design
Both heating and cooling in one unit
Mini-split brands we install: Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, LG, Carrier, and other top manufacturers. Single-zone and multi-zone configurations available.
Whole House Fan Installation Yorba Linda
Whole house fans are extremely popular in Yorba Linda and for good reason. On summer evenings when temperatures drop below 75°F, a whole house fan pulls cool outside air through your home and pushes hot air out through the attic. Many Yorba Linda homeowners use whole house fans instead of AC for 6-8 months per year, cutting cooling costs by 50-90%.
J Martin is a certified QuietCool whole house fan installer in Yorba Linda. The new QuietCool models are dramatically quieter than older whole house fans (which sounded like helicopters) and can cool your entire home in 3-4 minutes.
Why Yorba Linda is Perfect for Whole House Fans:
Summer evening temperatures drop into the 60s and low 70s
Low humidity means cool nights year-round
Large homes benefit from multiple fan units
ROI is typically 2-3 years through AC savings

Couldn't have asked for a better experience
"Had our A/C replaced along with the ducting, and new insulation. We even went with a single system that was zoned (2) to save on power a bit (why have the A/C on upstairs when you're downstairs, and vice versa). They did a fantastic job for an extremely fair price and to top it off they were professional, clean and courteous. Couldn't have asked for a better experience, so if you're looking for any A/C work to be done I couldn't think of a better company to call."

His crew was prompt, respectful, and professional throughout both demo and installation, making a challenging investment in a new HVAC system feel worthwhile.

We are grateful for their leadership in the industry!
“J Martin just completed a two-day installation of a 4-ton heat pump system with all new ducting. This was the second time I have worked with J Martin; they installed a heat pump in another property for us two years ago.
As with the previous job, our J Martin experience was exceptional. If you are in the Southern California area and require HVAC work, J Martin is worth speaking to. We are grateful for their leadership in the industry!”

-
General rule: if your AC is under 10 years old and repair costs are less than 50% of replacement cost, repair usually makes sense. If your system uses R-22 refrigerant (phased out in 2020), is over 15 years old, or needs frequent repairs, replacement is often more cost-effective. We'll give you honest advice based on your specific situation.
-
We recommend annual HVAC maintenance for Yorba Linda homes. Ideally, service your AC in spring before summer heat arrives, and your heating system in fall. Regular maintenance prevents breakdowns, extends system life, lowers energy bills, and keeps your warranty valid.
-
J Martin installs and services all major HVAC brands including Carrier, Lennox, Trane, Goodman, American Standard and others. We're also certified QuietCool whole house fan installers.
-
Yes. Every J Martin technician is fully licensed, bonded, insured, and background-checked. CA Contractor License #998956.
-
Yes. We offer financing options for AC replacement and new HVAC installations. Ask about current promotions and rebates, including California energy efficiency incentives and federal tax credits for heat pumps.
-
Absolutely. Yorba Linda's mild climate (winter lows rarely below 36°F) is ideal for heat pumps. They work as both heater and AC, run 30-50% more efficiently than gas furnaces in our climate, and qualify for California rebates plus federal tax credits up to $2,000. For most Yorba Linda homes, a heat pump is the smartest long-term investment.
-
A single-zone ductless mini-split installation in Yorba Linda typically runs $3,000-$5,000 depending on the brand and capacity. Multi-zone systems (2-4 indoor units) range from $5,000-$12,000. Mini-splits are often cheaper than extending ductwork to room additions or converted garages.
-
Consider a mini-split when you have a room addition, converted garage, ADU, or a room that's always too hot or cold. Mini-splits are also ideal for older Yorba Linda homes without existing ductwork, or when you want zone control without replacing your whole system.
-
Most Yorba Linda homes built before 2000 are under-insulated by today's standards. If your upstairs is always hotter than downstairs, your AC runs constantly, or you can see ceiling joists in your attic, you likely need more insulation. We offer free insulation assessments.
-
Yorba Linda's climate is ideal for whole house fans. Summer evenings cool down into the 60s and 70s, and low humidity means comfortable nights year-round. A whole house fan pulls that cool air through your home in minutes, letting you turn off the AC. Many Yorba Linda homeowners save 50-90% on cooling costs by using whole house fans 6-8 months per year.
