Questions and Answers

How can Scurfield Solar & Heating help with low water pressure or water heater issues common in Arcata?

We frequently address the hard water and sediment buildup that can affect Arcata's plumbing systems. For low water pressure, we conduct thorough plumbing inspections to identify the cause, which is often mineral deposits in pipes or fixtures. For water heaters, we perform maintenance flushes to remove sediment, which restores efficiency and extends the unit's life. If a replacement is needed, we install high-efficiency water heaters suited to our local water conditions, ensuring you have reliable hot water and lower energy use.

What does 'whole home system integration' mean for my solar and HVAC installation?

It means we don't just install components in isolation. We assess your entire home—from insulation and electrical load to your hot water and heating needs—to design a system where solar, HVAC, and plumbing work together efficiently. For example, we might recommend a heat pump water heater that pairs well with your solar array, or optimize your HVAC sizing based on your home's solar gain. This integrated approach maximizes your energy savings, increases comfort, and moves you closer to a net-zero home, which is a key design goal for us here in Humboldt County.

Do you provide maintenance for both the solar and HVAC systems you install?

Yes, absolutely. We provide maintenance for the life of any system we install, a commitment that started with our founder, Ben. For solar, this includes panel cleaning—especially important for our coastal climate—and system performance checks. For HVAC, we offer tune-ups and repairs to keep your heating and cooling running efficiently. This ongoing care ensures your investment performs as intended for years, protects your warranty, and helps us catch small issues before they become major problems, keeping your energy bills low.
