Permitting in Fremont

Every AHJ has its own rules for where equipment can sit and how loud it can be. We pull the permit, meet Fremont's requirements, and handle the inspection — here's what the local code actually says.

3ft

Property-line setback

View Fremont's ordinance

Alameda County jurisdictions require a dedicated GFCI-protected breaker for the outdoor condenser. We size and install this as part of the electrical scope so your project passes inspection the first time.

Local inspectors expect the refrigerant line set to be painted to match your home's exterior. Painting the line set is the homeowner's responsibility after install — we leave it clean and paint-ready.

What Bay Area homeowners say

Quieter than I expected

Electric Air replaced an old gas furnace with a heat pump. Found good placement for the heat pump and rearranged the ducting to significantly reduce the footprint. Roman and Michael did a great job, neat and tidy.

Jean-Louis Excoffier

These guys are commercial grade crew!

My wife handles hundreds of thousands of square feet for work, and her comment about electric air was, "These guys are commercial grade crew; professional, courteous, clean, quick and efficient." I can't think of higher praise!

Brett Gentry

The team is fantastic!

The team is fantastic, from Jeremy and the informational/sales side of the house to the install crew, especially Johntae. I felt very informed at every step, equipment choices to install steps.
