The Truth About New HVAC Systems: It’s All About the Installation
Choosing a new furnace or A/C is a major investment, and the sheer number of brands can be overwhelming. But here is the secret the big sales-driven companies won't tell you: The crew installing your system is just as important as the equipment itself.
Even the highest-rated, multi-thousand-dollar unit will fail prematurely, leak, or run inefficiently if it is improperly sized or sloppily installed. At Bodnar HVAC, we don’t just "swap boxes." We engineer a comfort solution for your specific home.
Meet Ted:
Leading Our Standard for Every Installation
A Heritage of Craftsmanship
Like John, Ted doesn’t just work in HVAC—it’s in his DNA. Coming from another multi-generational family business, he understands that a heating and cooling system is only as good as the hands that install it. For over a decade, Ted has been the lead force behind Bodnar HVAC’s most complex installations.
The Gold Standard of Field Expertise
Ted isn’t a "box-swapper." He is a technician who takes personal pride in the technical integrity of every lineset, every electrical connection, and every precisely leveled unit. When Ted is on your job site, you aren’t just getting a new furnace or heat pump; you are getting a system engineered to stand the test of time.
"I treat every home like it’s my own family’s. If the installation isn't meticulous, it isn’t a Bodnar job. Our goal is to make sure the customer never has to worry about their comfort for the next 20 years." — Ted
Why Ted is an Integral Part of Our Small but Mighty Team:
A Decade of Dedicated Service: Ted has been a core pillar of Bodnar HVAC for over 10 years, ensuring consistency and quality in every project.
Multi-Generational Knowledge: His deep-rooted understanding of HVAC systems allows him to navigate the unique architectural challenges of older homes in Menlo Park and Palo Alto with ease.
Uncompromising Standards: From Atherton luxury installs to San Carlos ADU units, Ted ensures that our 60-day labor guarantee is a promise we rarely have to fulfill.
“I was impressed with their attention to detail during the installation.”

Why the "Best Equipment" Fails with a Poor Install
An improper installation can shave a decade off your system's life. As a fully licensed, insured, and EPA-certified team, we focus on:
-
We ensure your unit matches the square footage and ductwork of your home to prevent "short-cycling."
-
From brazing lines to calibrating airflow, we rely on our 20+ years of field experience—not a sales manual.
-
A Bodnar installation is designed to lower your PG&E bills and stand the test of time.
Modern Comfort Solutions: Heat Pumps, Mini-Splits & High-Efficiency Gas
The Mid-Peninsula is leading the way in electrification. Whether you are looking for a traditional high-efficiency gas furnace or are ready to transition to an eco-friendly Heat Pump or Ductless Mini-Split system, we have the expertise to guide you.
Heat Pumps: Quiet, all-electric heating and cooling.
Ductless Systems: Perfect for home offices or older homes in Mt. Carmel and Baron Park where ductwork is limited.
Hybrid Solutions: Combining the best of gas and electric for ultimate reliability.
Precision Protection in Menlo Park
At Bodnar HVAC, we don't just "drop in" units. For this Menlo Park residence, we utilized a custom-fitted, weather-resistant cover to fully encase the refrigerant, power, and communication lines. By shielding these vital components from the elements and curious critters, we ensure your high-efficiency system runs reliably for decades, not just seasons.
“The team really went above and beyond on our job. They did an excellent job with the recommendation and installation of our heat pump system. I am super happy with the work that the Bodnar team did. I only wish we had done it sooner! I highly highly recommend this company for any HVAC work you need done. Thanks guys!”
