Residential HVAC Repair in Redwood City
We prioritize expert repairs over sales commissions.
Meet John:
Your Dedicated Repair Expert
Repairing a complex HVAC system is an art form that requires more than just a toolkit—it requires a legacy of knowledge. As a 3rd-generation technician with over two decades of hands-on experience, I personally handle our repair services to ensure every diagnostic is accurate and every fix is permanent.
Expertise Over Sales: I lead with a "Repair-First" mentality. If your system can be safely and efficiently fixed, that will always be my first recommendation.
Accurate Diagnostics: I specialize in the chronic issues others miss, from complex electrical faults to refrigerant flow problems.
Mid-Peninsula Roots: I understand the specific mechanical needs of homes across:
Redwood City: Including Emerald Hills and Mt. Carmel.
San Carlos: Serving White Oaks and Clearfield Park.
Palo Alto: Expert repairs for Baron Park and Midtown residences.
“It’s hard to find an HVAC company you can truly trust, but Bodnar is one of them.”

The "Expert-First" Repair Approach
When your heating or cooling stops working, it’s more than an inconvenience—it can be a safety risk for families with respiratory needs or temperature sensitivities. At Bodnar HVAC, we don’t believe in "panic-selling" a replacement when a skilled repair is possible.
As an EPA-certified and BBB-accredited contractor, we adhere to strict environmental and ethical standards. While many companies focus on sales quotas, our focus remains on the technical integrity of your system. Whether it’s a failed capacitor in a 20-year-old AC or a complex furnace ignition issue, we bring third-generation diagnostic skills to every service call.
“John Bodnar did a great job fixing our furnace. He quickly diagnosed the problem and had a replacement part available within hours. He is clearly an expert in his field.”

Repair FAQs
How do I know if my system needs a repair or a full replacement?
1
We follow a "Repair-First" philosophy, meaning we lead with skill rather than sales pitches. Generally, if your system is less than 12–15 years old and the repair is safe and cost-effective, we recommend fixing it. If you’ve been told a replacement is your only option, we offer a FREE second opinion to see if John—a 3rd-generation specialist—can find a way to fix it instead.
Do you charge for repair estimates?
2
While we provide free estimates for equipment replacements, our repair diagnostics are a billable service. This allows us to remain 100% objective, because we don't work on commission, we have no incentive to "find" problems that don't exist. You are paying for over 20 years of expert field experience to get the straight truth about your system.
What kind of warranty do you offer on repairs?
3
We stand behind our workmanship with a 60-day labor warranty on every repair. If the same issue returns within that window, we will return to make it right at no additional labor cost to you. This is backed by our status as a fully licensed, insured, and BBB-accredited family business.
Why should I choose Bodnar HVAC over a larger company?
4
Most large companies train their technicians to be sales reps who push expensive replacements. At Bodnar HVAC, you get a small, expert team where the owner, John, personally handles the repairs. We are 3rd-generation technicians who treat our clients like neighbors in Redwood City, San Carlos, and Palo Alto.
