Based in Oak Park, California, Galaxy Plumbing, Heating, AC & Solar is a locally owned and operated plumbing and HVAC company that was founded in 1986. Our team works on furnaces and heat pumps of every brand, handling repairs, installations, tune-ups, and around-the-clock emergency help whenever the cold catches you off guard. Licensed in plumbing, HVAC, and solar, we bring dependable, careful work to every heating job, big or small.


The problem tends to show up at the worst possible moment. You bump up the thermostat, wait for that familiar rush of warm air, and instead you get cold air, weird noises, or nothing at all. A broken furnace has plenty of ways of letting you know something's wrong, from short cycling on and off to a burning smell or rooms that just won't warm up, no matter how high you crank it.
There's usually a clear reason behind it once you know where to look. A clogged filter chokes off airflow and makes the system work overtime, a faulty igniter or flame sensor can keep the burners from lighting, and worn blower motors or bad capacitors leave you with a unit that hums but won't heat. Sometimes it comes down to a cracked heat exchanger or a thermostat that's simply gone bad, and a dirty, neglected system that hasn't had heating maintenance in years is far more likely to break down when you need it most.
Getting it sorted starts with figuring out what's actually failing. Our team runs a thorough diagnostic, checking the igniter, sensors, airflow, and electrical components before doing anything else, because a good furnace repair service depends on finding the real culprit rather than guessing. Once we know what's going on, we walk you through the fix in plain language, whether that means a simple part swap, a deeper cleaning, or, in some cases, a discussion of furnace replacement if the unit is old enough that repairs no longer make sense. As your local heating contractor, we make sure you understand your options before any work begins.
The result is a home that warms up quickly and stays warm, without the worry of another surprise breakdown. Staying on top of small issues keeps your system running efficiently, trims your energy bills, and adds years to the life of your furnace or heat pump. That's exactly what a dependable heating company should deliver, and it's what we aim for on every visit.
Our team services residential and commercial heating equipment with practical solutions based on the system’s condition, age, and daily workload.

For a larger job like a new furnace, just ask us about the financing options we offer to ease the cost.
Solid training backs our team, including recognition as A. O. Smith Water Heater Specialists, Certified Navien Tankless Water Heater Installers, EPA-certified, ESCO Institute-trained, and NEST technicians.
Backing our work matters to us, so every heating job comes with a one-year full labor and parts warranty.
Hidden moisture and stray gas rarely announce themselves until the damage is already piling up. We stay on top of slab, pipe, and gas leaks year-round, using detection that finds the trouble spot quickly and repairs that hold up and meet code. Once the fix is in, you can stop second-guessing that faint drip or odd smell for good.
A cold rinse when you were counting on steam is enough to sour anyone's mood. Our water heater services run the gamut from repairs and sediment flushes to full tankless upgrades, and thanks to our Navien certification and A. O. Smith background, we're right at home with these units.
Out of sight doesn't mean out of mind once a sewer line starts acting up. Sewer, drain, and repiping is a big part of what we do, whether we're snaking out a blocked main, handling trenchless replacement, or repiping a home whose pipes have simply run their course.
Coaxing an aging air conditioner through one more heat wave usually ends in frustration. Our AC installation and replacement service relies on EPA-certified, ESCO-trained techs who properly size the system, remove the old unit, and install a cooling system that keeps your bills reasonable.
Weird noises and rooms that never quite cool down are your AC hinting that it needs a hand. Our AC repair and maintenance covers frozen coils, worn capacitors, sluggish fan motors, and clogged drain lines, plus routine checkups that catch small problems early.
Much of how your home feels depends on air quietly circulating through the ducts. With our indoor air quality and duct services, we clean and replace ductwork, install purifiers and improved filtration, and can even set up app-enabled roof sprinkler systems for peace of mind.
A power bill that keeps inching upward is a pretty convincing reason to look skyward. Our solar services include installing, repairing, and replacing panels for homes and businesses, as well as pool panels, Tesla Powerwall storage, and backup power when the grid stalls.
A properly selected and installed heat pump can heat an Oak Park home while also providing cooling during warmer months. The U.S. Department of Energy describes heat pumps as an efficient option for all climates, but the contractor still needs to size the system for the home.
Schedule professional heating maintenance at least once a year, ideally before you expect to use the system regularly. A yearly heating services visit can cover filters, controls, electrical parts, burners, airflow, ducts, and other components that affect comfort and operation.
A furnace breakdown becomes an emergency when you smell gas, hear a carbon monoxide alarm, see smoke or sparking, or suspect the equipment poses an immediate safety risk. Leave the property and contact emergency services if a carbon monoxide alarm sounds or a gas leak is suspected.
Repair may make sense when the furnace remains dependable and needs a limited, reasonably priced fix. Consider replacement when the system has become inefficient, breaks down repeatedly, has obsolete parts, or requires repairs that would cost a large portion of a new system's price.
Cold air can come from an incorrect thermostat setting, a clogged filter, ignition trouble, a dirty flame sensor, restricted airflow, or a system that has overheated and shut down the burners. Check the thermostat and filter first, then have a heating contractor diagnose the equipment if the problem continues.
