Rob from Efficiency Heating and Cooling provided an estimate for replacing our furnace and AC. The estimate was competitive and reasonable for the job. He did an excellent job explaining options and didn’t try to upsell us. His communication was excellent, texting arrival time and asked if that time would still work. Communication with the office was also excellent from scheduling to follow up. Overall so far excellent customer service.
Trae was very helpful and professional. I will definitely use Efficiency Heating and Cooling again.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Jerry, for your exceptional feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Trae provided you with helpful and professional service. We look forward to assisting you again with your heating and cooling needs.
I had a great experience working with Efficiency - they were recommended to me by my real estate agent! Had routine furnace/AC maintenance with Jim, who did a fantastic job and discovered a leak in my furnace. He promptly got me scheduled for a quote visit with Jason. He is super friendly and answered all my questions about furnaces - Jason got me a great quote on a new furnace! Kellen and his team did an excellent job installing it. Overall a great experience and I look forward to seeing them again for my next HVAC maintenance!

CLIMATE & HEATING NEEDS in Marylhurst

  • Cool, damp winters with morning fog/inversions make homes feel colder than the thermostat reads.

  • Summer highs plus lakeside humidity raise cooling loads along Willamette Dr and tree-canopy streets.

  • Two-story and open-plan homes benefit from variable-speed heat and zoning for even room temps.

PROPERTY & MAINTENANCE CHALLENGES in Marylhurst

  • Cottonwood fluff and spring pollen from creek corridors clog filters and outdoor coils—pre-season cleaning is key.

  • Mid-century crawlspace ducts and additions cause hot/cold rooms without sealing and balancing.

  • Quiet neighborhoods favor low-noise equipment and careful condenser placement; ductless is ideal for offices/guest suites.

More Information

How the Willamette river corridor changes the HVAC playbook in Marylhurst

Marylhurst sits along Willamette Dr (OR-43) between Lake Oswego and West Linn, where morning fog, river inversions, and dense tree canopy make winters feel damper and summers stickier than nearby hills. Mid-century crawlspace ducts can leak heat, while newer remodels near Kruse Way are tight enough to need balanced ventilation. We right-size equipment, verify airflow/static pressure, and match filtration/ventilation to your home so comfort stays steady without wasting energy.

Homes we most often service around Marylhurst

  • River-level cottages and townhomes off Willamette Dr near Mary S. Young Park and George Rogers Park.
  • 1950s–1970s ranches/splits with original crawlspace ductwork in Lake Grove & Forest Highlands.
  • Two-story homes in Westlake, Palisades, and Uplands that benefit from zoning and low-noise, variable-speed equipment.

Furnace repair in Marylhurst — steady heat on foggy winter mornings

Early clues to fix before it becomes a no-heat call

  • Short cycling or long run times after damp, near-freezing nights.
  • Back rooms never reaching setpoint (usually a balance or leakage issue).
  • Musty/burning odors on first start-up from dust and moisture on heat exchangers.

When heat isn’t right, we start with combustion safety, CO, draft, and static-pressure tests to find root causes—then recommend the least-disruptive correction.

Air conditioning repair in Marylhurst — quiet cooling near the river

Central vs. ductless—match the system to your rooms

Variable-speed central AC excels in larger layouts and dehumidification; ductless shines in lake-level offices, studios, and additions where zoning and sound matter. If cooling drops on muggy afternoons or after cottonwood season, book quick diagnostics for AC.

Planning ahead? Compare options and plan a new central or ductless install sized to your rooms, noise goals, and budget.

AC maintenance timed to cottonwood and humidity

Schedule spring service before fluff hits coils. We check airflow, drain performance, and cabinet sealing so humidity control stays on point through July/August heat.

Heat pump installation in Marylhurst — efficient, low-noise comfort

Cold-climate heat pumps hold output on chilly mornings and deliver even, quiet heat—no “blast furnace” feel. Dual-fuel pairs with an existing gas line for rare deep-cold spells. Considering a switch? Start with a modern heat pump setup.

Keep performance sharp year-round

Protect efficiency and comfort with a seasonal check for heat pumps—we verify defrost logic, charge, airflow, and condensate management.

Air quality & ductwork for pollen, river humidity, and smoke

Small upgrades that make a big difference

  • MERV 11–13 media filtration (properly sealed) to capture cottonwood, maple/fir pollen, and wildfire particulates.
  • Sealed return drops and duct balancing to eliminate dusty drafts and hot/cold rooms.
  • Fresh-air/ERV strategies with humidity control for tight remodels near Kruse Way and Foothills.

If allergies or dust are constant, start with duct cleaning for allergies; we’ll pair it with the right filter and airflow tweaks for your space.

Light-commercial care along OR-43

Studios and professional offices on Willamette Dr need predictable comfort and low downtime. We provide planned maintenance, rapid diagnostics, and replacements scheduled around your hours—with clean documentation for owners and managers.
