Stanford’s faculty and staff neighborhoods sit on university land next to Palo Alto, and many residents think of them as part of town. For HVAC projects, they’re not. Stanford is unincorporated Santa Clara County, and changes to campus homes can involve the university’s own review alongside county requirements. Homes range widely in age and style, from historic houses to contemporary builds.

What Stanford homes ask us for most
Planning HVAC work on campus
- Review first. Exterior changes, including new outdoor units, may need review by the university as well as a county permit. We help you gather equipment specifications, placement plans and noise ratings early.
- Different incentives. Campus homes aren’t City of Palo Alto Utilities customers, so CPAU rebates don’t apply. We help you identify incentives that do.
- Varied housing stock. Older campus homes may have aging furnaces and duct systems in crawlspaces. Newer homes often have high-efficiency equipment that needs proper maintenance.
- Home offices. Many residents work from home, so a hot or cold office is worth fixing with a dedicated ductless zone.
