Why Santa Monica homes need indoor air quality
The marine layer holds Santa Monica cool through much of the year, so peak cooling loads are short and modest and modulating equipment avoids the short cycling that plagues oversized systems here. Salt air is the dominant maintenance factor, corroding uncoated coils and cabinet hardware faster than anything else on the Westside. A visit here usually opens with wildfire smoke hepa filtration, uv air purification, and whole-home ventilation, so the scope matches what the system, the equipment, and the property actually need before any work starts.
