Heating and cooling in Vallejo
Replacing only a furnace, an A/C condenser or both is a $454.00 flat permit in Vallejo's Master Fee Schedule for fiscal year 2026-2027. Add duct work and the residential row becomes $700.00, plan check included. Ducts alone also cost $454.00. So is a wall furnace or wall heater on its own, and the schedule marks those three $454.00 items with a Subsidy Program footnote. Its amounts already include the 12 percent surcharge where that applies.
Vallejo issues permits through eTRAKiT, its online system, and new users register before applying. Inspections go first come, first served. The Building Division doesn't promise next-day visits and suggests booking at least three business days ahead, either in the permit system or on the voice response line, (707) 648-4384. The Central Permit Center counter is at 555 Santa Clara Street. PG&E provides the gas and electricity at Vallejo's reference point, while the City of Pittsburg's power utility territory also touches the boundary, so a home near that edge may have another electric provider.
No PG&E furnace rebate is listed. That's the rebates page as read October 20, 2026, which also had nothing for central air or heat pumps in homes. By the 2020 to 2024 census figures, Vallejo's median home dates to 1975.

Permits for heating and cooling work in Vallejo
Under the California Mechanical Code, replacing a furnace, air handler, coil or condenser needs a building permit, and so does adding ducting, as the Contractors State License Board (CSLB) told C-20 contractors in a 2010 letter. Code details vary by city and county, so ask the building department for your address what it needs.
