Third-Generation · Family-Owned
Wally Falke’s Heating & Air Conditioning is a third-generation, family-owned HVAC company that has served Manteca and the surrounding San Joaquin County communities since 1969, from our shop in Turlock, 31 miles south on Highway 99.

Cooling · 24/7 Emergency Response
Wally Falke’s repairs all makes and models of air conditioners in Manteca, CA, with a real person answering 24/7. In the two-story tract homes that make up so much of the city, the first sign of trouble is often an upstairs that never keeps up on a hot afternoon, and that can be the AC or the ductwork, so we start with a full diagnostic, not a guess. We quote the price before work begins, and most Manteca repairs finish the same visit.
The “$5,000 Rule”: Multiply the unit’s age by the repair cost, and past $5,000, replacement usually deserves a look. We’ll always provide an honest assessment after diagnostic work.

Cooling · Installation & Replacement
Wally Falke’s installs and replaces air conditioners throughout Manteca, with free in-home estimates and financing. Roughly 44% of Manteca homes were built since 2000, and the builder-grade units from that subdivision boom are now hitting first-replacement age. We size every system to your actual house with a Title 24 Manual J load calculation, and we install York, backed by a 10-year parts and labor warranty.
Heating · 24/7 No-Heat Calls
Wally Falke’s repairs furnaces and heaters across Manteca, CA, with no-heat calls answered 24/7. Manteca gets a real cold season by valley standards, frost from December into February, and the cold-snap call is a unit that won’t ignite, blows cold air, or trips off after a few minutes. Carbon monoxide and gas leak testing come standard on every heater repair, whatever the brand or age.

Heating · Installation & Replacement
Wally Falke’s installs and replaces furnaces and heating systems in Manteca, CA, with free in-home estimates and financing. Because both your gas and your electricity come through PG&E here, a dual-fuel setup (a heat pump paired with a gas furnace) is worth a look at replacement time: it leans on whichever fuel is heating the home more cheaply. We walk you through the honest options, and our C20 and C10 licenses keep any panel work with one crew.
Wally Falke’s provides seasonal AC tune-ups and furnace maintenance across Manteca, most often through our VIP Maintenance Plan: two scheduled visits a year, priority scheduling, and exclusive discounted repair pricing. One visit readies your cooling before the summer heat, the other readies your furnace before the first frost.
A neglected system tends to fail at the worst possible time, the hottest week of July or the first hard cold snap in January. A twice-a-year visit catches the small stuff before it becomes the emergency call.

Year-Round · Repair, Service, Install & Replace
Wally Falke’s services, repairs, installs, and replaces heat pumps in Manteca, CA. Plenty of Manteca homes already run one, and most of our heat-pump calls here are service and repair rather than sales: we work on every configuration, ducted central, ductless mini-split, and dual-fuel, whatever brand the builder put in. Heat pumps run year-round, so they can fail in any season and earn maintenance twice a year.
Everything heat pumps, from repairs to rebates: Heat Pumps →
That sets Manteca apart from Modesto and much of Stanislaus County, where homes buy electricity from an irrigation district. It matters for your equipment, because PG&E’s electric rates are among the highest in California, so a high-efficiency AC or heat pump pays for itself faster here than in most of the state.
The South San Joaquin Irrigation District has spent years trying to become Manteca’s retail electric provider to lower rates. As of 2026 that effort is still working through the courts, and PG&E remains your provider today. Today’s rebates come through PG&E and statewide programs like TECH Clean California and California’s Home Energy Rebates; we’ll tell you which ones your equipment qualifies for.
Lathrop, French Camp, and the surrounding San Joaquin County areas are all inside our regular Manteca coverage; nearby Ripon has its own page.

Beyond the Big Six
Usually same-day for emergencies. Our Turlock shop is about 35 minutes down Highway 99, and a real person answers 24/7, year-round, with no-cool and no-heat calls prioritized. Call (209) 632-7596 anytime.
No. Most central ACs last 15 to 20 years, so a 7-year-old unit is mid-life and usually worth repairing. Replacement enters the conversation past 12 to 15 years, or when the $5,000 rule (age times repair cost) flips.
Usually, yes, and the payback is faster in Manteca than most places because of PG&E’s rates (see the utility note above). We’ll show you the honest math in a free estimate and file the PG&E or statewide rebate paperwork.
Yes, light-commercial work for Manteca’s storefronts, offices, and small businesses alongside our residential service, on the same 24/7 answered phone.
After the AC shuts off, give it about three minutes before restarting so the refrigerant pressure can equalize. A system that restarts constantly is short-cycling, which usually means an electrical, sizing, or refrigerant problem worth a diagnostic.
It depends on the failed part; most no-cool and no-heat calls come down to common parts we stock on the truck. We quote the full price before work starts, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
Usually, yes. No-heat visits are prioritized 24/7 through the winter, and our technicians carry the common failure parts, so many Manteca furnace repairs finish the same visit.
Our shop is in Turlock, run by the Falke family since 1969. Around Manteca we cover Lathrop, French Camp, and the surrounding San Joaquin County communities; nearby Ripon has its own page.
