Our weather is moderate in San Diego and you could benefit from using a whole house fan to reduce your needs for air conditioning. Whole house fans keep your home cool through the usage of a powerful suction that pulls indoor warm air out, replacing that stale warm air with cooler outside air. Whole house fans can be manually turned on or programmed to run on a schedule. In order to achieve the desired results, windows for the home need to be open. The ideal time to run your whole house fan is when outside temperatures drop below inside temperatures. The fan will evacuate the warm air inside your home and exhaust it through the roof vents, while drawing in cooler outside air into the home through open windows.
Design Options
The simplest design option for whole-house fans are ceiling-mounted variations. These types of fans are installed in the attic between the ceiling and living space. These fans are the least expensive however they can be noisy and create vibrations. Ducted whole-house fans run much quieter than ceiling-mounted fans. With ducted whole-house fans, the ductwork will vent the inside warm air directly out of the home, rather than through attic vents likes the ceiling-mounted variation.
With whole house fans you also have variable speeds that allow you to control the speed of inside warm air being expelled from the home. You can adjust it to high speed to flush air out quickly or low speed to allow for a continuous, gentle air flow. Programmable thermostats and temperature controllers add to the convenience by automating the whole-house fan.

We packed all of the luxuries of a larger home into this compact urban apartment renovation. From the spaceous kitchen/living room to the sophisticated bathroom, this small home has it all. We removed walls to open up the kitchen into the large living and dining room, perfect for entertaining. The kitchen includes full size stainless steel appliances, porcelain floor tile, quartz countertops, a glass tile mosaic backsplash, and custom Shaker style island and cabinets in a white satin finish. Midway through the project we decided to install a new through the wall integrated heating and air-conditioning (PTAC) system incorporating the building steam system, which required building and architectural approval. By removing the window air conditioners, we completely improved the light and aesthetic. Tapping into the building's steam heat system also saves money. For another budget saver, we dressed up its factory metal cover by wrapping the baseboard around it.

Designed by renowned architect Edward Rutherfoord, this exceptional Hampstead residence underwent a complete transformation to create a contemporary family home that seamlessly combines architectural elegance with modern luxury.
The project included a double-storey rear extension, a new top-floor extension, and a full refurbishment of the existing property. Working closely with the architect and project team, JK Design & Build delivered every stage of the construction process, from demolition and structural engineering through to the finest interior finishes.
Inside, the home has been completely reimagined with bespoke joinery, a designer kitchen, luxury bathrooms, engineered timber flooring, feature staircases with glass balustrades, and carefully selected lighting throughout. Modern building services, including air conditioning, a high-efficiency heat pump, and integrated fire sprinkler systems, provide year-round comfort while maintaining the highest standards of performance.
The exterior was equally transformed with professionally landscaped gardens, a new driveway, elegant paved terraces, bespoke metal entrance gates, and glazed privacy screens, creating beautiful outdoor spaces for both relaxing and entertaining.
This project demonstrates our commitment to delivering exceptional craftsmanship, meticulous attention to detail, and fully managed construction services for luxury residential properties across London.

Yes, this is our little Gerken! “As a homeowner in SW Minneapolis, I completely understand being afraid of getting ripped off, lied to, or taken advantage of because ‘HVAC‘* is overwhelming because I felt the same way.” – John, owner
I believed there should be a heating and cooling service company I could trust. A company that really did care about giving me what was best for my family. A company that would do everything humanly possible in providing outstanding service for me.
So my wife and I created a heating & cooling company to provide honest, trustworthy service, the way we would want to be treated.

This bathroom previously had an air-conditioning condensing unit installed right over the bathtub, making it unusable. When we removed the air-conditioning unit, we actually found an old window opening. We were able to install a new window to make it bright and beautiful with cozy under tile floor heating and amazing cabinetry.

This outstanding residential project showcases the complete transformation of a detached family home into a contemporary luxury residence, delivered by JK Design & Build.
Following the demolition of the original property, only the front façade was retained, allowing us to preserve the character of the home while completely rebuilding it from the ground up. The result is a beautifully designed three-storey family residence that combines modern architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and luxury living.
The project included the construction of new side and rear extensions, a first-floor extension, and a spacious loft conversion, significantly increasing both the living space and the property's value.
Every aspect of the home was carefully considered, from the structural engineering and bespoke joinery to the premium interior finishes. Luxury features include a bespoke designer kitchen, elegant bathrooms, engineered oak flooring, designer lighting, a private cinema room with a bespoke bar, a fully equipped gym, a billiards room, a home office, and two guest suites within the newly created loft.
The home also benefits from modern building technologies, including underfloor heating throughout the ground and first floors, air conditioning, an energy-efficient heat pump, and high-performance insulation to maximise comfort and energy efficiency.
Externally, the property was transformed with professionally designed landscaping, a new driveway, and an elegant outdoor entertaining area featuring a bespoke BBQ terrace with integrated heating.
This project reflects our commitment to delivering exceptional quality, innovative construction solutions, and fully managed luxury residential projects across London.
