Heating & Furnace Services in Whittier, CA
Licensed heating pros serving Whittier and the surrounding Gateway Cities area — 24/7, with same-day appointments.
Whittier homeowners have called Power Pro first for 20+ years — for everything from middle-of-the-night emergencies to planned upgrades. Your service is dispatched from our Cerritos office, so a licensed, background-checked technician is genuinely nearby, not "in your area" in name only.
The Gateway Cities are classic 1950s tract-home territory along the 605, 91, and 710, where slab-on-grade foundations make slab leaks a signature local problem. Original galvanized supply pipe and cast-iron drains from that era are now 60-plus years old. Imported water in much of the area is hard, so water heaters scale up quickly without regular flushing.
Every visit starts the same way: we diagnose, explain your options in plain language, and put exact pricing in writing before any work begins. We back it with a price match guarantee and a 100% satisfaction guarantee — and 1,400+ Google reviews across Los Angeles & Orange County keep us honest.
Whittier facts that shape heating & furnace work
Gas utility & rebates

Electric utility & rebates
If you are weighing a heat pump against a new Whittier furnace, your electric utility is Southern California Edison (SCE). Choosing a heat pump instead of a furnace in SCE territory brings SCE's $300+/ton instant discount on a central heat pump, applied at purchase through participating distributors (SCE lists it as limited-time).

Housing age
Whittier's housing stock has a median year built of 1956, with 88.5% of its 29,734 units (about 26,310) built before 1980, per the Census ACS 2020–2024 estimates. In a 70-year-old home the furnace has likely been replaced at least once, but ductwork and flue venting are often original, so on a Whittier furnace call we inspect both before recommending a replacement.
