LOCAL DETAILS THAT MATTERBerkeley homes,
Berkeley homes,
flats to hills.
Much of Berkeley was built before modern heating and electrical loads, and the hills add fire-zone and outage concerns. HAXX plans each job around the house and its location.
01
Housing stock
Elmwood grew after the 1906 earthquake with Brown Shingle, Arts and Crafts and Colonial Revival homes. Parts of North Berkeley burned in 1923 and were rebuilt, often in stucco.
02
Panels and wiring
Small services and knob-and-tube wiring are common. Berkeley requires an electrician's safety report before insulating over knob-and-tube, and its BESO rules credit panel upgrades and rewiring.
03
Utility and incentives
Ava Community Energy supplies most Berkeley homes, with PG&E delivering power. Ava's Incentive Finder and the city's electrification page list current programs; confirm terms before you sign.

GOOD TO KNOW
Berkeley questions, answered.
Does a heat pump work in an older Berkeley house?
Yes. Homes with usable ducts can take a ducted unit; houses without ducts often suit ductless or slim-ducted systems. HAXX checks ducts and insulation first.
Who supplies electricity in Berkeley, and are there rebates?
Ava Community Energy is Berkeley's default power supplier, with PG&E delivering and billing. Ava customers remain eligible for PG&E programs. Use Ava's Incentive Finder and confirm current terms.
Can my panel handle an EV charger?
Often. A load calculation shows spare capacity. If it is tight, load management or a panel upgrade solves it, and both count toward BESO when permitted.
Do I need a permit in Berkeley?
Most HVAC and electrical jobs need one. HAXX applies through the city's Permits Online portal and meets the inspector. For BESO credit, the permit scope should say 'for BESO compliance'.
