Panorama City was built starting in 1948 as one of the Valley’s first fully planned post-war communities, developed by Fritz Burns with industrialist Henry J. Kaiser to house workers from nearby factories. Today it’s a busy, dense neighborhood around the Kaiser Permanente medical center, Panorama Mall and The Plant shopping center, which sits on the site of the old General Motors plant. We connect Panorama City homeowners and landlords with independent, licensed HVAC contractors.
Original 1950s Homes
Many of Panorama City’s original tract homes still have features from the late 1940s and 1950s: small attics, little or no ductwork, and floor or wall furnaces instead of central heating. Adding central air to these homes can mean new ducts, so ductless mini-splits and heat pumps are often a simpler way to add cooling and replace an old furnace at the same time. See our mini-split page.
Older homes may also have small electrical panels. If you are adding AC for the first time, ask the contractor to check whether your panel can handle it.
Apartments and Tenant Calls
Panorama City has a large number of apartment buildings, which often use wall units, packaged units or individual split systems. When a tenant calls in a heat wave, fast service matters. We connect landlords and property managers with licensed contractors for single units or whole buildings.
What Panorama City Residents Need
- Replacing a floor or wall furnace: new heating or a heat pump.
- Adding AC to an older home: ductless systems.
- Apartment AC repairs: AC repair for tenants.
- Building maintenance: commercial HVAC for larger properties.
Heating and AC Repair in Panorama City
Many Panorama City homes still have original floor furnaces or wall heaters, and many apartments rely on through-the-wall AC units. When one of these stops working, the right fix depends on the age of the equipment and whether a central system or a ductless mini-split would be a better long-term option. A licensed contractor can service the heater you have, check gas connections and venting, and quote a replacement if parts are no longer available.
Owners and tenants can call or fill out the short form. Tell us you are in Panorama City and what kind of heater or AC you have, and we connect you with an independent CSLB-licensed contractor.

Common Questions
My home still has a floor furnace. Is it safe to keep using?
A well-maintained floor furnace can work, but older units should be inspected every year. The grille gets very hot, so keep rugs, furniture and small children away from it. If it is very old or the flame looks yellow, have it checked or consider replacing it.
Can you help landlords with tenant AC calls?
Yes. We connect landlords and property managers with licensed contractors for tenant repair calls, replacements and routine maintenance.
Who issues permits in Panorama City?
Panorama City is in the City of Los Angeles, so permits come from LADBS, and electricity comes from LADWP.
