Talk to a friendly expert and give us a call: 800-551-3040Welcome to Rancho Cordova - a city with rich roots, beautiful parks, and a growing sense of community. If you live here, you know how unique this area is, from its Gold Rush history to its modern-day attractions, but you also know there are challenges that come with living in our vibrant community. Whether it’s preparing your home for our hot, dry summers or ensuring warmth during those damp winters, Rancho Cordova has specific needs - and that’s where Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc. comes in to help.
A Look Back at Rancho Cordova’s Rich History
Rancho Cordova has deep ties to California’s past, dating back to the Gold Rush era. The Sacramento Valley Railroad, California’s first, even ran through the area in the 1850s, and it became a bustling hub for miners. Our community continued to grow and evolve with the establishment of Mather Air Force Base in 1918, which helped transform this area into a vital center for military training. If you take a stroll around Mather Field, you can feel a sense of history that’s still alive today. Rancho Cordova only officially became a city in 2003, but it’s clear our community’s story is a cornerstone of the region’s history.
Rancho Cordova Today: Community and Engagement
We’re a tight-knit community, supported by the Cordova Community Council and the Rancho Cordova Chamber of Commerce, both of which work hard to keep our neighborhoods connected. If you’re looking to get involved, neighborhood associations and cultural festivals offer ways to make a difference or simply enjoy our city’s diversity. With year-round events, we’re always finding reasons to come together and celebrate what makes Rancho Cordova unique.
As our community grows, we face a few challenges that can impact comfort and safety in our homes. The hot, dry summers here can push HVAC systems to their limits. Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc. can install upgrades to your home comfort such as whole house fans, and heat and energy recovery ventilators. An HRV/ERV system brings fresh air inside your home without the loss of conditioned air. And a whole house fan can work wonders to lower your year-round energy expenses.
Neighborhoods and Local Hot Spots
Whether you’re in Stone Creek, Capital Village, or Sunridge Park, each Rancho Cordova neighborhood has its own charm. Locals love to unwind at Burning Barrel Brewing Company or Il Forno Classico, a popular spot for authentic Italian cuisine. And if you’re in the mood for family fun, Hagan Community Park is a community favorite, offering extensive trails, play areas, and scenic picnic spots. Our Barrel District, a cluster of craft breweries and distilleries, is a major draw for both locals and visitors, proving that Rancho Cordova knows how to balance history with modern amenities.
Outdoor Adventures and Landmarks
We’re lucky to be so close to the American River Parkway, a 32-mile greenbelt that offers everything from biking to kayaking. The Sacramento State Aquatic Center on Lake Natoma is perfect for water sports, and it’s just one of the many ways we make the most of our great outdoors. Nimbus Dam, part of the Central Valley Project, is not only an important water source but a local landmark, representing our city’s connection to water management and conservation. And with Prairie City State Vehicular Recreation Area nearby, there’s no shortage of outdoor adventure for everyone.
A Climate That Demands the Right Home Comfort Solutions
Rancho Cordova’s Mediterranean climate brings scorching, dry summers with temperatures often in the 90s, while winters can be cool and damp. During the summer, our homes rely heavily on air conditioning, which can lead to high energy bills if your HVAC system isn’t running efficiently. Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc. offers comprehensive home energy audits to ensure you’re not losing energy - or money - due to an inefficient system. Our audits pinpoint problem areas so you can make smart improvements, from sealing air leaks to upgrading your system to an energy-efficient model.
At Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc., our goal is to make sure your home is ready for anything-including the challenge brought by outdated ductwork. If your HVAC system depends on a ventilation system, we can test and seal outdated ductwork that is filled with holes and leaks. Our comprehensive duct services will help you save money on utility costs year-round by supporting your home’s HVAC system better
Wildfire Risks and Indoor Air Quality
As you know, wildfire season brings an added concern for our community. Even if fires aren’t in our immediate vicinity, smoke can travel miles and affect our air quality. That’s why indoor air quality systems are more important than ever. Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc. offers advanced solutions, like air purifiers and high-grade filtration systems, to keep the air inside your home clean, no matter what’s happening outside. With the right system in place, you can breathe easy and protect your family’s health during wildfire season.
Claims to Fame and Community Pride
Rancho Cordova is known for more than just its proximity to the Gold Rush trails. Our city is rapidly growing and recognized as one of the fastest-developing areas in Sacramento County. The Barrel District has put us on the map as a craft beverage destination, and being close to the American River gives us that "Gold Country" identity that’s full of history and pride. Residents here take pride in our city’s evolution from a historic Gold Rush town to a bustling, modern community.
Facing Challenges Head-On: Drought and Power Concerns
California’s periodic droughts impact all of us, and they’re especially hard on homeowners who want to maintain energy-efficient and environmentally friendly properties. Rancho Cordova’s drought conditions require us to think about sustainable solutions such as upgrading a water heater to an energy-efficient version. Modern water heaters provide great benefits not just to the environment but to your wallet as well. We offer comprehensive water heater services to make sure your system runs at peak efficiency.
Talking Like a Local
Living here, you’ve probably heard or used some local lingo. You’ll hear people refer to "The River" when talking about the American River, and "The Parkway" refers to the scenic American River Parkway. Mather Air Force Base is simply "The Base" to many, and the Barrel District is well-known for its lively craft scene. And let’s not forget "Gold Country," a term that ties us to our historical roots and evokes that pioneering spirit that Rancho Cordova was built on.
