# Heating & Air Conditioning in El Cajon, CA | CrossBreeze Heating & Air > El Cajon sits in the box shaped valley that gave it its name, 17 miles east of downtown San Diego, and the summer heat here has nothing to do with the coast. ## Serving El Cajon and Surrounding Areas El Cajon is inland, about 15 miles from the ocean, the city people call the Box. The climate has greater extremes than coastal San Diego. Summer days get hot, the record high was 114 degrees F on September 5, 2020, and the swing between day and night averages 24 degrees F in summer. That means air conditioners run hard in the afternoon and the house wants to cool down again at night. CrossBreeze Heating & Air is based in Mira Mesa, about 25 minutes from El Cajon, and works across the valley. We cover Fletcher Hills, Bostonia, Rancho San Diego and Downtown El Cajon, and the rest of the valley right up to the La Mesa, Spring Valley and Santee borders. With hot afternoons, most of what we do here is AC Repair, AC Installation & Replacement, and HVAC Maintenance & Tune Ups before summer. The big day to night temperature swing in El Cajon is exactly what a Whole House Fan is for, pulling the cooler night air through the house instead of running the AC, and Attic Fan Installation helps the same way. A Heat Pump Installation gives you cooling and heating from one unit, and we handle Furnace & Heating Repair, Mini Split Installation and Ducting & Zoning as well. Every job starts the same way. Eddie comes out, looks at what you have, and gives you a straight number before any work begins. We do not quote a price sight unseen. CrossBreeze is C20 licensed, CSLB #1055889, with a 5.0 rating on 26 Google reviews. ### Areas We Cover Around El Cajon - Fletcher Hills - [Bostonia](https://crossbreezehvac.com/locations/bostonia.md) - Rancho San Diego - Downtown El Cajon ### Local Service Area Based in Mira Mesa, San Diego since 2018.
