Houston Heat Pump Installation and Care
Heat pumps work by moving air over a compressor, heating or cooling it similarly to a refrigerator. They conserve more thermal energy than a standard AC, making them more efficient and an environmentally friendly cooling solution.
We service air-source and geothermal heat pumps in Houston, as well as ducted (central air) and ductless (mini-split) heat pump systems. Whatever your brand or model, our technicians can install, maintain, and repair your heat pump.
Heat Pump Installation in Houston
If you don’t have any air conditioner at all or you’d like to replace an older, less efficient unit, we’ve got you covered! You’ll save money every summer by replacing a 10- to 15-year-old air conditioner with a new air-source heat pump. Our technicians expertly install a range of brand-new air-source and geothermal heat pumps.
Air-source heat pumps themselves usually last about 10-15 years while geothermal systems can last 20-25 years before needing replacement.
If your current heat pump system is older than 15 years and needs frequent repairs, our technician may recommend a replacement over a temporary fix.
Houston Heat Pump Maintenance
Just like other HVAC systems, heat pumps run better and last longer when properly maintained. Since heat pumps do double duty as your cooling and heating system, schedule maintenance twice a year; once in April or May before the hot weather starts and again in the fall before the night-time lows get down to the 40s in December.
Our technicians will tune up your system, check for and fix any damaged or worn parts, and ensure everything runs as smoothly as it should so your heat pump keeps you and your family comfortable year-round.
Heat Pump Repair in Houston
Sometimes, your heat pump stops heating or cooling the way it should. When that happens, call us for repairs!
Here are the signs you need a heat pump service call:
- Heat pump blows hot air on the AC setting, or cold air on the heat setting.
- System doesn’t run or turn on when it’s supposed to.
- Indoor temperature doesn’t match the thermostat setting.
- Strange noises or smells from the unit or vents.
- A sweet chemical smell. (This indicates a refrigerant leak, which means you should turn off your system immediately and call for emergency heat pump repair.)
- Short-cycling, or your system turning on and off more frequently than it should.
- System running constantly.
- Iced or dirty condenser coils.
- A sudden, unexplained increase in your energy bills.
