Expert Heat Pump Replacement Available Locally
Heat pumps are popular in our area due to their ability to effectively heat and cool homes in a moderate climate like we experience in Northern California. In addition to providing heat and air, modern heat pumps are very efficient and use little energy when installed correctly.
When maintained per manufacturer standards, heat pumps can last a very long time. However, all heating and cooling systems will eventually need to be replaced. When the time comes to replace your heat pump, it’s important to select a qualified and licensed contractor who can correctly handle the replacement process from start to finish.
Our company is proud to be the chosen HVAC services provider for people all over Northern California, and we offer many services which can help your home run as efficiently as possible. In the sections to follow, we will discuss a few common issues which can arise during a heat pump replacement, and the steps we take to ensure our clients don’t face these problems.
Non-Airtight Ducts
When replacing the heat pump unit in a home, on many occasions we can use the existing ductwork in the home. While some contractors might be tempted to simply connect the unit to the ducts and call the job complete, it’s important to ensure the ducts are in good shape and ready to work with the new unit. Our team prides itself on an efficient install, so we thoroughly check the ducts running through your home to make sure there are no air gaps, blockages or weak points. By doing so, we allow your new unit to run as intended and not struggle to heat and cool your home. This can save you money on energy costs and extend the lifespan of the unit.
Incompatible Unit
The right heat pump for your home will depend on several factors. When replacing an older model, it’s important to ensure you pick the right unit for your home’s needs. Modern heat pumps are very efficient, but they must be the right size to sufficiently heat and cool your home’s square footage. When we work with clients on a heat pump replacement, we take several factors into account to help them select the right unit, including their location, home size and budget.
Electrical Issues
Newer heat pump units use advanced technology to help them run as efficiently as possible, which means there are several sensors and other electrical components which must work in tandem for the system to run as intended. Our team is experienced in working with these electrical connections, and we not only have the know-how to install them correctly, we take the time to thoroughly test the system and ensure it’s working as intended.
If you’re considering replacing your heat pump, or yours has recently stopped working, we can help every step of the way. To learn more about our heat pump replacement process or have one of our friendly technicians come evaluate the needs of your home, give us a call today.
