HEAT PUMP SERVICES:

There are three main types of heat pumps; ground source (geothermal heat pumps), water source and air source. Air source heat pumps are the most commonly used in the United States and can operate with or without a duct system. Our heat pump specialists will consider factors such as budget, energy efficiency, and location to help you determine the best option for your needs.

For optimal performance, aim to maintain your heat pump at least once a year, ideally before each heating and cooling season. Regular tuneups that include cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, and replacing air filters ensure your heat pumps efficiency and life span.

Heats pumps use refrigerant inside coils to gather heat from outside, rather than burning fuel. Heats pumps consume about the same amount of energy used by a standard baseboard heater, but the difference is heat pumps produce around three times more heat. This production of heat and the fact that heat pumps double as cooling units, make this an energy efficient option for your home.

Often yes. In many Boulder and Front Range homes, a cold climate heat pump can replace a gas furnace and handle summer cooling too. You may still want electric resistance backup for very cold nights. Be sure to get a proper load calculation and a duct review so sizing and airflow are right. If you want a local pro to confirm, we can check your home at a time that works for you.

A summer ice up usually points to poor airflow or low refrigerant. Common causes include a dirty filter, blocked return grilles, a clogged indoor coil, or a blower that is not moving enough air. Start by replacing the filter and clearing vents, then let the unit thaw fully before restarting. If icing returns, call us for a maintenance.

Heat pumps often feel cooler than a furnace because they use lower supply temps and longer run times. If your place is not warming, check that the thermostat is set to heat, the filter is clean, and outdoor coils are free of debris. If it still struggles, you may have a refrigerant, sensor, or defrost issue. Call us for a quick diagnosis and tune-up, and we’ll get your home back to comfort in no time.

Some moisture is normal due to condensation, but steady dripping often means a clogged drain, a cracked pan, or heavy melt during defrost. Turn the system off, replace the filter, and clear the drain line if you can reach it safely. If puddles keep showing up near the air handler or the outdoor pad, schedule now so we can stop the leak, prevent damage, and fix the root cause.
