Heat Pump FAQs
Do heat pumps work well in Seattle?
Yes. Seattle’s mild climate is a good fit for modern heat pump systems. Heat pumps provide efficient heating during cooler months and air conditioning during the summer.
​
Can a heat pump replace my furnace?
In many homes, yes. A properly sized heat pump can provide both heating and cooling. Some homes may still benefit from a backup heat source depending on the system, insulation, and comfort needs.
​
What is the difference between a heat pump and an air conditioner?
An air conditioner only cools your home. A heat pump can cool your home in the summer and provide heat in the winter by moving heat in or out of the house.
​
Do you repair existing heat pumps?
Yes. We diagnose and repair heat pumps that are not heating, not cooling, freezing up, making unusual noises, short cycling, or showing error codes.
​
How often should a heat pump be serviced?
We recommend heat pump maintenance twice a year, once before cooling season and once before heating season. Since heat pumps work year-round, regular service helps protect performance, efficiency, and equipment life.
​
Should I repair or replace my heat pump?
It depends on the age of the system, the cost of the repair, the condition of the equipment, and how well it has been performing. We’ll inspect the system and give you honest options instead of pushing you toward work you don’t need.
​
Do you install ductless mini-splits too?
Yes. Ductless mini-splits are a type of heat pump and can be a great option for homes without ductwork, additions, garages, bonus rooms, or areas that are hard to heat and cool.
