Many Roswell, NM homeowners replacing an aging furnace and AC are switching to a single heat pump instead, and the reason is efficiency. A heat pump does not burn fuel or heat a resistance coil; it moves heat. In cooling mode it carries heat out of the house, and in heating mode a reversing valve sends the refrigerant the other way so the compressor gathers heat from outdoor air and releases it indoors. That lets it deliver two to three times more heat than the electricity it consumes. Modern cold-climate equipment with inverter-driven compressors keeps working well below freezing, which the older units behind the technology's old reputation simply could not do.
Most of our service calls are for AC Repair and Furnace Repair. That's the place to start if you need a fix today.
Warning Signs for Heat Pump Installation
Spotting the early warning signs lets you act before the problem gets expensive. Keep an eye out for the following clues:
- The old system needs refrigerant top-offs or major repairs to limp on
- Your utility company is offering incentives for heat pumps
- You are electrifying the house or pairing major loads with solar
- Your current system leaves rooms too warm in summer and too cool in winter
- High heating bills from electric baseboard, propane, or oil
- You are tired of temperature swings and want steady, even comfort
- Your AC and furnace are both aging and you would rather replace once, not twice
- You would like a single system for heating and cooling with one maintenance plan
