One System That Heats and Cools
A heat pump does not burn fuel to make heat. It moves heat, pulling warmth from the outdoor air into your home in winter and reversing in summer to push heat out. That is why one unit can replace both a furnace and an air conditioner, and why it runs on electricity with no combustion and no carbon monoxide.
We install ducted Rheem air-source heat pumps, which connect to the ductwork you already have:
- Heat pump installation and system replacement
- Furnace and AC replaced by a single heat pump system
- Dual-fuel systems that pair a heat pump with a gas furnace for the coldest stretches
- Heat pump repair on all makes and models
- Annual and seasonal heat pump maintenance
- Smart and programmable thermostat setup
- Old-system removal and haul-away
If your home has no ductwork, or you are trying to solve a single room rather than a whole house, a ductless mini-split is the version of this technology built for that job.
We also handle furnace installation, air conditioning installation, heating repair, heating maintenance, boiler services, ductwork, and indoor air quality.
The question every Flathead homeowner asks about heat pumps is the same one, and it is the right question: will it actually keep up in January?
The honest answer is that it depends on the equipment and on how the system is designed. Cold-climate heat pumps produce useful heat well below freezing, far below what the older generation of equipment could manage. But as outdoor temperatures drop, capacity drops with them, and a system designed without accounting for that will leave you cold on the coldest night of the year. That is why many Flathead installs are dual-fuel: the heat pump handles the long shoulder seasons and the moderate winter days efficiently, and a gas furnace takes over when it gets truly severe. You get the efficiency for most of the year without gambling on the worst week of it.
A Home Comfort Specialist will tell you which setup fits your home, and will tell you if a heat pump is not the right answer. And because we handle heating, cooling, plumbing, and electrical, the same company that installs your system keeps it on file. We register the warranty, log the model and install date, and arrive for future service already knowing your equipment instead of starting from scratch.
