Heat Pump Installation
Heat pump installation
In the Las Vegas Valley a standard heat pump can handle both summer cooling and mild winters. In Reno, Carson City and higher elevations, a cold-climate heat pump or a dual-fuel system with a gas furnace backup is usually the better fit.

Heat pumps move heat instead of burning fuel, so they cool like an AC and heat efficiently when temperatures are above freezing. Modern variable-speed and cold-climate models keep heating well into the single digits.
A good installation includes a load calculation, checking that the electrical service can support it, and correct setup of the auxiliary heat and defrost controls.

Frequently asked questions
Do heat pumps work in Reno winters?
Cold-climate heat pumps are designed to heat efficiently well below freezing. Many Northern Nevada homes pair one with a gas furnace for the coldest nights.
Can a heat pump replace my AC in Las Vegas?
Yes. A heat pump cools the same way an AC does and adds efficient heating for mild Southern Nevada winters.
