Heat Pump Replacement

Effectively handle Montana’s harsh climate with a new heat pump system! Call Comfort Systems of Montana at (406) 522-1114 to learn more.

Montana residents know a Rocky Mountains winter is long and harsh, placing high demands on heating systems. Modern heat pumps provide a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution to warm your home in winter and cool your home in summer.

If your existing system needs an upgrade, consider the benefits of heat pump replacement with a new system professionally installed and maintained by Comfort Systems of Montana, your HVAC contractor in Big Sky, Bozeman, Livingston, and the surrounding region.

Signs You Need Heat Pump Replacement

Heat pumps are highly reliable and durable HVAC systems, but like all equipment, over time they need replacement. 

Here are some of the most common factors present when it is time to consider a new heat pump system: 

• Age. Existing heat pumps typically last between 10 and 15 years. If your system is more than 10 years old, it could be time to consider a system upgrade. This is especially true if you are already experiencing other operational issues.   
• Reduced heating or cooling performance. Heat pumps eventually begin to lose their ability to effectively heat and cool your home due to ordinary wear and tear, maintenance issues, or mechanical breakdowns.
• Increasing energy bills. Older heat pumps or systems with mechanical issues usually have to work harder to maintain the desired temperature, meaning they use more energy to do the same job as previously.
• Poor efficiency. Outdated system efficiency goes hand in hand with increasing utility bills. A heat pump’s SEER rating (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) describes cooling efficiency, and the HSPF rating (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) describes heating. Older models usually had SEER ratings below 13 and HSPF ratings below eight when new. Models available today are usually significantly more efficient, meaning they produce the same climate control for lower costs
• Frequent repairs. When a heat pump requires frequent repairs to stay running, replacement with a brand-new high-efficiency system may be the most cost-effective option for increased comfort in the long run.

Benefits of a New Heat Pump System

Here are some of the advantages of upgrading to a new heat pump system from Comfort Systems of Montana:

• Enhanced efficiency. With higher HSPF and SEER efficiency ratings, modern heat pump systems cost less to operate and have a lower impact on the Montana and global environment.
• Improved comfort. A new system properly selected for and configured to your home will provide more consistent heating and cooling air conditioning throughout your living space through every season.
• Advanced technology and features. Many new heat pump systems provide advanced features like variable speed and remote app operation for precise temperature control all day and night.  
• Better humidity control. Modern heat pump designs have advanced significantly in regulating humidity levels, creating a more comfortable living space and providing higher overall air quality.
