As an HVAC company, we answer a great deal of questions about heating and cooling in Crestview. One of the most common questions: How much will it cost to install a new heat pump? It’s not a simple question to answer without some background information, but we’ll work with you to find the answer.
Here are some factors that can influence your bottom line:
- The size of your home.
- The size of the system.
- The energy-efficiency ratings on your machine.
- Whether the system has ducts.
- The amount of labor involved.
At Gordon Air Conditioning, we’re happy to help you choose the right solution for your home—while taking energy efficiency, price point and your comfort into our review.

DIY or Professional Installation?
There’s another question we hear occasionally. Can I install my new heat pump on my own? We understand it can be inviting to take on home projects to save a larger investment. For many projects, it’s a great idea. But let us be straightforward: Heat pump installation is best left to the professionals.
Unless you’re exceptionally trained with an extensive knowledge of equipment sizing, electrical circuits, home wiring, refrigerant handling and more, your background just can’t match an HVAC expert.
You could end up costing yourself considerably more if you begin the process alone, run into issues and have to bring in an expert to help. If you start the process with a technician, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your heat pump was installed correctly.
Professional installation has another extra benefit: access to the warranty. If you do take on the installation alone and run into trouble, you’re likely out of luck. A lot of warranties are void without professional installation.
When your system fails without a warranty, you’ll no doubt end up paying everything your DIY installation saved—or more.
What to Expect on Installation Day
Before Installation
Prior to starting work on your home, we’ll contact you to let you know when we’ll arrive. Once we arrive, we’ll review the project with you, so you know what’s happening for the rest of the process. After that, we’ll prepare your home and cut off the electricity to your HVAC system.
When we’re replacing a heat pump, the final step to prepare is clearing out the refrigerant. We’ll take care of it for you while conforming with EPA standards. We’ll do the same with the rest of the equipment.
During Installation
Once everything is ready, we’ll get down to the actual installation. That means we’ll get your equipment installed, connect it and wire it so it works with your home. Next, we make sure the system pressure is accurate and test the system. Before we head out, we’ll run your new system for little while to make sure everything works the way we want.
After Installation
Once we’re done installing your new heat pump, we’ll clean up after ourselves, look at system operation with you and wrap up your paperwork.
