How Do Heat Pumps Work?

Heat pumps are like air conditioners in that they use refrigerant to provide home comfort.

When set to cooling mode, your heat pump will use refrigerant to absorb heat from indoor air and transfer it outside.

When in heating mode, it removes the heat from the air outside your home to warm the interior.

Because a heat pump doesn’t generate heat like a furnace or boiler, it’s significantly more energy-efficient and safe.

Heat Pump Installation & Replacement

You can expect your heat pump to last 10 to 15 years with normal use and routine maintenance. Blue Bear Plumbing, Heating & Air provides expert heat pump installation and will test your system to ensure proper heating and cooling function.

If you already rely on a heat pump for your home comfort, consider a replacement if your system:

  • Is over 10 years old
  • Needs frequent or costly repairs
  • Generates higher utility costs

Heat Pump Repair

Blue Bear Plumbing, Heating & Air can identify and resolve your heat pump issue, whether it’s normal wear and tear or a complete breakdown. We offer comprehensive heat pump repairs, including emergency 24/7 repairs. Signs your system may need to be repaired include:

  • The system producing warm air when it’s set to cool
  • The system producing cool air when it’s set to heat
  • Odd noises
  • Unusual odors
  • System short-cycling
  • Refrigerant leaks

Heat Pump Maintenance

The best way to keep your heat pump running reliably is to schedule routine maintenance.

Because this system provides year-round comfort, we recommend scheduling twice-annual maintenance, just like you would if you had separate heating and air conditioning systems.

When you schedule tune-ups with our team, we’ll:

  • Identify and address small issues before they impact your comfort
  • Reduce the risk of breakdowns
  • Improve energy efficiency
  • Maximize the unit’s lifespan
  • Ensure consistent operation

Geothermal Heat Pump Installation & Repair

Geothermal systems collect and transfer heat from the ground, while air-source heat pumps transfer heat from the air. Both are highly effective, energy-efficient processes that can heat your home in the winter and keep it cool in the summer. While each system is different, it’s not uncommon for geothermal heat pumps to deliver efficiencies ranging from 300% to 600%. 

Our trained and certified technicians can provide a full range of services, including:

  • Geothermal heat pump installation: We can install either a horizontal or vertical ground loop, ductwork, and the heat pump wire and then connect every aspect of your system. We carefully plan every stage of the process, secure the necessary permits, and use the latest techniques and technologies to complete the installation quickly and with minimal disruption to your home and schedule.
  • Geothermal heat pump replacement: These systems can last anywhere from 20 to 25 years, and underground systems can even last 25 to 50 years. When your system ages out or no longer functions properly, we’ll help you identify and install the most suitable replacement.
  • Geothermal heat pump repair: We can repair leaks, replace broken or damaged fan blades, remove scale buildup, replace broken or stuck valves, replace motors, and more. We use only high-quality components with a proven track record of reliability. 
  • Geothermal heat pump maintenance: Our technicians can change air filters, inspect and clean condensation pans and drains, repair damaged ductwork, reprogram thermostats, inspect the ground loop, and more.

What Our Clients Are Saying
Blue Bear was awesome to work with - we had to have an emergency water heater replacement and they were able to come within 24hrs. We received multiple options with pricing and were able to pick a solution that worked best for our needs. Nice install and great clean up afterwards. Had them back out again to install an outdoor shower Again, on time, great communication, completed the installation exactly the way we wanted it and at the exact price quoted. Fantastic job! Oh and we love that they are owned locally!! Congrats to you Chris and team! Thanks for being a great neighbor. Jeremy D.
So the day before Thanksgiving our water heater sprays water all over the basement floor. We think with the holiday and the weekend coming, there goes water usage for at least 5 days. But no! We call blue bear that morning, and the very nice lady sets up a technician to come out to inspect that day! Peter gets to our house, diagnoses the problem, gives our family a few different options explaining everything and gets it all done SAME day! Couldn’t be happier with the friendliness and professionalism of this company. When our furnace decides to let go on us (probably before the next holiday) they will be #1 on the list to call...5 stars and thank you! George K.
Blue Bear was incredible - easy to schedule, clear communication, professional work quality, expert support afterward. We had a complex project (two heat pumps that needed to work with our prior system) and the Blue Bear team absolutely hit a home run! Great work! John K.
Blue Bear exceeded my expectations. Ben was on time, courteous, extremely knowledgeable, and quickly fixed all the issues I had with my boiler. He even noticed a couple other issues I was unaware of, gave me a quote on the spot, and repaired them the same day. This definitely saved me trouble that would have “surprised” me down the road so his attention to detail gave me peace of mind that my system is working properly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Ben and Blue Bear to anyone needing HVAC services. Brian R.
I’ve used Blue Bear plumbing quite a lot. I own a hair salon and often, plumbing issues occur, which is problematic for us to run effectively. Their plumbers have always been super nice, polite and very knowledgeable. Today, Scott came to fix a pipe that burst and he was awesome- but like I said, I’ve used them a bunch and everyone has been outstanding. Carolyn C.
