Heat Pumps
Table of Contents
Running a separate AC and furnace makes sense in a climate with long, hard winters, but Gilbert rarely sees that kind of cold. Most homes here spend the vast majority of the year cooling, and only need a bit of heat for a handful of weeks in the winter. Maintaining two full systems for that split use case is not always the most efficient way to handle it, and an aging furnace that barely runs can end up costing more to keep around than it is worth. Ellsworth Home Services installs and services heat pumps for Gilbert, AZ homeowners who want one efficient system handling both jobs.
Gilbert’s Local Heat Pump Team
Ellsworth Home Services has operated as a family owned and operated business based in Gilbert since 2008, holding ROC licenses 267572, 259768, and 361935 for the work we do.
We install heat pump systems using the same trusted Bosch and Grandaire equipment we rely on for our AC installations, so you get a system backed by manufacturers we already know well.
Why Consider a Heat Pump in Gilbert, AZ
A heat pump is not the right fit for every home, but it lines up well with the way Gilbert’s climate actually works.
- One system instead of two: A heat pump handles both heating and cooling, which means one piece of equipment to install, maintain, and eventually replace instead of two.
- Efficient electric heating: Since a heat pump moves heat rather than burning fuel to create it, it tends to use less energy than a traditional furnace for the mild heating Gilbert actually needs.
- Simpler equipment lifecycle: With a single system doing both jobs, you are not stuck managing two different equipment ages, warranty timelines, or maintenance schedules.
- A good match for mild winters: Heat pumps lose some efficiency in very cold temperatures, which is rarely a concern in a climate where winter lows stay relatively mild.
If your home currently runs a separate AC and furnace, and the furnace barely gets used, a heat pump is worth a look the next time either system needs a real decision made about it.
Types of Heat Pumps We Install in Gilbert
Heat pumps come in a few different configurations, and the right one depends on your home’s layout and existing setup.
Ducted Air-Source Heat Pumps
For homes with existing ductwork, a ducted heat pump ties into that system the same way a central AC unit would, providing both heating and cooling through the same set of vents. This is usually the simplest option for a home replacing an existing central AC and furnace setup.
Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pumps
For additions, converted spaces, or homes without ductwork at all, we install ductless mini split heat pump systems. These provide heating and cooling to individual rooms or zones without the cost of adding ductwork to a space that never had it.
Packaged Heat Pump Systems
A packaged heat pump combines the compressor and air handler into a single outdoor unit rather than splitting them between an indoor and outdoor component. This can be a good option for homes with limited indoor space for equipment, such as smaller mechanical closets or homes without an attic set up for an air handler.
Related Services
A heat pump and a water heater solve different problems, but homeowners often weigh both together during a bigger equipment update. If you are also considering a water heater upgrade, we install both tank and tankless water heaters, and once your new heat pump is installed, our AC maintenance visits help keep it running efficiently in cooling mode through the summer.
