With a legacy dating back to 1958, our team delivers expert solutions and the Gold Star standard of service to keep your home comfortable in every season.

How a Heat Pump Delivers Year-Round Efficiency

Unlike traditional furnaces that burn fuel to create heat, a heat pump operates on a principle of heat transfer. In the winter, it extracts ambient heat from the outside air—even when it's cold—and transfers it inside your home. In the summer, it reverses this process, pulling heat out of your indoor air and moving it outside, functioning just like a standard air conditioner.

This innovative process offers several key advantages for Texas homeowners:

  • Exceptional Energy Efficiency: Because they move heat rather than generate it, heat pumps can be significantly more energy-efficient than furnaces and traditional air conditioners. This translates directly into lower monthly utility bills.
  • One System for All Seasons: A heat pump eliminates the need for two separate systems for heating and cooling. This simplifies maintenance and saves space.
  • Improved Indoor Air Quality: Heat pumps don't produce dry air the way some furnaces can. When paired with advanced filtration systems, they circulate cleaner, more comfortable air throughout your home.
  • Environmentally Friendly Operation: By using electricity to transfer heat, these systems reduce your home’s carbon footprint compared to systems that rely on fossil fuels.

Our Comprehensive Heat Pump Services

We offer a full spectrum of services to ensure your heat pump operates at peak performance, efficiency, and reliability for its entire lifespan.

Heat Pump Installation and Replacement

Choosing the right heat pump for your home is critical for achieving optimal comfort and efficiency. Our technicians begin every installation with a thorough assessment of your home’s unique needs, including its size, layout, insulation, and your family's comfort preferences. We ensure your new unit is perfectly sized and expertly installed for maximum performance. If your current system is over 10-15 years old, requires frequent repairs, or struggles to keep up with demand, a modern, high-efficiency Heat Pump Replacement can provide significant savings and improved comfort.

Heat Pump Repair

When your system malfunctions, you need fast, reliable service. Our skilled technicians are equipped to diagnose and repair all makes and models of heat pumps. We arrive with fully stocked vehicles, prepared to address any issue with precision and care. We pride ourselves on providing accurate diagnostics to fix the root cause of the problem, not just the symptom. Common issues we resolve include:

  • The unit is not switching between heating and cooling modes.
  • Ice or frost buildup on the outdoor coils.
  • The system is blowing air that isn't the right temperature.
  • Loud or unusual noises, such as grinding, squealing, or clanking.
  • The unit is short-cycling or running constantly.
  • A sudden and unexplained increase in your energy bills.

Proactive Heat Pump Maintenance

Regular maintenance is the single most effective way to protect your investment. An annual tune-up extends your system's lifespan, prevents unexpected breakdowns, and ensures it runs as efficiently as possible. During a maintenance visit, our technicians perform a detailed inspection and cleaning, including checking refrigerant levels, lubricating moving parts, tightening electrical connections, cleaning the coils, and testing the thermostat. Our Membership Plan offers a convenient and affordable way to stay on top of this crucial service while enjoying discounts and priority scheduling.

"I am so impressed with Burnside!!! I will never even consider using anyone else. I was u def a lot of pressure and the heating system was not working correctly and they found a minor inexpensive solution. Another local vendor charged way more for a similar situation. I immediately sighed up for their annual program. God bless them."
