A gas furnace
Makes its own heat by burning fuel. It's a dedicated heater — it warms the house and nothing else — and it can push out strong, steady heat on the coldest nights.
Heating / Installation & Replacement
A new furnace or heat pump, sized to your home — then commissioned and proven.
Shopping for a new heating system is a big call, and the right one depends on your house — not on whatever happened to be installed before. We help you choose between a furnace and a heat pump, size it to your home with a load calculation, and install it safely — then we commission the system and hand you a report with a health score, photos of the real work, and findings in plain language. Every install is commissioned by the same crew that put it in, and it can earn an independent ANSI/ACCA Standard 5 certificate.
Furnace or heat pump?
Two ways to heat a home — here's the plain difference.
Both keep the house warm. They just go about it differently, and one may fit your home better than the other.
A heat pump
Moves heat rather than burning fuel, and it runs in reverse in summer to cool. That means one unit can replace both your heater and your air conditioner.
Which one fits
It comes down to what you have now, how your home is set up, and your budget. We lay out the trade-offs in plain terms and help you pick — no pressure toward the pricier option.
Sized, not guessed
We size the system to your home, not to the old one.
The most common mistake in a replacement is swapping in the same size as the unit coming out. That old size may have been wrong to begin with, and homes change — new windows, added insulation, a finished room.
So we do a load calculation instead. We measure the home and figure out how much heating it actually needs, then match the equipment to that number.
Getting the size right matters. A system that's too big heats in short bursts and leaves rooms uneven; one that's too small runs and runs without ever catching up. The right size keeps the house comfortable and keeps the running cost down.
Commissioned, not just installed
Installed safely, commissioned, then proven in writing.
A heating system that burns fuel or handles high voltage has to be put in right. We don't call a job done until we've measured it, tuned it, and handed you the proof.
Whoever installs your system is who commissions it — nothing is subbed out. The same crew that sets the equipment is the crew that measures it, tunes it, and signs off on it. No handoff to a stranger, no box checked by someone who never saw the work. That's a hard guarantee, not a maybe.
Step 01
The right equipment
We install the system we sized for your home, matched to how you heat and what fits the space.
Step 02
Vented and connected correctly
A furnace has to vent its exhaust safely to the outside. We set that up properly and make every connection to code.
Step 03
Commissioned after install
Once it's in, the same crew runs the system, takes real measurements, and tunes it to the manufacturer's design targets.
Step 04
The commissioning report
You get a branded commissioning report with a system health score, photos of the actual work, and findings in plain language.
What you're handed
Walked through it before we leave. In your inbox after.
Before the crew packs up, we sit down with you and walk you through the commissioning report on a tablet — the health score, the photos, and what every finding means for your home, in plain words. You can ask about anything on the screen while the people who did the work are still standing in front of you.
Then the finished PDF report lands in your email, so you have it to keep — for your records, for the warranty, or to hand to the next person who ever works on the system.
What we measure
The readings behind the score.
Because the system is brand new, there's no "before and after" — the score measures how closely the finished install hits the manufacturer's design targets for your equipment.
How much air is moving through the vents
Whether each part of the house is getting the air it's supposed to (airflow).
How hard the system has to push
How much resistance the ducts put up against moving that air (static pressure).
How much cooling fluid is in the system
On a heat pump, the amount, pressures, and temperatures of the fluid that moves the heat (refrigerant charge).
The electrical readings
That the system is drawing power the way it should and running within safe limits.
Independent certification
When it verifies high, it earns an ANSI/ACCA Standard 5 certificate.
Standard 5 is the national, industry-agreed definition of what a correct install actually looks like. When your system verifies at a high measured score, it earns a certificate against that standard — independent verification, not a document we write for ourselves.
There are two levels:
- Verified Equipment Operation (VEO) — the equipment is confirmed running right on your existing ducts.
- Verified System Performance (VSP) — the full certification, covering the equipment, the ducts, and the house together.
The certificate is yours to keep. It backs up your warranty and is accepted by utility and rebate programs, so the proof works for you long after we've driven off.
No ducts? No problem
A ductless option for homes and rooms that need it.
Not every home is built for ducted equipment, and not every space is easy to reach with the system you already have. For a home without ducts, or for an add-on room, a garage conversion, or a bonus space that never quite gets warm, a ductless unit can be the simpler fix.
It heats and cools that space on its own, without tying into the rest of the house. If that sounds like your situation, we can walk you through whether it makes sense.

Common questions
Buying a new system, answered plainly.
Should I get a furnace or a heat pump?
It depends on your home. A gas furnace makes its own heat by burning fuel and only heats. A heat pump moves heat instead of burning fuel and also cools, so one unit can replace both your heater and your air conditioner. We look at what you have now, how your home is set up, and your budget, then help you pick the one that fits.
What size heating system do I need?
The right size comes from a load calculation, not from copying the size of the old unit. We measure your home and match the equipment to it. A system that's too big or too small costs more to run and heats unevenly, so getting the size right is what makes a new system comfortable.
What will a new system cost?
We give you a firm price after we measure your home, not a guess over the phone. The quote is yours to keep, with the equipment and the work spelled out so you can compare it to anyone else's.
Can I get a second opinion before I replace?
Yes, and it's free. If someone has told you it's time to replace, we'll measure your system before we ever look at their number, so you know the recommendation is based on your home. See our free second opinion.
What is a commissioning report, and do I get one?
Yes. Every install we do is commissioned by the same crew that installs it — nothing is subbed out. After the system is running we measure the airflow, the static pressure, the refrigerant charge on a heat pump, and the electrical readings, and build a branded commissioning report with a system health score, photos of the actual work, and findings in plain language. Because the system is new, the score is measured against the manufacturer's design targets rather than a before-and-after. We walk you through the report on a tablet before we leave, and you get the PDF by email afterward. See a sample commissioning report.
What is an ANSI/ACCA Standard 5 certificate?
Standard 5 is the national consensus definition of a correct install. When your system verifies at a high measured score, it earns a certificate against that standard — independent verification, not a document we issue ourselves. There are two levels: Verified Equipment Operation (VEO), which confirms the equipment is running right on your existing ducts, and Verified System Performance (VSP), the full certification covering the equipment, the ducts, and the house together. The certificate is yours to keep, it supports your warranty, and it's accepted by utility and rebate programs.
