FAQs
What heating and air-conditioning services do you offer in Kelso?
We provide complete HVAC solutions, including new system design and installation, replacement of outdated furnaces, heat pumps and air conditioners, seasonal tune-ups, 24/7 emergency repairs, indoor air-quality products, ductwork modification, and smart-thermostat integration. Every project starts with a free in-home assessment so we can recommend equipment and settings that match Kelso’s climate and your household’s comfort goals.
How do you determine the right HVAC system for my Kelso home or business?
Our comfort specialists perform a Manual-J load calculation that factors in square footage, insulation levels, window orientation, occupancy, and local weather data for Kelso. We also discuss your comfort preferences, energy-saving goals, and budget. Using this information, we present several tailored options—such as high-efficiency gas furnaces, variable-speed heat pumps, or ductless mini-splits—so you can choose the system that will deliver optimal comfort and lower utility bills.
How often should my heating and cooling equipment be serviced?
We recommend two professional maintenance visits per year: one in early spring for your cooling system and one in early fall for your furnace or heat pump. Regular tune-ups keep your equipment running safely and efficiently, help maintain the manufacturer’s warranty, and reduce the likelihood of mid-season breakdowns—especially important given Kelso’s wet winters and increasingly warm summers.
Is investing in high-efficiency HVAC equipment worthwhile in Kelso’s climate?
Yes. Although Kelso’s winters are milder than those east of the Cascades, the damp chill leads to long heating cycles, and summer heat waves are becoming more common. High-efficiency furnaces (95%+ AFUE) and variable-speed heat pumps or air conditioners can cut energy use by 20–40% compared to older units. Over a system’s 15-20-year life, the energy savings typically offset the higher upfront cost while keeping your home more comfortable and quieter.
Do you offer emergency HVAC repair services in Kelso, and how quickly can you respond?
Absolutely. Our on-call technicians are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Because we’re locally based, most Kelso addresses are within a 30-minute drive of our dispatch center. We arrive with fully stocked service vans and can resolve more than 90% of breakdowns on the first visit, no matter the brand of equipment.
What rebates, tax credits, or financing options are available for HVAC installations?
Kelso residents may qualify for federal tax credits of up to $2,000 on qualifying heat-pump installations, plus utility rebates from Cowlitz PUD or Cascade Natural Gas for high-efficiency furnaces, smart thermostats, and duct sealing. We handle all paperwork and will deduct the rebates from your upfront cost whenever possible. Flexible financing plans—ranging from 0% interest for 12 months to low-payment terms up to 120 months—are also available to approved homeowners and businesses.
