Heat Pump Installation in Montgomery, AL
This piece of HVAC equipment’s name is quite deceptive. But whether it’s cooling, heating or dehumidifying your home, a heat pump can do it all.
During the summer, when you need cool air for comfort, a heat pump will deliver it much like a traditional air conditioner. In the winter, when warm air is a must to blanket yourself from the colder temperatures, a heat pump reverses its operation and provides the heat you need. Considering Alabama’s relatively temperate climate in the winter, a heat pump is worth serious consideration.
Air Conditioning by Luquire’s service technicians undergo the highest levels of training and are certified by NATE. As a Carrier Factory Authorized Dealer, we’re able to offer our customers access to the best heat pumps on the market.
