Heat Pumps
When saving energy is at the height of your concerns, heat pumps make sense. They take the place of a furnace and air conditioner (AC) by providing both heat and cool air whenever needed.
Our heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) experts at All Weather can recommend a heat pump that fits both your comfort needs and your budget. You can expect the utmost experience and professionalism from our team.
If you are considering a heat pump installation or replacement, or if you are looking for repairs or maintenance, our licensed team lives up to our reputation.
How Are Heat Pump Systems Different?
Heat pumps work differently than more traditional heating and cooling systems. They offer an energy-efficient alternative to furnaces and air conditioners.
When the outdoor temperatures dip, heat pumps capture heat from the outdoors and move it into your Snoqualmie, WA, home. Then, during the warmer season, they transfer the heat from inside your home outdoors.
Because they move heat from one location to another rather than generate heat, heat pumps are very energy efficient, costing you much less in energy than conventional HVAC systems. Speak to one of our All Weather heat pump specialists to discuss which heat pump would best suit your needs and budget.
What Are Some Heat Pump Benefits?
A heat pump’s energy efficiency is just one of the multiple benefits and ways to save money year-round. Unlike a standard gas-burning furnace or boiler, a heat pump is considered a greener form of energy. Instead of burning fossil fuels to generate heat, a heat pump uses electricity to transfer heat from one location to another.
Another advantage to a heat pump is your investment in just one unit instead of separate heating and cooling equipment. This means you typically will spend less money on installation and maintenance.
Our heat pump installation experts will take care of the service for you and advise you on how to reduce your energy consumption and lower your Washington home’s energy bills.
Heat Pump Installation
Our All Weather experts can install a heat pump to serve as the central HVAC unit in your Snoqualmie, WA, home. A single, central heat pump system relies on air ducts to circulate hot and cold air throughout your home, just as a furnace and air conditioner do.
We only work with the leading systems and materials, so you can be assured your heat pump will keep you comfortable for years.
If your home has no ductwork, you can install a ductless heat pump with multiple air handlers. These compact units are installed throughout your Washington home and are a great solution for rooms without air ducts.
When it comes to heat pumps, another possibility is adding a heat pump to your existing HVAC system to improve heating efficiency. This is known as a dual-fuel system, consisting of a furnace and a heat pump working as a team to heat your home.
The heat pump serves as your primary heating source until the temperature drops too low for it to work at peak performance. At that point, the furnace kicks in and continues heating until the heat pump can take over again.
We can also help you with financing, subject to approved credit. Whether you are looking to add a more traditional heat pump or a ductless heat pump system, we have options to fit your particular needs. Â

Heat Pump Maintenance
Keeping your heat pump in its best operating condition is your goal. You want your system inspected, cleaned, and tuned up regularly to help avoid unexpected and costly repairs and breakdowns.
You must maintain your automobile regularly, and it is just as important to properly maintain your heat pump comfort system so it can have a long, reliable life expectancy.
Routine maintenance by our trained and experienced All Weather team helps your air conditioner and comfort system in your Snoqualmie, WA, home run efficiently and reliably. With annual professional care, you may experience maintenance benefits such as improved energy efficiency, extended system lifespan, decreased emergencies, and improved comfort.
Just like your car, your air conditioning system must be kept clean. The difference is a dirty heat pump system will consume more energy, increase fatigue, reduce the capacity, and cause breakdowns more often.
Maintenance involves more than just the simple act of changing the air filter. It encompasses a range of tasks that are essential for ensuring the efficient and effective operation of your comfort system. This includes cleaning the drain line, indoor coil, and outdoor coil as well as balancing the system to ensure proper heat transfer.
Heat transfer is a critical aspect of HVAC systems, as it is the process by which heat is moved from one area to another. With heat pumps, for example, heat transfer is essential for removing heat from the indoor air and transferring it outside, thereby cooling the indoor space.
Cleaning the drain line is important for preventing clogs and blockages that can impede the flow of water and cause leaks or other issues. Similarly, cleaning the indoor and outdoor coils is essential for ensuring that they are free from dirt, debris, and other obstructions that can hinder heat transfer. By keeping these components clean and well maintained, the system can operate at peak efficiency and effectively transfer heat as needed.
Balancing the system is another crucial aspect of maintenance, as it involves ensuring that the various components of the system are working together harmoniously to achieve optimal heat transfer. This may involve adjusting the airflow, floor or ceiling registers, refrigerant levels, and other factors to ensure the system is operating as it should.
Do you know if you have a poorly selected floor or ceiling register or air filter? Has a professional given you their expert opinion on the choice you have made when investing in these items? You may have poorly selected floor registers or air filters.
Overall, maintenance of HVAC systems is a comprehensive process that goes beyond simply changing the air filter. By cleaning and maintaining the various components of the system and ensuring proper heat transfer, it is possible to maximize the efficiency and longevity of the system as well as ensure the comfort and well-being of the occupants.
To help you manage your maintenance, talk to us about our maintenance program, Preventative Maintenance Program. Your heat pump tune-up and inspection are part of the plan, so call and speak with one of our educated and friendly team members about our program today.
How Often Should I Schedule HVAC Maintenance?
Regular maintenance of your HVAC equipment is crucial to ensure it operates efficiently and safely.
At All Weather, we recommend having your heating and air conditioning systems serviced at least once a year, ideally in the fall for the heating system and in the spring for the air conditioning system.
You can perform maintenance on the heating and air conditioning systems in the same season. Doing so will help prevent potential breakdowns, improve energy efficiency, and extend the lifespan of your equipment.

“Having just completed our first annual maintenance visit with the tech from All Weather, I’m back on the review page to continue to sing your praises. We love the heat pump system! The tech was professsional, friendly, respectful of property, and made sure we didn’t have any questions or concerns. The whole year of having this wonderful temperature control has proven to be the best home improvement decision. I can’t count the number of times in the past year that everyone in the family has noted how great it is. Thanks, All Weather, we are very happy customers!”

“We just had All Weather Heating, Air Conditioning & Refrigeration replace our aging gas furnace with a new furnace + heat pump. It’s been a real pleasure working with Scott and his crew from the initial proposal to the final installation. The whole team was very responsive, knowledgeable, professional, respectful, and accommodating. They patiently explained everything and answered all my questions — and believe me, I had a bunch of them initially 😉 — to make sure I have the full understanding of all the available options, capabilities, equipment, rebates, etc. The installation crew finished on time as promised and did an awesome clean job. We are very happy with the outcome. I highly recommend Scott and his team!”

“I have an outdoor heat pump which was seriously damaged by another company while making a service call/annual checkup. That company didn’t return my calls when my heat pump turned into a very noisy, energy consuming ice maker; i.e., the opposite of what it’s supposed to do. A friend recommended All Weather. They came quickly and repaired the damage. The technician, and the person I talked to on the phone, were professional, knowledgeable and competent. The malfunctioning heat pump was quickly fixed. Their pricing is reasonable. I will be using them for all my future heating and air conditioning needs.”
– Dorothy G.
“We recently had a new electric furnace and heat pump installed by All Weather. This was a logistically challenging process due to pandemic-related safety measures and to supply chain problems. Regardless, our experience from the first phone inquiry to final installation was very positive. All staff we encountered online, on the phone, or in person were pleasant, effective, and professional. The technicians were well-trained, and the owner Scott Leibowitz ensured that all proceeded smoothly and any concerns that arose were quickly addressed to our full satisfaction. We look forward to continuing our association with All Weather through its annual maintenance program; and we will be pleased to highly recommend All Weather to others.”
