New HVAC System

Why Invest in It.

A new HVAC system is one of the smartest investments you’ll make in your home. Modern heating and cooling equipment delivers dramatic improvements in energy efficiency, comfort, and reliability compared to systems even 10 years old. If your current system is 15+ years old, you’re likely paying 30-50% more in utility costs than necessary. Today’s high-efficiency systems often pay for themselves through reduced utility bills within 7-12 years.

Replacing both your heating and cooling systems together offers several advantages:

  • Matched equipment designed to work together optimally,
  • A single installation process that minimizes disruption,
  • Better overall system efficiency, simplified warranty coverage, and
  • Potential package pricing that reduces your total investment.

Climate Pros takes the guesswork out of this major decision with honest assessments, detailed load calculations, side-by-side comparisons of efficiency levels and costs, guidance on available rebates and financing, and transparent pricing with no pressure tactics.

How We Do It

Our New HVAC System Installation Process.

At Climate Pros, we’ve refined our installation process over 30 years to deliver exceptional results every time. Here’s what to expect when you choose us for your new HVAC system.

We start with a thorough evaluation of your home and existing system at no cost to you. Our licensed technician will inspect your current heating and cooling equipment, evaluate your ductwork condition and layout, assess insulation levels and air sealing, note any unique factors like home orientation or additions, and discuss your comfort concerns and priorities. This comprehensive assessment ensures we understand exactly what your home needs.

 

Proper system sizing is the foundation of comfort and efficiency. We perform a Manual J load calculation,the industry standard for determining precise heating and cooling requirements. This engineering-based analysis considers your home’s square footage and layout, ceiling heights and floor plan, insulation R-values in walls, attic, and floors, window types, sizes, and locations, air infiltration and ductwork efficiency, local climate data and elevation effects, and number of occupants. The result is exact specifications for heating and cooling capacity that ensure your new system delivers optimal performance without being undersized or oversized.

Based on your load calculation and priorities, we’ll present options that match your needs. We’ll guide you through furnace types (gas, electric, heat pump) and efficiency levels, air conditioner or heat pump options and SEER2 ratings, equipment brand comparisons and warranty coverage, add-on features like zoning, air purification, or humidification, and budget-friendly standard-efficiency versus long-term savings of high-efficiency equipment. We’ll explain everything in plain language, helping you understand the trade-offs so you can make an informed decision that fits your budget and goals.

We provide a detailed, itemized quote covering every aspect of your installation. You’ll see system equipment and installation for both heating and cooling units, ductwork modifications or repairs if needed, electrical upgrades if required, thermostat and controls, all necessary permits and inspections, removal and disposal of old equipment, testing, commissioning, and warranty registration, and any recommended add-ons or optional enhancements. No hidden fees, no surprises. We’ll also walk you through flexible financing options with competitive rates and easy approval, help you identify all available rebates and tax credits, and show you long-term savings projections based on efficiency improvements.

On installation day, our licensed, NATE-certified technicians arrive with everything needed to complete the job. We’ll safely remove your old heating and cooling equipment, install your new furnace and AC or heat pump with precision, connect or modify ductwork to manufacturer specifications, wire electrical connections and integrate controls, install and program your thermostat, test all safety controls and system operation, and clean up thoroughly, leaving your home as we found it. Most complete system installations are finished in 1-2 days depending on complexity.

Before we leave, we verify every aspect of your new system’s performance. For heating, we’ll test gas line connections for leaks, verify proper combustion efficiency, confirm safe venting and draft, check thermostat operation and programming, and measure temperature rise and airflow. For cooling, we’ll verify correct refrigerant charge, test electrical connections and capacitors, confirm proper airflow and duct balance, and check thermostat operation. We’ll then walk you through your new system’s features, demonstrate thermostat programming and operation, explain filter replacement and basic maintenance, answer all your questions, and schedule your first annual maintenance visit if you choose a preventive care plan.

Making the Right Choice

Key Considerations.

Choosing the right HVAC system involves balancing several factors. Climate Pros helps you evaluate what matters most for your situation.

Upfront Cost vs. Long-Term Savings

Higher-efficiency equipment costs more initially but delivers substantial savings over 15-20 years. We’ll show you specific payback calculations based on your home’s heating and cooling loads, current utility rates, available rebates and tax credits, and financing costs if applicable. For many homeowners, high-efficiency systems pay for themselves and provide significant net savings over their lifespan.

Fuel Availability & Costs

Your location determines your options. Natural gas availability and costs vary throughout Northern Nevada. Propane is available everywhere but typically costs more than natural gas. Electricity is universal but rates and efficiency matter for heat pumps versus resistance heating. We’ll help you understand the real-world operating costs for each fuel type in your specific location.

Climate Considerations

Northern Nevada’s high-desert climate features hot, dry summers requiring reliable cooling, cold winter nights demanding dependable heating, high altitude affecting combustion and equipment sizing, and dramatic day-night temperature swings. We select equipment designed and sized for these exact conditions, ensuring reliable year-round performance.

Home Characteristics

Your home’s age, construction, and condition influence system selection. Older homes may have ductwork that needs repair or modification, insulation levels that affect heating and cooling loads, electrical service that may need upgrading for high-efficiency equipment, and unique architectural features affecting installation. We account for all these factors in our recommendations.

Future Plans

How long you plan to stay in your home affects your decision. If you’re staying 10+ years, high-efficiency systems offer the best return. If you’re selling within 5 years, mid-efficiency equipment provides good performance with better price appeal. We’ll help you choose the right balance for your timeline.

System Options

Configurations for Your Nevada Home.

Every home is different, and Climate Pros offers solutions tailored to your specific needs and Northern Nevada’s unique climate.

Traditional Split System: Furnace + Central AC

This is the most common HVAC configuration in the Reno area. A gas or electric furnace handles heating, while a separate central air conditioner provides cooling. Both systems share the same ductwork and often the same indoor blower. This setup offers reliable heating for cold Northern Nevada winters, powerful cooling for hot summers, independent operation,heating and cooling never run simultaneously, and long-established technology with broad service support. It’s an excellent choice for most homes and offers flexibility in choosing efficiency levels for each component independently.

Heat Pump System: Year-Round Comfort from One Unit

Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling in a single outdoor unit, making them an efficient all-in-one solution. In summer, they cool your home exactly like an air conditioner. In winter, they extract heat from outdoor air and move it inside,yes, even when it’s cold outside. Modern heat pumps work efficiently down to very low temperatures and can significantly reduce energy costs compared to traditional systems. Benefits include lower operating costs than electric resistance heating, highly efficient cooling in summer, simplified maintenance with one outdoor unit, environmental benefits from all-electric operation, and potential eligibility for enhanced utility rebates. Heat pumps make excellent sense if you want a single system for year-round comfort, are replacing both heating and cooling equipment, prefer electric heating without high costs, or are building new and want modern efficiency.

Dual Fuel System: Best of Both Worlds

A dual fuel system combines a heat pump with a gas furnace backup. The heat pump handles the majority of heating and all cooling. When outdoor temperatures drop to a point where the heat pump’s efficiency declines, the system automatically switches to the gas furnace. This configuration delivers maximum efficiency and lower utility bills year-round, reliable backup heating during extreme cold, optimized operation based on outdoor temperature and fuel costs, and reduced wear on both systems by alternating operation. While dual fuel systems have higher upfront costs, they offer the lowest long-term operating expenses for homes with access to both electricity and natural gas.

Ductless Mini-Split Systems: Targeted Comfort

For homes without existing ductwork, room additions, or areas with specific comfort needs, ductless mini-split systems offer flexible, efficient heating and cooling. These systems use small indoor units mounted on walls or ceilings connected to an outdoor compressor. Benefits include no ductwork required,ideal for older homes or additions, independent temperature control for each zone or room, high efficiency with no duct losses, quiet operation and minimal visual impact, and ability to heat and cool simultaneously in different zones. Ductless systems work well for home additions or converted spaces, older homes without ductwork, supplemental comfort in problem areas, multi-generational homes with varying comfort preferences, or spaces above garages or bonus rooms.
