Upgrade to a High-Efficiency Heat Pump Built for Northern Virginia
When your system is aging, unreliable, or no longer keeping up with the seasons, Dave’s Heating & Air is here to help you choose and install the right replacement.
When It’s Time for a New Heat Pump, You Can Feel the Difference
Heat pumps work harder than almost any other system in your home. They heat and cool, run nearly year-round, and face the full range of Northern Virginia weather. Over time, performance fades — sometimes slowly, sometimes all at once.
Maybe your home never feels comfortable anymore. Maybe the energy bills climb each month. Maybe the repairs are becoming too frequent.
Whatever the reason, when your heat pump struggles, it affects your home in every season.
A replacement doesn’t just fix today’s problem — it restores comfort, lowers energy waste, and gives your home a fresh start.
What You Get With a New Heat Pump Installed by Dave’s
Replacing a heat pump is more than swapping equipment. It’s about selecting the right system, sizing it correctly, and installing it with precision so you get the efficiency and lifespan you’re paying for.
With Dave’s, your installation includes:
- A proper load calculation to ensure the system is neither oversized nor undersized
- Recommendations tailored to your home, not a one-size-fits-all sales pitch
- Professional installation from trained, licensed technicians
- Clean work and careful setup to protect your home
- A full performance check so your new system runs at peak efficiency from day one
High-Efficiency Options for Every Home
Today’s heat pumps provide incredible efficiency — especially inverter-driven, variable-speed, and cold-climate models designed to handle both summer heat and chilly winter nights.
We install a variety of trusted brands, including Carrier, Trane, Mitsubishi, Lennox, Goodman, and Rheem.
Whether you want maximum efficiency, quiet comfort, improved airflow, or a budget-friendly upgrade, we’ll help you compare your options and choose the right fit.
Honest Guidance: Repair or Replace?
We don’t believe in pushing replacements you don’t need.
Here’s when we typically recommend a new heat pump:
Your system is 12–15+ years old
Repairs are becoming frequent or costly
The compressor is failing
Energy bills have climbed and efficiency has dropped
The system struggles to maintain temperature
Parts are no longer available or out of warranty
If a repair is still a good option, we’ll tell you. If replacement makes more sense, we’ll help you understand why — clearly and without pressure.
