Transforming Comfort: A Heat Pump Upgrade

At Best Owner Direct HVAC, we take immense pride in improving the comfort and efficiency of homes throughout Cornelius, OR. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with a client, Michael Gutmann, who sought our expertise for upgrading his older gas furnace to a modern heat pump system. This project not only enhanced their home's heating and cooling but also showcased our commitment to exceptional service and quality.

The Challenge: An Outdated Heating System

Michael reached out to us feeling the limitations of his existing gas furnace, especially regarding energy efficiency and the lack of central air conditioning. With the rising energy costs and increasing need for a reliable cooling solution, he wanted to explore a better option. It became clear that upgrading to a heat pump would provide the dual benefits of efficient heating and cooling, which were essential for his 2400 sqft home built in 1937, notably with contemporary insulation and new windows already installed.

Our Solution: A Heat Pump Installation

Our team quickly got to work on providing a competitive and affordable quote for the heat pump installation. We ensured meticulous planning and execution, emphasizing the system's capacity to deliver optimal performance. On the day of installation, we replaced the outdated furnace and installed the new heat pump system, which not only met but exceeded Michael's expectations.

One key factor in the success of this project was our team's ability to address the installation's specifics, ensuring proper hookup and operational efficiency. After our installation, a PGE heat pump engineer inspected our work and commented on how well everything had been executed, confirming our commitment to quality.

Overcoming Hurdles

During the post-installation period, a minor leak was detected in the interior water pump. Michael called us, and we were at his home the same day, ready to rectify the issue. This responsiveness is what we stand for—being there for our clients when they need us the most. Once the issue was resolved, the system began working flawlessly, reinforcing our dedication to outstanding customer care.

The Result: Enhanced Comfort and Savings

Michael was truly pleased with the performance of his new heat pump. He noted the remarkable efficiency of the system, stating, "With a 3600w solar array, we paid zero for the AC this past summer." The performance during colder months has similarly impressed him, as the cost remained reasonable even when auxiliary heating coils were activated.

His feedback showcases not just a successful installation but also how our work has significantly enhanced his home's comfort and energy efficiency.

"To make a long story short, I’m referring BOD to friends and neighbors as a great HVAC/heat pump installer. And that’s probably the best review one can make." - Michael Gutmann --- Homeowner
