Heat pumps are one of the most versatile and energy-efficient HVAC solutions available, providing both cooling and heating from a single system. At Sunnyside AC, we specialize in heat pump installation, repair, and replacement services throughout South Florida. Our certified technicians have over 20 years of experience working with all major heat pump brands and understand the unique advantages these systems offer in our moderate climate. Unlike traditional AC systems that only cool, heat pumps transfer heat in both directions—removing heat from your home in summer for cooling, and extracting heat from outdoor air to warm your home in winter. This makes them exceptionally efficient, using 50-75% less energy than electric resistance heating. While South Florida doesn't experience extreme cold, heat pumps excel in our mild winters (rarely below 40°F), providing comfortable, cost-effective heating on those occasional chilly nights without requiring a separate furnace. We install and service all major heat pump brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, American Standard, Bryant, Daikin, and Mitsubishi. Modern heat pumps achieve SEER ratings of 16-22 for cooling and HSPF ratings of 8.5-13 for heating, delivering exceptional year-round energy efficiency. Many South Florida homeowners save 30-40% on their annual HVAC energy costs by switching to a high-efficiency heat pump system. Our heat pump services include new installations with complete load calculations and sizing, system replacements for aging or inefficient units, repairs for all makes and models, seasonal maintenance and tune-ups, refrigerant leak detection and repair, compressor and reversing valve diagnostics, thermostat upgrades including smart thermostats, and emergency 24/7 service. We handle all permits and ensure every installation meets manufacturer specifications and Florida building codes. Heat pumps are ideal for South Florida homes because they provide efficient cooling during our long hot season (March-November) and energy-efficient heating during brief cold snaps (December-February). They're especially cost-effective if you currently use electric resistance heat or have eliminated gas service. We offer free consultations to determine if a heat pump is right for your home, with flexible financing options and help accessing available rebates and tax credits for qualifying high-efficiency systems.
