Your Jacksonville Heat Pump Solution

Heat pumps are an excellent choice for homes in Jacksonville and the surrounding areas. Unlike traditional furnaces and air conditioners, a single heat pump unit can both heat and cool your home efficiently. They work by transferring heat – moving it indoors during cooler months and outdoors during warmer months. This makes them particularly energy-efficient in Florida's mild winters and powerful enough to handle our summer heat and humidity, delivering consistent comfort while potentially lowering your energy bills. At Cool Cats Heating and Cooling, we specialize in optimizing heat pump performance specifically for the Jacksonville climate.

Repair or Replace Your Heat Pump? Making the Right Choice

Deciding whether to repair an aging heat pump or invest in a new one can be tough. Consider these factors:

  •  Age: Heat pumps typically last 10-15 years. If yours is nearing this age, replacement might be more cost-effective long-term.
  •  Repair Frequency & Cost: Are repairs becoming frequent and expensive? If a repair costs 30-50% of a new system, replacement is often the smarter investment.
  •  Efficiency: Newer models offer significantly higher energy efficiency (SEER/HSPF ratings), leading to lower monthly bills.
  •  Performance: Is your current system struggling to keep your home comfortable?

Our technicians can assess your current unit and provide honest advice to help you make the best decision for your home and budget.

Why Choose a Heat Pump for Your Jacksonville Home?

  •  Energy Efficiency: Heat pumps move heat rather than generating it (like furnaces), using less energy, especially during Jacksonville's milder winters.
  •  Year-Round Comfort: One system provides both reliable heating and powerful cooling.
  •  Lower Energy Bills: Reduced energy consumption translates directly into savings.
  •  Improved Air Quality: Paired with good filtration, heat pumps circulate air, helping to reduce allergens and pollutants.
  •  Dehumidification: Effectively removes humidity during Jacksonville's muggy summers.
  •  Environmentally Friendlier: Uses electricity efficiently and avoids direct fossil fuel combustion in your home.

Essential Heat Pump Maintenance: Protect Your Investment

Regular maintenance is key to keeping your heat pump running efficiently, preventing unexpected breakdowns, and maximizing its lifespan. Simple homeowner tasks like changing air filters regularly and keeping the outdoor unit clear of debris are important.

For comprehensive care, schedule professional tune-ups twice a year (spring for cooling, fall for heating) with Cool Cats Heating and Cooling. Our maintenance visits include thorough inspections, cleaning, lubrication, and adjustments to ensure peak performance and safety.

I literally would give 10 stars if I could this company is absolutely amazing. Aaron and his partner Curtis came out to my house same day diagnosed my issue changed out a small part all within an hour or two and my ac is running perfectly. I had another AC company come out before them who tried to scare me into buying a new unit. I appreciate Cool Catz so much for their honestly and good work! Highly recommend!
