Heating and Air Conditioning Replacement in Houston, TX
At BVS, we work with all makes and models of heating and cooling systems, ensuring you get the perfect upgrade for your needs. From selecting the right unit to expert installation, we guide you through every step of the process.
Central Air Conditioner Replacement
Most central air conditioners have a lifespan of about 10–15 years, but the real question isn’t just how long it lasts—it’s how well it’s performing. As air conditioners age, you may notice higher energy bills, poor cooling, or more. When replacing your AC, look for a model with a high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio). Think of SEER like miles per gallon for your car—the higher the number, the more you save on energy costs. Modern systems also come with features like quieter fans and advanced filtration for better indoor air quality.
AC Compressor Replacement
The AC compressor is like the heart of your cooling system—it pumps refrigerant through the unit, making sure your home stays cool and comfortable. Over time, issues like electrical malfunctions, refrigerant leaks, or overheating can cause the compressor to fail. Common signs include your system not cooling properly, loud banging or humming noises, or the unit refusing to start. Replacing the compressor can often restore your AC’s performance, but if your system is older or inefficient, upgrading the entire unit might be a smarter investment.
Furnace Replacement
Furnaces work hard to keep your home warm, but after 15 to 20 years, they start to lose their edge. Rising heating bills, strange smells, or unsettling noises are all signs your system might be nearing the end. Modern furnaces with higher AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) ratings convert more fuel into heat, wasting less energy and saving you money. Upgrading to a new furnace ensures reliable warmth and spares you the hassle of ongoing repairs. Plus, you’ll enjoy better performance and improved energy efficiency for years to come.
Ductless Mini Split Replacement
A ductless mini split can keep your home comfortable for 15 to 20 years when it’s well cared for, but even the best systems don’t last forever. These systems are all about precision—refrigerant levels, electrical connections, and airflow have to be spot on. A DIY ductless mini split installation can lead to costly mistakes or even void the warranty. Having a professional replace your mini split means a better performance and a longer lifespan for your Houston home’s heating and cooling system.
Heat Pump Replacement
A heat pump should keep your home cozy in winter and cool in summer for about 10 to 15 years, but all systems have their limits. If yours isn’t switching modes easily, seems to run all the time, or your energy bills are creeping up, it’s likely time for an upgrade. Modern heat pumps are far more efficient, which means you’ll see the difference in both comfort and cost. Look for a high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) for cooling efficiency and HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) for heating.
