Heat Pumps in Sapulpa & the Tulsa Metro
A heat pump cools your home in summer and heats it in winter with one system. We install, repair and maintain heat pumps across Sapulpa and Tulsa, including inverter models built for cold snaps and dual-fuel setups with a gas furnace backup.
One system, two seasons
A heat pump handles both cooling and heating, so you get year-round comfort from one outdoor unit.
Efficient winter heat
Because it moves heat instead of making it, a heat pump can deliver more heat than the electricity it uses in mild weather.
Built for cold snaps
Cold-climate inverter heat pumps keep heating at much lower outdoor temperatures than older models could.
Gas backup option
A dual-fuel system lets your gas furnace take over automatically on the coldest nights.
How a heat pump heats and cools
In summer, a heat pump works just like an air conditioner. It pulls heat out of your home and releases it outside. In winter, it runs in reverse, pulling heat from the outdoor air and moving it inside. Even cold air holds heat a heat pump can use.
Because it moves heat instead of burning fuel to make it, a heat pump can be very efficient in the mild-to-cool weather that makes up much of an Oklahoma winter.
Heat pumps and Oklahoma winters
Older heat pumps lost a lot of capacity as temperatures dropped and leaned on electric backup heat strips, which are expensive to run. Today's inverter heat pumps vary their speed and keep heating well at much lower temperatures. Many cold-climate models are designed to keep heating even when it is in the single digits outside.
During an ice storm or a hard cold snap, every heat pump needs a plan. We size your system with a Manual J load calculation and set up backup heat so your home stays warm when the temperature drops fast.
Dual fuel: heat pump plus gas furnace
If you already have gas at the house, a dual-fuel system can give you the best of both. The heat pump handles cooling and most of your heating. When it gets cold enough outside, the system switches to the gas furnace automatically.
Dual fuel pairs efficient electric heat on mild days with strong gas heat on the coldest nights. It can also make sense when your furnace is still in good shape but your air conditioner needs replacing. We can help you decide if it fits your home.
Heat pump repair and service
We repair heat pumps from all major brands. Common winter calls include units stuck in defrost, outdoor coils covered in ice, reversing valve problems and systems running on backup heat far more than they should.
A little frost on the outdoor coil in winter is normal, and the unit will melt it off during a defrost cycle. A thick block of ice that stays is not. Repairs start with a $95 diagnostic, which is waived when you go ahead with the repair.
Heat Pumps FAQ
Do heat pumps work in Oklahoma winters?
Yes. Most Oklahoma winter days are mild enough for a heat pump to run very efficiently. On the coldest nights, a cold-climate inverter model keeps heating at lower temperatures, and backup heat or a gas furnace can cover the rest. We size and set up the system so you are not left cold during a freeze.
What is a dual-fuel system?
Dual fuel pairs an electric heat pump with a gas furnace. The heat pump cools in summer and heats on mild winter days. When the outdoor temperature drops below a set point, the system switches to gas heat. It is a good fit for homes that already have gas service and want efficiency plus strong heat in a cold snap.
Why does my heat pump blow cool air in winter?
Heat pump air often feels cooler to your hand than furnace air, even when it is heating the house just fine. It also pauses heating briefly during defrost cycles. But if the house is not keeping up, the outdoor unit stays iced over, or your bill spikes from backup heat, something may be wrong. Schedule a diagnostic.
How long do heat pumps last?
A heat pump works year-round, so it gets more run time than an air conditioner. Many last roughly 10 to 15 years with regular maintenance, though climate, installation quality and care all play a part. Spring and fall tune-ups help catch small problems early and keep it running efficiently.
What efficiency should a new heat pump have?
Since 2023, federal standards require new split-system heat pumps to be rated at least 14.3 SEER2 for cooling and 7.5 HSPF2 for heating. Higher-rated inverter models use even less energy. Ask us about current rebate programs from your electric and gas utility (PSO, OG&E or ONG, depending on where you live) too. They change, and we'll check what your system qualifies for.
