Whether you choose a ducted system or a ductless configuration, heat pumps perform well in coastal areas with cool evenings and warm summer days.

What's Included in This Service

Your heat pump installation begins with an assessment of your current HVAC system, electrical infrastructure, and home layout. We evaluate whether your existing ductwork is compatible with a heat pump or if modifications are needed. In Mill Valley, where homes vary widely in age and design, this step ensures the system you choose will perform efficiently and meet your comfort expectations.

Gibbs Heating and Air Conditioning installs ducted or ductless heat pumps depending on your home's specific needs and structure. All installations follow safety standards and local code requirements. We test refrigerant levels, airflow balance, and thermostat response before finishing the installation to ensure your system operates as expected from day one.

You'll also receive guidance on how to use your heat pump efficiently, including seasonal settings and maintenance practices that extend the life of the equipment. Heat pumps are available across Mill Valley and nearby communities, and we encourage homeowners to schedule early to ensure availability.

Key Benefits of This Service

Homeowners considering heat pumps often have questions about how they differ from traditional systems, what efficiency improvements they can expect, and whether their home is a good fit for this type of equipment.

How does a heat pump work differently than a furnace and AC?
A heat pump moves heat rather than generating it, using electricity to transfer warmth into your home during winter and remove it during summer. This makes it more efficient in mild climates like Mill Valley.
Are heat pumps quieter than traditional HVAC systems?
Yes. Heat pumps operate more quietly than older furnace-and-AC combinations, especially ductless models. You'll notice less noise both indoors and outdoors.
Can a heat pump work in homes without ductwork?
Absolutely. Ductless mini-split heat pumps are a great option for homes without existing ducts or for room additions where extending ductwork isn't practical.
Will a heat pump lower my energy bills?
In most cases, yes. Heat pumps are more efficient than traditional systems, especially in climates with mild winters. You'll likely see reduced heating and cooling costs throughout the year in Mill Valley.
How long does heat pump installation take?
Most installations are completed in one to two days, depending on whether we're installing a ducted or ductless system and whether any electrical upgrades are needed.

Heat pumps provide all-in-one heating and cooling with improved efficiency, quieter operation, and better performance in coastal climates. Call Gibbs Heating and Air Conditioning to schedule your in-home evaluation and start planning your Heat Pumps installation in Mill Valley.
