Heating Unit Installation in Phoenix and Nearby Areas
While the Phoenix area is known for scorching hot summers and is a prime market for air conditioning services for about three quarters of the year, it can still get cold here. Certain evenings in the winter can have temperatures in the low 30s and frost. Heating is an essential element of the HVAC system for comfortable year-round indoor temperatures. It is also a required element by law (along with air conditioning in AZ) for a residential property to be considered livable.
Most homes in Phoenix will either need a natural gas furnace or an electric heat pump. Johnson Power and Air has the expertise to install either kind of system. Approximately 33% of the homes in the Phoenix Metro area use natural gas for their heating needs. While approximately 60% of the homes use electricity to heat. Oftentimes homes have a natural gas supply since natural gas may also be used for the water heater, some stoves, and even a home generator. By the way, since Johnson Power and Air is also an electrician service, we can install a home generator if you desire to have an alternate power supply in the case that power becomes unavailable from your local municipality.
Heating unit installation might be a service you are seeking if you have a new building under construction or if you need to replace an old, non-functioning heating unit. Of course the unit itself is not the only part of a complete heating system, and if you have a new build or building addon then you might need additional parts of the heating system installed or entire heating system installation. By the way, having new builds and property renovations may also mean that you need whole home wiring or electrical upgrades, which Johnson Power and Air can also provide as both an HVAC service and an electrician service.
Here are the parts of a home heating system:
Gas Furnace
A gas furnace is a heating system that burns natural gas or propane to generate heat.
It works by:
- Ignition – The gas valve opens, and a burner ignites the gas.
- Heat Exchanger – The flames heat up a metal heat exchanger, which then transfers heat to the air.
- Blower Fan – A blower pushes the warmed air through the ductwork into the home.
- Exhaust System – Combustion gases, including carbon monoxide, are vented safely outside through a flue.
Gas furnaces are efficient and provide strong, fast heating, making them great for colder climates where temperatures drop below freezing.
Heat Pump
A heat pump is an all-in-one heating and cooling system that moves heat instead of generating it. It works like an air conditioner but in reverse during the winter.
The process:
- Absorbing heat – The outdoor unit pulls heat from the outside air (even when its cold).
- Compression – The refrigerant compresses to increase its temperature.
- Indoor Coil – The heat is transferred inside via coils and distributed using a blower fan.
- Reversing Valve – In summer, it switches to cooling mode, working just like an AC.
Heat pumps are highly efficient because they don’t burn fuel but instead transfer heat. However, they are less effective in extremely cold climates unless paired with an auxiliary electric heat.
Ductwork
Ductwork is the system of tubes, vents, and registers that distribute heated or cooled air throughout a home or building. It ensures proper airflow, keeping indoor temperatures comfortable and balanced.
The main functions of ductwork include:
- Air Distribution – Delivers warm or cool air from the HVAC system to different rooms.
- Air Return – Brings air back to the HVAC system for reconditioning.
- Ventilation – Helps maintain indoor air quality by circulating fresh air.
- Efficiency – Ensures even airflow, reducing energy waste and improving comfort.
Properly designed and maintained ductwork improves energy efficiency, comfort, and air quality. Regular inspections, sealing leaks, and ensuring proper sizing go a long way in reducing costs and extending the life of your HVAC system. As an HVAC contractor Johnson Power and Air can install ducts and vents as part of a whole system installation or to supplement living space addons. Learn more about Ventilation Services.
Thermostat (Including Smart Thermostat Installation)
The thermostat is the control center for the HVAC system. This is where the resident selects their desired temperature for the room. The thermostat senses the current temperature and enables the system to work until the desired temperature is met, then the system will shut off automatically. Smart Thermostats are highly recommended for improved temperature monitoring and energy efficiency features. A standard thermostat is included with any system installation and if you chose to have a smart thermostat installed then we can include it in the bid or install one that you purchase on your own from a retailer.
