CountBricks New Heat Pump Dallas Guide for Homeowners

Head of Sales

Why Dallas Homeowners Are Upgrading to a New Heat Pump

The North Texas climate puts every HVAC system through scorching summers, sudden cold snaps, and plenty of pollen-heavy spring days. That big weather swing is why many Dallas homeowners are swapping outdated condensers and electric furnaces for a high-efficiency heat pump. A new heat pump delivers year-round comfort while trimming energy bills up to 40 percent. When paired with CountBricks AI estimating, the upgrade becomes faster, clearer, and far less stressful.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does replacement take?

Most residential swaps finish in one day. Complex ductwork adjustments may extend to two days.

Do I need a new thermostat?

Modern heat pumps operate best with smart thermostats. CountBricks includes a compatible model in every proposal and programs it before hand-off.

What about warranty coverage?

All equipment carries a 10-year manufacturer warranty when registered within 60 days. CountBricks files registration on the homeowner’s behalf and provides digital copies in your account.

Five Pro Tips for Maximizing Heat Pump Performance

• Keep outdoor coils clear of leaves and lawn debris to protect efficiency

• Change 4-inch filters every 90 days—or monthly if pets are present

• Schedule a spring and fall tune-up through CountBricks.com/maintenance

• Use ceiling fans to circulate conditioned air and reduce runtime

• Set humidity to 45-50 percent to enhance comfort without lowering thermostat settings

Case Study: Oak Cliff Bungalow Heat Pump Success

When the Martinez family bought their 1930s Oak Cliff bungalow, the original gas furnace struggled against uninsulated walls. CountBricks performed a virtual tour, imported the aged PDF floorplan, and generated a three-option proposal in 14 minutes. The chosen 2-ton variable-speed heat pump cost $8,450 installed and qualified for a $900 utility rebate.

What Made the Project Shine

• Zero change orders—the AI takeoff caught a cramped closet clearance issue before demo day

• Same-day permit—CountBricks auto-filled Dallas mechanical forms, cutting the usual wait from three days to one hour

• 32 percent lower energy bill—the first three months of utility statements confirmed the projected savings
