Residential Heat Pump Services
Heat pumps are a great way to implement energy efficiency in your Washington home. They take the place of furnaces and air conditioners by providing both heat and cool air whenever needed.
Our heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) experts possess high levels of experience and knowledge to install, replace, repair, and maintain your home’s heat pump. If you are considering a heat pump new installation or replacement, or if you are looking for repairs or maintenance, you will not find more qualified and reliable professionals than you will at Foss Heating & Cooling here in Burlington, WA, and its surrounding areas.
No matter what type of residential heat pumps you are contemplating, our experts live up to our reputation.
How Are Heat Pumps Different?
Electric heat pumps offer an energy-efficient alternative to furnaces and air conditioners. They work differently than more traditional heating and cooling systems.
Heat pumps take heat from the outdoors and transfer it into your home when our Washington outdoor temperatures dip. Then during the warmer season, they move the heat from inside your home outdoors.
Because they transfer heat from one location to another instead of creating heat, heat pumps are very energy efficient, costing you much less in energy than conventional HVAC systems that burn fossil fuels to generate heat.
Heat Pump Benefits
Energy efficiency, which saves you money year-round, is just one of the multiple benefits heat pumps offer. If you don’t have a heat pump in your home, now may be the time. Our heat pump installation experts will take care of the service for you as well as give you the advice needed to reduce your energy consumption and lower your home’s energy bills.
Another benefit is the positive impact a heat pump can have on your home’s indoor air quality (IAQ). Since a heat pump is simply transferring heat instead of creating it with fossil fuels, it does not contribute to poor indoor air quality.
At Foss Heating & Cooling, our home comfort specialists only work with the industry’s leading systems and materials, so you can rest assured your heat pump will keep you comfortable for years.

“For a system as expensive as a new Heat Pump I needed multiple quotes. Tim was the most knowledgeable and Foss the most professional of all the companies I contacted. The install team of Mike, Pete, Vlad, Kyle and Amelia were great and did a quality job that exceeded my expectations. They were meticulous, courteous and hard-working. Andre, our fire-up technician, wrapped things up with a very thorough inspection, start-up and hand-off. The team at Foss knows what they're doing and this shows in every interaction I've had with them.”
“I’m a general contractor. I’ve had people work for me in the past and the guys on site exceeded our expectations a hundred fold. They were courteous, they answered our questions. How they work said that they care about us. Josh, he was in the house drilling a hole in the sheet rock and my wife had some knick knacks right below them and he said, and I need to cover those up or I’m going to get dust all over them. It’s things like that that they paid attention to and really impressed us.”
Andre not only showed up on time but was friendly and personable. He invited me to tag along with him to learn more about the system. First he disconnected the outside unit from power and opened the electronics compartment. He said he had guessed the problem might be the capacitor. He was right — it looked a little swollen. I couldn’t tell, but I’m not a technician.
Andre replaced the capacitor and continued with analysis of the system finding a failing scrubber (also replaced).
Andre showed me some mechanisms on the heat pump and educated me on what exactly the capacitor does. His invitation to have me follow along tells me of his confidence in his own knowledge of how the system works and how to fix it. This is important.
Andre continued with testing and maintenance (including a flush of the hot water heater and vacuuming the air intake).
The heat pump is working fine now and we are scheduled for our next maintenance in December. Our house faces East and has windows all along that wall so it turns into a greenhouse on sunny days. The heat pump keeps it comfortable during those times.
Once again, Andre was professional, competent and fun to talk to. This has been our experience with all of our dealings with Foss.
Thank you to Andre and all the staff in support.
By the way, Foss’s communication on appointments is excellent.
Thanks again.
“Michael came out to do the first maintenance on a duel fuel HVAC system that FOSS installed last year. He was very professional, knowledgable and personable, and even stayed late on a Friday afternoon to install an air scrubber that was not part of the original plan. I had been thinking about one recently, and he provided a lot of information, and gave me time to do my research online while he did his maintenance. Since he had an ozone-free model in the truck, he just installed it then and there. And cheerfully too, esp at 5 PM on a Friday. Very excellent service”

“The first annual check up on my heat pump. Michael MacLachian was the service technician that arrived to do the work. Very involved and thorough going through the equipment inside and out, replacing the filter, even checking the outside fan and cage to make sure all was clean and in good working order. I was very pleased with Michael, how efficiently and professionally he did his job. Just like the crew that did the installation a year ago. All hard workers, no cutting corners, quality workmanship, equipment and product. Would always recommend Foss, he hires the best! That is why when the inspector came to check the installation last fall, he said "he never worries about Foss workers not doing top quality work"”
