Heat Pump Installation in Kirkland, WA
One system that heats and cools, runs on electricity, and pairs perfectly with solar. The modern standard for Pacific Northwest comfort.
Kirkland splits into two very different heat pump jobs: newer Moss Bay condos that just need a compact, well-placed outdoor unit, and the older homes up in Houghton, Juanita, and Finn Hill, where a heat pump usually replaces an aging furnace-and-AC pair on hilly, view-lot terrain that makes refrigerant line routing part of the plan.
Symptoms we see every week in Kirkland
- Replacing aging gas furnace + AC separately
- Wanting to electrify and cut fossil fuels

Heat Pump Installation in Kirkland: what's different here
Mid-century homes in Houghton, Juanita and Finn Hill sit on hilly view lots, so outdoor units and line sets often have to work around slopes and decks, while Moss Bay condos built since the 1990s have tight mechanical closets. Older Kirkland homes in Houghton and Juanita can take a heat pump, but the ductwork, panel and insulation have to be checked first. We often pair a ducted heat pump with duct sealing, or use ductless heads where the ducts are too small.
Permits and inspections
A new heat pump typically needs a mechanical permit plus an electrical permit for its circuit. Mechanical and plumbing permits in Kirkland go through the City of Kirkland Development Services. When the work needs a permit, we pull it, schedule the inspection and leave you the paperwork.
