Residential HVAC System Installation

Is Your Aging HVAC System Failing?

You know that feeling when your furnace barely keeps the house warm, even though it’s running constantly? Or when your AC gives up during those rare Pacific Northwest heat waves we’ve been getting more of lately? It’s frustrating, and honestly, a little scary when you start thinking about what a full replacement might cost.

But here’s the thing, if you’re dealing with uneven temperatures, skyrocketing energy bills, or that old system making weird noises at 2 AM, you’re probably past the point of simple repairs. Those problems don’t just go away. They get worse, and usually at the worst possible time.

Nobody wants to be without heat in January or without AC during a summer scorcher. And the stress of wondering “will it make it through another season?” gets old fast.

That’s exactly why we started Alpine Mechanical Services. As your local HVAC Contractor, we help Vancouver families get out of that constant worry cycle. We’ve installed hundreds of systems over the years, and trust me, the difference between an old, struggling system and a properly installed new one is night and day. Give us a call at (360) 661-8888 and let’s talk about what’s going on with your system.

We Handle Every Installation Detail

Look, installing an HVAC system isn’t like swapping out a light fixture. There’s load calculations, ductwork considerations, electrical work, permits; it’s a lot. And if any of those steps get rushed or done wrong, you’ll be dealing with problems for years.

I’ve seen too many installations where corners were cut. The system never worked right from day one because nobody took the time to properly size it for the house. Or the ductwork wasn’t sealed correctly, so you’re literally heating or cooling the crawl space instead of your living room.

Here’s how we do things differently: We actually measure your house and calculate exactly what size system you need. Not too big (wastes energy), not too small (can’t keep up). We handle all the permit stuff with Clark County, coordinate inspections, and make sure everything’s done to code.

Plus, we’ll walk you through any rebates or financing options that might help with the cost. When I get Emergency HVAC Repair calls, half the time it’s because someone got a cheap installation that was doomed from the start. You won’t have that problem with us.

Licensed HVAC Experts Protect Your Investment

I’ve been doing this for over 10 years now, and I still go to training every year because the technology keeps evolving. We’re not just some guy with a truck; we’re Factory Authorized American Standard Dealers and Mitsubishi Diamond Dealers. Those certifications don’t just get handed out.

We’ve also got our NATE certification (that’s the gold standard for HVAC techs) and EPA certification for handling refrigerants safely. The Bonneville Power Administration even certified us for heat pump commissioning, which is pretty specialized. All that training matters because when you’re investing this much money, you want it done right the first time.

The Pacific Northwest has its own climate challenges, and we know how to work with them. We’re not installing the same system here that might work great in Arizona or Florida.

Lower Heating & Cooling Bills Start With Efficiency

Here’s what really gets me excited about new HVAC technology; the efficiency improvements are incredible. Sometimes it’s even better than that.

Modern systems are just smarter. Instead of blasting full power then shutting off (like your old system probably does), new variable-speed equipment adjusts to exactly what your house needs. It’s like cruise control for your comfort.

And once you’re not constantly fixing an old system, those repair bills disappear too. Add in the tax credits and utility rebates available right now, and the math gets pretty compelling.

Your comfort improves too; no more hot and cold spots, way quieter operation, better air quality. With regular maintenance through our HVAC Maintenance Plans, a quality system should give you 15-20 years of reliable service. It’s honestly one of the best investments you can make in your home.

Vancouver Families Choose Our Maintenance

We’ve been taking care of families throughout Vancouver, Camas, Washougal, and the surrounding area for years now. People stick with us because we show up when we say we will, we explain what’s going on in plain English, and we don’t try to sell you stuff you don’t need.

I’m proud that we’ve got 5-star reviews on Google, but what really matters to me is that our customers trust us enough to call when they need help. A lot of the families we’ve installed systems for end up signing up for our maintenance service too, because they’ve seen how we work.

Regular maintenance isn’t just about keeping your warranty valid (though it does that). It’s about catching small problems before they become big, expensive ones. And honestly, after investing in a new system, it just makes sense to protect it.
