A heat pump does the job of a furnace and an air conditioner in one system, pulling heat in during winter and pushing it out in summer. For a lot of Western Slope homes, it's the most efficient way to stay comfortable year-round.
Snipps Heating & Air Conditioning has been installing and servicing heat pumps across Montrose and the Western Slope for nearly 30 years. Our NATE-certified technicians help you decide if a heat pump is right for your home, size it correctly, and install it to run efficiently for years.

When you put in a heat pump with us, here's what you get:
A single heat pump keeps your home warm in winter and cool in summer, so there's one system to run and maintain instead of two.
Heat pumps move heat rather than burn fuel to make it, so most homeowners spend less to stay comfortable than with older systems.
Our NATE-certified technicians size your heat pump to your home and our climate and install it to code, so it performs the way it should.
New equipment carries a factory warranty, and we back our own work with a 1-year installation warranty.
For the right home, a heat pump is one of the most efficient ways to handle both heating and cooling, and we'll tell you honestly if it's a good fit for yours.

When you're considering a heat pump, here's how we do it:
We look at your home's size, layout, insulation, and how it's heated and cooled now to see whether a heat pump is the right fit.
We walk you through your heat pump options and what each will cost to run, with a free, no-pressure estimate.
Our NATE-certified technicians install and set up your heat pump properly, so it heats and cools efficiently from day one.
Before we leave, we confirm the system is heating and cooling properly, running safely, and dialed in for your home.
We explain how to run and maintain your heat pump, and back the work with our 1-year installation warranty.

Instead of burning fuel, a heat pump moves heat, pulling warmth from outside air into your home in winter, and reversing to pull heat out and cool your home in summer. One system handles both.

Modern cold-climate heat pumps perform well in low temperatures, and many Western Slope homes pair one with backup heat for the coldest stretches. We'll assess your home and recommend the right setup.

In many homes, yes. One heat pump can handle both heating and cooling. In some cases it works best alongside a backup heat source. We'll tell you honestly what makes sense for your home.

For most homes, yes. Because a heat pump moves heat instead of generating it, it's typically more efficient than older heating and cooling equipment, so many homeowners spend less to stay comfortable.


We base it on your home's size, layout, insulation, and our climate, not just a rule of thumb. Proper sizing means even comfort and efficient operation instead of a system that's oversized or underpowered.
