Kinsey Plumbing, Heating & Air installs heat pumps for Lakeway homeowners who want one efficient system to handle both summer cooling and winter heating. Whether you are replacing an aging heat pump, retiring an older air conditioner and furnace pair, or adding comfort to a part of the house that never felt right, the goal is equipment that fits your home and runs reliably for years.
Call us if your current heat pump needs repairs every season, the system struggles to heat the house during a cold snap and leans hard on backup heat, the unit still uses an older refrigerant that has become costly to service, your winter electric bills have crept up year after year, one floor or wing never gets as comfortable as the rest, you are planning to replace a separate AC and furnace and want to compare options, a technician has told you the compressor is failing, or a room addition needs heating and cooling the current equipment cannot supply.
Our licensed HVAC technicians quote every installation at a flat price in writing, replacement estimates are free, and the finished work carries warranties stronger than the industry standard. Write to us to talk through your options, or request an estimate online with Schedule Now.

A heat pump has to be sized for both seasons, so we start by understanding the house. That means measuring the space each system serves, checking insulation, windows, and sun exposure, inspecting the existing ductwork, and talking with you about rooms that run hot or cold today. With that information, we recommend a capacity and efficiency level that fits your home rather than the largest unit available. Ductless mini-splits can also be an option for an addition or a single troublesome area, and we will tell you when they make more sense than a ducted system.
You receive a written proposal with a flat price and clear equipment choices. If your existing system is still in decent shape and a repair would serve you well, we say so before you commit to new equipment. When replacement is the better investment, we explain why and let you weigh the options at your own pace. On installation day, our team sets the outdoor and indoor equipment, connects refrigerant lines, power, ducts, and controls, configures the defrost and backup heat settings, and tests the system in both heating and cooling before we consider the job finished.
Several local facts shape these projects. Many homes in this area are larger houses built from the 1980s through the 2000s, and plenty run two or more systems, one per floor or wing, so a heat pump may replace just one of them or several over time. Older ductwork may need sealing or changes to work well with new equipment. Central Texas summers that frequently pass 100 degrees put the heaviest demand on cooling capacity, while brief but sharp winter freezes test how well the system heats.
Our heat pump installation services include:
The technician who designs your project oversees the installation and remains your point of contact once the system is running.
A correctly sized and installed heat pump keeps each room it serves comfortable year round from a single piece of equipment. It removes humidity in summer, delivers steady warmth in winter, and relies on backup heat only in the coldest hours. Compared with an aging system, you should see lower energy use across both seasons, fewer service calls, and quieter operation indoors and out. In a multi-system home, a new heat pump on one floor can also take pressure off the equipment serving the rest of the house.
Waiting until an old system dies has its costs. Aging equipment burns more electricity every month it runs, repair bills stack up, and a failure during a heat wave or freeze forces a rushed decision with fewer choices. Planning a replacement while your current system still works lets you compare equipment, schedule the install, and budget for it on your terms.
After the installation, we show you how to use the thermostat, explain what the defrost cycle looks and sounds like so it does not catch you off guard, and go over your warranty coverage. We also share the simple maintenance steps that help a heat pump last, such as keeping the outdoor unit clear and changing filters on schedule. If questions come up in the first few weeks, the same technician is a phone call away.
