Your monthly utility bill drops by 30 to 50 percent. Not someday—starting the first full month after installation.
You stop worrying about whether your system can handle another brutal Texas summer or an unexpected cold snap. Heat pumps move heat instead of creating it, which means they use half the energy of traditional systems while delivering consistent comfort year-round.
The temperature in your home stays even throughout the day. No more hot spots in the afternoon or cold rooms in the morning. Just reliable heating and cooling from a single system that’s built specifically for climates like Converse, TX, where summers hit triple digits and winters stay mostly mild with occasional freezes.
Most homeowners see their heat pump installation pay for itself within five to eight years through energy savings alone. Add in federal tax credits up to $2,000 and potential utility rebates, and you’re looking at a faster return than almost any other home improvement you could make.
Texas Air Repair is a veteran-owned company with over 20 years of experience installing heat pumps across Converse, TX and the greater San Antonio area. We’ve been serving this community since before the population boom that brought 50 percent growth to the city.
Our certified technicians know exactly how to size and install heat pump systems for South Texas climate conditions. That matters because a system that’s too large or too small will cost you money every month and wear out faster than it should.
We handle the entire process—permits, inspections, installation, and follow-up—so you’re not coordinating between multiple companies or wondering if something got missed. You get upfront pricing before any work starts, 24/7 emergency service if you ever need it, and a team that’s been doing this long enough to get it right the first time.
First, we come out to assess your home and calculate the exact heating and cooling load. This isn’t a guess—it’s a detailed measurement that accounts for your square footage, insulation, windows, and how your home is oriented. Getting this right means your system runs efficiently instead of working harder than it needs to.
Next, we walk you through equipment options that fit your budget and your home’s requirements. You’ll know exactly what you’re getting, what it costs, and what kind of energy savings to expect. We pull permits and schedule the installation at a time that works for you.
On installation day, our crew removes your old system, installs the new heat pump, connects all electrical and refrigerant lines, and tests everything to make sure it’s running at peak efficiency. Most installations take six to eight hours from start to finish.
Before we leave, we show you how to use your new system and answer any questions you have. You’ll also get information about your warranty coverage and our maintenance programs that keep your system running efficiently for years.

Converse homeowners are sitting on one of the best opportunities in the state for heat pump installation. Texas has more residential heat pumps than any state except Florida—over 2.16 million systems—and that number keeps growing because the technology works exceptionally well in climates with hot summers and mild winters. When cold snaps do hit, modern heat pumps handle them without any issues.
The federal government is backing heat pump adoption with tax credits that put up to $2,000 back in your pocket. Combined with the immediate energy savings you’ll see on your utility bills, there’s never been a better time to make the switch. Most Converse residents qualify for these incentives, and we’ll help you understand exactly what’s available.
Heat pump installation typically runs between $5,000 and $12,000 depending on the size of your home, the efficiency rating you choose, and any modifications needed to your existing ductwork or electrical system.
Higher-efficiency models cost more upfront but save you more money every month. A 16 SEER system might run $6,000 to $8,000, while an 18 or 20 SEER system could be $9,000 to $12,000. The difference shows up in your utility bills—higher SEER ratings mean lower operating costs.
Federal tax credits currently offer up to $2,000 back on qualifying heat pump installations, which brings your actual cost down significantly. Some local utilities also offer rebates for energy-efficient equipment. We provide upfront pricing and help you understand all available incentives before you make a decision. We also offer financing options with 0% interest for qualified buyers, so you can start saving on energy costs immediately instead of waiting until you’ve saved up the full amount.
Yes. Modern heat pumps are designed to work efficiently in temperatures well below what Converse typically experiences during winter cold snaps.
Most quality heat pumps maintain full heating capacity down to 25 degrees Fahrenheit and continue operating effectively even lower than that. Since Converse rarely sees extended periods below freezing, heat pumps are actually an ideal solution for this climate. They excel in the heat—which matters more here—and handle occasional cold weather without any problems.
The confusion about heat pumps and cold weather comes from older technology that struggled below 40 degrees. That’s not the case anymore. Current systems use advanced compressors and refrigerants that extract heat from outdoor air even when it feels freezing to you. If you’re concerned about backup heating during extreme cold, we can discuss hybrid systems that include a supplemental heat source, but most Converse homeowners find that unnecessary given how rarely temperatures drop that low and how briefly they stay there.
Most residential heat pump installations in Converse, TX take between six and eight hours to complete from start to finish.
That includes removing your old system, installing the new heat pump indoor and outdoor units, connecting all electrical wiring and refrigerant lines, testing the system, and walking you through operation. Straightforward replacements where we’re swapping out an existing system usually fall on the shorter end of that range.
If your installation requires electrical upgrades, ductwork modifications, or other structural changes, it might take longer—sometimes extending into a second day. We’ll tell you exactly what to expect during your initial assessment so there are no surprises. Our goal is to complete your installation as quickly as possible while making sure everything is done right. We don’t rush through critical steps like refrigerant charging or airflow balancing just to finish faster, because those details directly affect how efficiently your system runs and how long it lasts.
The right size heat pump for your home depends on a detailed load calculation that accounts for your square footage, insulation levels, window types, ceiling heights, and how your home is oriented to the sun.
A rough rule of thumb is one ton of cooling capacity for every 400 to 600 square feet, but that’s just a starting point. A 1,500-square-foot home might need a 2.5 to 3-ton system, while a 2,500-square-foot home might need a 4 to 5-ton system. But those numbers shift based on your specific home characteristics.
Oversized systems cost more to buy and operate, cycle on and off too frequently, and don’t dehumidify your home properly. Undersized systems run constantly, struggle to maintain comfortable temperatures during extreme weather, and wear out faster. We perform Manual J load calculations on every installation to determine the exact size your home needs. This takes about 30 minutes during our initial visit and ensures your system runs efficiently instead of working harder than necessary. Getting the size right is one of the most important factors in how much money you’ll save and how long your equipment will last.
Yes. We offer financing options including 0% interest plans for qualified buyers, which lets you start saving on energy costs immediately instead of waiting until you’ve saved up the full installation cost.
The monthly payment on financing is often less than what you’ll save on your utility bills, which means your new heat pump essentially pays for itself from day one. For example, if your installation costs $8,000 and you finance it over five years at 0% interest, your payment is around $133 per month. If your energy savings are $100 to $150 per month—which is typical for Converse homeowners replacing older systems—you’re breaking even or coming out ahead right away.
We work with multiple lenders to find financing that fits your situation. The application process is quick, and approval usually happens within minutes. We’ll walk you through all your options during your estimate so you can make a decision based on complete information. Between financing options, federal tax credits, and immediate energy savings, heat pump installation is more affordable than most homeowners expect when they first start looking into it.
Most Converse homeowners see their heating and cooling costs drop by 30 to 50 percent after switching to a heat pump, with the exact savings depending on what system you’re replacing and how you use your HVAC.
If you’re currently heating with electric resistance coils—which over 25% of Texas households still use—your savings will be on the higher end because those systems are expensive to operate. A typical Converse home spending $200 per month on heating and cooling might drop to $100 to $140 per month with a heat pump.
Heat pumps use about half the energy of traditional systems because they move heat instead of generating it. That efficiency advantage shows up every single month on your utility bill. The savings are highest during moderate weather when the heat pump operates at peak efficiency, but you’ll see reduced costs year-round. Track your energy usage for the first few months after installation and you’ll see the difference clearly. We can also provide estimates based on your current energy bills and usage patterns during your initial consultation, so you’ll know what to expect before you commit to installation.
