Your employees work better when they’re comfortable. Your customers stay longer when the temperature’s right. And you sleep better knowing your energy bills aren’t eating into profits every month.
Commercial heat pumps deliver both heating and cooling from a single system, using up to 50% less energy than traditional HVAC equipment. That means predictable utility costs and more money staying in your business instead of going to the power company.
When Texas weather swings from scorching summers to unpredictable winter freezes, you need equipment that handles both extremes without breaking down. Modern commercial heat pump systems are built for reliability, designed specifically for the demanding climate conditions we face here in South Texas.
We’ve been solving HVAC problems for commercial clients across the San Antonio metro area since day one. We’re veteran-owned, which means we understand the value of getting things done right the first time.
Our certified technicians know Von Ormy’s unique climate challenges. From the humid summers that test every cooling system to those unexpected cold snaps that catch businesses off guard, we’ve seen it all and know how to prepare your building for whatever weather comes next.
We serve the entire Von Ormy area, including businesses along I-35 and throughout the greater San Antonio region. When you call us, you’re working with a local team that understands your market and your needs.
We start with a thorough assessment of your building’s heating and cooling needs. Our technicians evaluate your current system, measure your space, and calculate the right size and type of heat pump for optimal performance and efficiency.
Next comes professional installation using manufacturer-approved methods and materials. We handle all permits, coordinate with local inspectors, and ensure your new system meets all commercial building codes. Our team works efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily operations.
After installation, we test every component and walk you through your new system’s operation. We’ll set up a maintenance schedule that keeps your heat pump running at peak efficiency and help you understand what to expect from your investment. You’ll have our 24/7 emergency number for any urgent issues that might arise.

Your commercial heat pump installation includes professional sizing calculations, permit handling, and code-compliant installation. We work with all major brands and can recommend the best system for your specific building type and usage patterns.
Von Ormy businesses face unique challenges with our climate. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees, putting enormous strain on cooling systems. Winter weather can be unpredictable, with temperatures dropping unexpectedly. Your heat pump needs to handle both extremes reliably.
We include comprehensive system testing, employee training on basic operation, and a detailed maintenance plan customized for your business schedule. Our ongoing support means you’re never dealing with HVAC problems alone. Regular maintenance visits keep your system running efficiently and help prevent costly breakdowns during peak seasons.
Most Von Ormy businesses see energy savings of 30-50% after switching to modern commercial heat pump systems. The exact savings depend on your building size, current equipment efficiency, and usage patterns.
Heat pumps work by moving heat rather than generating it, which makes them significantly more efficient than traditional heating and cooling systems. During our mild winters, they can operate at 300-400% efficiency compared to gas furnaces that max out around 95% efficiency.
Your savings will be most noticeable during shoulder seasons when the heat pump can maintain comfortable temperatures with minimal energy use. Even during peak summer months, modern heat pump technology delivers better efficiency than older commercial AC units.
Commercial heat pump sizing depends on several factors including square footage, ceiling height, insulation quality, window placement, and occupancy levels. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer, which is why proper load calculations are essential.
We perform detailed assessments that account for your building’s specific characteristics and usage patterns. A restaurant kitchen requires different capacity than an office space of the same size. Retail stores with large windows and frequent door openings have different needs than warehouses.
Oversized systems waste energy and provide poor humidity control. Undersized systems struggle to maintain comfort and wear out faster. Our technicians use industry-standard calculation methods to ensure your heat pump is properly matched to your building’s actual needs.
Well-maintained commercial heat pumps typically last 15-19 years in Texas climate conditions, with air-to-air systems averaging 15 years and water-to-air systems lasting up to 19 years. Regular maintenance is the key to reaching or exceeding these lifespans.
Texas heat puts extra stress on cooling components, but modern commercial heat pumps are designed for our climate. Quality systems from manufacturers like Carrier, Trane, and Lennox are built to handle sustained high-temperature operation.
The most important factor in system longevity is consistent professional maintenance. Quarterly service visits during peak seasons, along with annual comprehensive inspections, keep your heat pump running efficiently and help identify potential problems before they cause expensive failures.
Modern commercial heat pumps are designed to provide reliable heating even when temperatures drop into the 20s or lower. Cold-climate heat pump technology has advanced significantly, with many systems maintaining full heating capacity down to 5 degrees Fahrenheit.
During extreme cold events, heat pumps may require backup heating assistance, but this is typically needed only a few days per year in the Von Ormy area. Most systems include electric resistance heating elements that automatically activate when needed.
The key is selecting the right heat pump technology for our climate. We recommend systems specifically rated for Texas weather conditions, with proven performance data for our temperature ranges. This ensures reliable operation during those unpredictable winter weather events.
Commercial heat pumps need quarterly professional maintenance during peak seasons and comprehensive annual inspections. Basic maintenance includes filter changes, coil cleaning, refrigerant level checks, and electrical connection inspections.
Your facility team can handle some routine tasks like changing filters monthly and keeping outdoor units clear of debris. However, refrigerant work, electrical diagnostics, and detailed system performance analysis require certified technicians with proper equipment.
We create customized maintenance schedules based on your system type, building usage, and operating environment. High-use facilities like restaurants or retail stores may need more frequent service than office buildings. Regular maintenance prevents most emergency breakdowns and keeps your system running at peak efficiency.
Most commercial heat pump installations take 1-3 days depending on system complexity and building requirements. Simple rooftop unit replacements can often be completed in a single day, while larger custom systems may require additional time.
We coordinate with local permitting offices to minimize delays and can often work around your business hours to reduce operational disruption. For restaurants and retail businesses, we can schedule installation during slow periods or closed days.
Emergency replacement situations get priority scheduling. When your current system fails during peak season, we understand that every hour of downtime costs you money. Our team carries common replacement parts and can often provide temporary solutions while permanent equipment is being installed.
