Heat Pump, Furnace & AC Installation in Des Moines
Des Moines is about fifteen minutes north of our Federal Way headquarters on SR-509 or I-5 — close enough that the marina is a regular lunch stop for our South Sound crews. We install heat pumps, furnaces, air conditioning, and ductless systems from the Marina District and the bluffs along Marine View Drive to North Hill, Zenith, Woodmont, Redondo, and the Pacific Ridge and Midway neighborhoods along Pacific Highway.
Most of Des Moines was built between 1950 and 1980: ramblers and split-levels on the bluff with electric baseboard or a gas furnace on its third replacement, view homes above the water, and townhomes and condos added around the marina and downtown over the past twenty years. Two local details shape almost every proposal here. First, salt air — homes within a few blocks of the water get outdoor units with factory anti-corrosion coil coatings, stainless hardware, and a placement that keeps the condenser out of the direct sea breeze. Second, the flight path — many homes under the Sea-Tac approach received sound-insulation packages from the Port of Seattle years ago, and those tighter windows and doors change how we size equipment and how we handle ventilation.
Des Moines is Puget Sound Energy territory for electricity and natural gas. PSE pays heat pump rebates when a heat pump replaces electric resistance heat — baseboard, wall heaters, or an electric furnace — which describes a lot of bluff-side ramblers here. Homes heating with gas do not qualify for that PSE heat pump rebate; income-qualified households may qualify for Washington’s Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEAR) program instead. We confirm which applies before the numbers go in your proposal, and we file the paperwork. Financing is available on the install whichever rebate path applies, and the terms are confirmed at the free estimate.
Housing stock we know
Bluff-side 1950s–70s ramblers and split-levels on electric baseboard or aging gas furnaces, view homes along Marine View Drive, marina-area townhomes and condos, and Pacific Ridge and Midway homes near the light rail corridor.
Permits: City of Des Moines
The Des Moines Building Division issues the mechanical permit and runs its own electrical permitting and inspections, so both permits for a heat pump go through the same counter. We pull both, schedule the inspections, and hand you the closed permits.
Utilities: Puget Sound Energy
Electricity and natural gas are both PSE. PSE heat pump rebates apply to homes replacing electric resistance heat; gas-heated homes may instead qualify for Washington’s HEAR program if income-eligible. We confirm eligibility for your address and file the forms.
