Air Conditioning

If you are used to living in Beaverton, you know how brutal the summer heat can be. After an afternoon of outdoor work or play, you will be ready to relax in a nice, cool home. A reliable air conditioner may quickly become the most important appliance in your house during those longest days of the year.

Rely on Hybrid Heating & Air to keep you and your family cool throughout the season. Our team of professionals can help match your home’s cooling needs with top-quality air conditioning systems if you are in the market for a new one. Current models provide excellent cooling and improved energy efficiency.

If you are happy with your current air conditioning system, our trained professionals can come out to inspect, tune up, and clean your system before the heat really hits. On the other hand, if you require repair services, give us a call, and we will be happy to send out a professional to fix your air conditioner as quickly as possible.

Not only does your air conditioner keep you and your family comfortably cool in the Oregon dog days of summer, but it will also dehumidify your indoor air. Keeping your home at the correct humidity level can reduce common allergens such as mold and mildew, protect your electronics and appliances from humidity damage, and improve your overall indoor air quality.

Air Ducts

Do you notice some of the rooms in your Beaverton home are either warmer or cooler than others? Do you have a room that never quite reaches the comfortable temperature you want? Is your second floor always a little bit uncomfortable? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you are not alone. These are common issues for homeowners, and in many cases, the problem is caused by air duct, or ductwork, issues.

Our professionals at Hybrid Heating & Air can help you identify ductwork leaks, poor insulation in your ductwork, or other ductwork problems you may be experiencing. Although ducts are a hidden network behind your home’s walls and floors, they can cost you hundreds of dollars in wasted energy every year if they are not operating at their peak performance.

When you call our team, we will come out and inspect your air duct system. Our trained professionals can seal air duct leaks, ensuring your heated or cooled air makes it to all the rooms in your home. In addition, we will identify duct areas that can benefit from additional insulation such as ductwork running through an uninsulated attic. We may recommend different solutions to help you balance your heating and cooling throughout your Oregon home.

If you are ready to increase your comfort level and save some money on your energy bills, call Hybrid Heating & Air at 503-357-5663. Our professionals are ready and waiting to serve you and your family. Request air duct service online today.

Commercial Services

Having reliable commercial heating and cooling is important to a company’s bottom line. It takes a special service provider to understand the unique needs of a commercial operation. Our professionals at Hybrid Heating & Air will listen carefully to your organization’s particular situation and make recommendations that fit your business, time frame, and budget.

Ductless Systems

Have you ever heard of a ductless heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system? Ductless systems provide heating and cooling without forcing air through a network of air ducts in your Beaverton home.

Our professionals at Hybrid Heating & Air suggest considering a ductless system if you are adding a room or providing customized climate control to a particular space in your home. For example, a ductless system would work great in a Oregon sunroom, man cave, bonus room, or home office. They are also a possible solution for keeping one bedroom extra warm for an elderly family member or as supplemental heating or cooling for a rarely used guest room.

One advantage of a ductless system is it requires a very small hole to be drilled through a wall, which makes installation a breeze and energy loss close to nonexistent. In addition, ductless systems are typically quieter and can reduce your energy bills over time if you are losing energy through a duct system.

Though they can be more expensive initially to purchase, in short time you save enough in energy costs to make the difference back. These are perfect if your home needs a system with a small footprint. We can install them most anywhere in your home.

If you are ready to learn more about ductless systems, call Hybrid Heating & Air at 503-357-5663. Our professionals would be happy to share the systems and services we offer. Request ductless system service online today.

Furnaces

Are you ready for the colder weather here in Oregon? Once the days grow short and the nights stretch long, you will want to crank up the heat in your home to make it nice and cozy. A wide range of furnaces from Hybrid Heating & Air can help you accomplish that goal. Whether you are purchasing a new furnace or replacing an old one, there are many factors you should consider before making your decision.

One of the first things you want to consider is what size furnace your Beaverton home requires. If you select a furnace that is too small, you will have inadequate heat in the coldest days of winter. On the other hand, if you select a furnace that is too large, you will be paying for more heat than you actually need.

Unfortunately, selecting the right size of furnace is a little trickier than simply looking at square footage of your home. Our heating experts will take into account the climate, size, construction, and layout of your home in order to recommend the best furnace size.

In addition, be sure to consider the cost of various energy sources and the energy ratings of furnaces. Certain fuels will be less or more expensive at any given time and will impact the environment differently as well. One thing you can be certain of is that a new furnace will be more efficient than an old one.

When you are ready to purchase a new furnace, call Hybrid Heating & Air at 503-357-5663. Our professionals can provide you with all the information you need. Request furnace service online today.

Gas Fireplaces

Residential fireplaces are a great option for you if you love the look, feel, and ambience of flickering flames, yet you value freedom from the mess that a traditional wood fireplace gives you with on a semi-regular basis.

Just like a traditional fireplace, gas fireplaces are a great way to add heat to your living spaces in Oregon. They can be installed in your Beaverton home with very few requirements. All you need is a small amount of wiring, a gas line, and a small metal chimney.

Three main categories of gas fireplaces exist on the residential market. These are log sets, inserts, and built-ins. The use of any one of these three methods is highly dependent on your home setup. Do you have an existing fireplace? Gas or wood? Electric? That will influence your options as will how you want your space to look.

Of special note to consider when you are looking at your gas fireplace options is what your venting options will be. Be sure to keep this in mind as you move forward. Speak with one of our experts about what will work best in your home and particular setup.

When you are ready, call our Hybrid Heating & Air professionals today at 503-357-5663. We are ready and willing to help. Request residential gas fireplace service online .

Geothermal Heat Pumps

Many of us are used to the traditional ways of heating and cooling our homes, but more options exist for the savvy shopper. Residential geothermal heat pumps have been around for a long time, but no one has been talking about them. Yet, investing in geothermal heating and cooling can be one of the smartest decisions you will make in Beaverton.

In a nutshell, geothermal systems exchange heat with the earth itself through a ground heat exchanger. While above ground temperatures are fluctuating, temperatures remain fairly steady and pleasant a few feet down, providing an alternative source of reliable heating and cooling. Depending on the model, a geothermal pump may also provide hot water.

While the initial costs of setting up a geothermal heating system may seem intimidating and higher than other alternatives, geothermal heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems cost much less to run than any other common HVAC system.

In many cases, you can expect to recoup your investment in two to 10 years. You may also qualify for government assistance depending on the programs available in your area. Be sure to consult with professionals in advance to make sure that you take advantage of these opportunities.

Curious to learn more or ready to make the investment in a geothermal system here in Oregon? Our professionals at Hybrid Heating & Air are thoroughly equipped to set up and install geothermal heat pumps according to your needs—give us a call at 503-357-5663.

Heat Pumps

If you are looking for a heating and cooling solution in Oregon, you may want to consider a heat pump. Heat pumps simply move warmer air from outside to inside in the winter and from inside to outside in the summer, providing a comfortable indoor temperature.

Since heat pumps do not actually create their own heat, they are more efficient and cost effective than conventional furnaces and air conditioning systems. In fact, heat pumps may provide the same heating and cooling options at one-quarter the cost.

Our professionals at Hybrid Heating & Air can help you determine whether a heat pump might be right for you. In the past, heat pumps tended to work best in moderate climates; however, new technology has made heat pumps viable in colder climates today as well.

The air-source heat pump is most commonly available, and it moves the heat between your home and outside. Air-source heat pumps require less electricity when compared with baseboard units and furnaces. Some high-efficiency models can also provide better dehumidification capabilities than conventional air conditioners.

Ductless heat pumps, or mini splits, are an alternative type of heat pump for homes without ductwork. Our professionals can talk with you about these if you are interested.

Indoor Air Quality

Everyone needs a breath of fresh air from time to time. In today’s world of super efficient, well-insulated buildings, there may be even a greater need. Although many advantages of modern construction exist, potentially poor indoor air quality can be one disadvantage. Our team at Hybrid Heating & Air is dedicated to ensuring our customers have cleaner indoor air by providing testing and remediation services in Beaverton.

Where do indoor air quality problems originate? The issue can vary from home to home, but smoking, pets, dust mites, and chemicals released from cleaning products or new construction can all contribute to poor indoor air quality.

Although many of us live with these and other irritants around us each day, long-term exposure may result in physical discomfort or significant health problems. Some Oregon homeowners may experience symptoms including fatigue, allergies and asthma, flu-like systems, or respiratory issues. Certain air pollutants such as carbon monoxide from faulty heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can cause serious consequences or even death.

Our trained professionals can provide a thorough testing of your indoor air quality as well as suggest the best remediation actions for your home. Simple things like air filters, cleaning air ducts, or installing air purification systems may help improve your air quality a great deal.

If you are ready to check your indoor air quality, call Hybrid Heating & Air at 503-357-5663. Our professionals can provide all the needed information for you to make a wise decision. Request indoor air quality service online today.

Maintenance

It’s always easier to boost a broken furnace or air conditioner to the top of your priority list, but it can be a stressful scenario to find yourself in, especially during extreme weather. One way to minimize or potentially eliminate this situation is to invest in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) maintenance.

Turn to our trained professionals at Hybrid Heating & Air a couple times a year for a complete
inspection, maintenance, and cleaning of your HVAC system for your Beaverton home. Regular HVAC maintenance can result in many benefits for the homeowner including:

• More efficient, better-performing heating and air conditioning systems
• Reduced energy bills
• Elimination or reduction of emergency repairs
• Extended life span of expensive HVAC equipment

When you call our team for HVAC maintenance services, you will receive a comprehensive inspection and tune-up. Our trained team will check items such as your thermostat, system controls, and fuel line connections as well as clean your blower and condenser coils. We will tighten electrical connections, lubricate appropriate parts, and inspect pressure where needed as well.

Schedule regular HVAC maintenance before the summer heat strikes to ensure your air conditioner is ready for the hot weather, as well as before your furnace system should be getting ready to take on the coming winter in Oregon.

Zone Control Systems

Most Beaverton homes having a conventional heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system have one thermostat controlling the temperature for the entire home. Over the years, many attempts have been made to control the temperature in particular rooms to reduce energy consumption and costs. For example, some people may close vents in unused rooms or program a thermostat to different temperatures throughout a 24-hour period.

Today, zone control systems are available to provide you with even more control over the temperatures in certain areas of your home. For example, if you want to only heat your upstairs bedrooms in your Oregon home on cold winter nights, you can increase the temperature in that zone while decreasing it in the downstairs zone.

Our Hybrid Heating & Air professionals can help you install a zone control system, which includes motorized dampers that can open and close based on programmed instructions. Each zone of your home has its own thermostat, allowing you to customize temperatures within the zones. The thermostats and dampers are then connected to the central HVAC system.

When one thermostat calls the central system for heat, for example, the automated dampers will open and close appropriately before the furnace fires up. If other zones call for heat during this period, those dampers will open as well. As soon as all thermostats have reached the desired temperatures, the HVAC system will shut off. This makes for high efficiency and lower energy costs.
