Been working with them for over 9 yrs. Never any issues or upsell they just do
what needs to be done. The Carrier products have been excellent and are far
superior to other units we have had. The guys are always great to deal with.

I usually do not write reviews, but Atmosphere was exceptional in the
workmanship and customer experience.

They replaced the central oil furnace and oil heat water tank in August. The
heat pump/air handler and hot-water tank is working wonderfully. Greg and crew
did a great job with the installation: Very clean, always on time; worked
diligently. They gave me tips and tricks, dos and don’ts, advice with any
concerns with my house (outside of their work); worked through any of my
concerns.

Administratively communication was great. Email and text reminders for
appointments or when staff was dispatched to your house. Invoicing and getting
grant papers signed was easy.

I highly recommend Atmosphere to anyone that is getting heat pumps installed.

Oct 25, 2024: Today we had a 3rd head installed to our heat pump system, and
Patrick (and Billy who came to assist) did a fabulous job! The two of them are
top-notch! We would recommend Atmosphere to anyone! Thanks again for always
going the extra mile to ensure that everything is perfect! Atmosphere is very
fortunate to have these two very knowledgeable, conscientious and professional
people working with them.

***********************

Had our cleaning done today. Anthony did a great job! Keep up the great work,
team!!

***********************

Another great experience with Atmosphere. Patrick, the technician, was extremely
knowledgeable, professional and prompt. Just waiting for a part to arrive now,
but I have no worries that as soon as it's in, Patrick will be back to finish
the job. We have been enjoying our heat pump for the past 6 years and would
recommend Atmosphere and the great team to anyone. Keep up the great work! Twila
& Rick

And yet another day of great service. Patrick came back to finish the job once
the part was in, and he did a great job. I would recommend Atmosphere for your
heating and air conditioning needs!! Thanks again!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Got any more questions? Get in touch with Atmosphere Climate Contro.

HOW WILL I KNOW WHEN IT’S TIME TO REPLACE MY HEAT PUMP?

When the system starts giving you more problems than seem cost-effective to fix.
If the system is 10 years or older its time to start preparing to look at some
of your upgrade options. After the 10 year marker many of the major heat pump
components such as the compressor, reversing valve, accumulator or outdoor coil
begin to break down and fail.

Most manufacturers warranties are also expired at this point in the systems life
and it might make more sense to replace the system instead of fix. Replacing a
compressor is less expensive than replacing the entire unit, but new units may
give you greater efficiency, lower operating costs and a brand new warranty on
the whole unit, not just the part to be replaced which generally are only
covered by a one year warranty.

When faced with major repairs or heat pump break downs, give us a call, we can
help you make the right choice and wont just try to sell you on something you
don’t need.

MY PRESENT HEAT PUMP DOES NOT KEEP US COMFORTABLE. SHOULD I REPLACE IT WITH A
LARGER ONE?

In most cases no. There are several reasons why a heat pump may not be doing its
job effectively. The ductwork could be undersized or not designed properly or if
it is sized for the system that you already have installed then it would be too
small for a larger one because a larger heat pump would need larger ductwork.
The problem may be due to undersized ductwork, poor system design or
installation. You may need ductwork modifications, a proper heating load
analysis, or possibly an energy audit to find the problem areas and correct
them. The other issue could be that the home is too dry and you could benefit
from a whole home humidifier.

Some homeowners have a hard time adjusting to the lower temperature output and
the longer run times of a heat pump vs an oil or natural gas system. They don’t
feel as comfortable, even though the heat pump may be working perfectly fine.

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE LIFE-SPAN OF A HEAT PUMP?

Heat pump longevity varies and largely depends on how much the system is used
and how well it has been maintained. Generally, the average life-span a of heat
pump system is 10-15 years, but individual units may vary and last much longer
depending on use and how well they are maintained. An ARI survey showed average
heat pump life to be about 14 years when regular maintenance and cleanings were
preformed.

CAN I REPAIR MY OWN HEAT PUMP?

NO. Most Heat Pumps are on a 220 volt circuit. Severe shocks or electrocution is
possible without a thorough understanding of electricity and proper safety
procedures. Additionally, air conditioning and heat pump systems are more
complicated to service than ever before, many being comprised of solid state
circuit boards and sensors. The province of Nova Scotia requires a person to
posses a Red Seal Certified Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Mechanic’s
licence to legally work on air conditioning and heat pump systems.  There are
also other laws and statutes that must be followed such as the Clean Air Act
which prohibits releasing refrigerants into the atmosphere. A Red Seal certified
air conditioning contractor or service technician should be called at the first
sign of trouble.

SHOULD I SWITCH TO EMERGENCY HEAT WHEN IT GETS BELOW 0 DEGREES OUTSIDE?

If you have a fully electric heat pump, the answer is no. A heat pump can still
provide heat down to negative -15C. The heat pump and the electric back-up heat
work together and this is all done automatically through your thermostat. If you
an have oil or gas back-up, then you have the option to switch to back-up heat
(Aux/Emergency Heat) for more comfort. But it may be more efficient not to use
it and just allow the thermostat and the system to function on its own, using
the heat pump and supplemental heating as it requires.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I CHANGE THE AIR FILTER IN MY SYSTEM?

Standard one-inch air filters should be checked every month during the peak
operating seasons; clean or replace if your air filter looks dirty enough to
slow the air flow through it. Some filters, such as electrostatic filters or
electronic air cleaners, are washable; others, such as media type air purifiers
are disposable and must be replaced, but many of those are designed to last up
to six months, even a year.

CAN I PUT A SNOW COVER OR SHELTER OVER MY OUTDOOR HEAT PUMP?

You can place a cover above the outdoor condenser of a centrally ducted heat
pump if the cover is far enough above the top of the unit as to not impede the
air flow discharging from the unit. Most manufacturers have a minimum clearance
to ensure proper discharge of the heated/cooled air coming out of the top of the
unit, so it is best to refer to your systems owner/installation guidelines
before proceeding with covering the system.    Failure to follow the
manufacturers recommendations could result in poor system performance, damage to
the system and it might even void your warranty.

Also consider if the cover will interfere with servicing of the unit.  If the
technician needs to take valuable service time to remove the cover and
re-install it you might be in for more of a service charge than expected.
