Manual J load calculation prevents oversizing and short-cycling in Centennial's climate
Heat pumps rated for -15°F operation during snowy Front Range winters
Well-drained soils and rolling foothill terrain support ground loop installations
“Had an issue with my furnace, not running correctly and I thought it was short cycling so I called Bear Creek after having another HVAC contractor looked at it. Charge me $150 and didn't really fix the problem. The owner Kevin showed up and was able to identify the issue had a short-term fix until we could get it fixed. Kevin was very knowledgeable and a nice guy and didn't even me for the short term solution. I would strongly recommend him!”
“Where can I start? Kevin is extremely responsive and knowledgeable. Prices are also reasonable for the quality of work performed. I had an emergency leak in my basement today (had a flight to catch in a couple of hours) and denver water was taking too long to shut the water off in the house. Kevin took time out of his day off to stop by my house and temporarily fix the leak so I could make my flight later that day! The professionalism is unmatched! I will be using Kevin and his team on all sorts of projects going forward. Can’t recommend highly enough!”
“Kevin and his team came into my old moutain home and helped me install a new tankless water heater and a new furnace. They ran into all sorts of unknowns at the house, my well line started leaking into basement and it was just the tip of the iceberg. Kevin stayed numerous days helping me fight problems that were not even part of his installation. He is one who you can say will have your back through thick n thin! He sticks to what he says, where most people would try to stick it to you for unseen work.. His instalation was very thorough and he made sure I was happy before he left. l sure appreciate you helping me fight the fight with courage and leadership. Thank you Kevin and Team A+++”
What We Do
Covering new system installation, heat pump replacement, and ducted system setup with load calculation, refrigerant line placement, outdoor unit mounting, and final performance testing.
Complete system installation with Manual J load calculation and outdoor unit placement for optimal performance
Old system removal and new heat pump installation with refrigerant line upgrades and performance verification
Ducted system setup integrated with existing or new ductwork and airflow testing for even distribution
Why Us
Most installation failures start with improper sizing — oversized systems short-cycle and waste energy, undersized systems run constantly without reaching temperature.
Quotes that don't break down assessment, sizing, placement, and testing leave you guessing about hidden charges
Mid-century ranches and executive homes often have ductwork sized for furnaces, not heat pumps
Gated communities and quiet cul-de-sac streets require careful scheduling and site access planning
Cold-climate heat pumps achieve 300% efficiency vs 95% for gas furnaces, cutting heating bills significantly
Manual J load calculation accounts for semi-arid conditions and temperature swings to prevent short-cycling
Granite outcrops and rolling terrain require strategic placement away from recirculation zones
Proper line sizing and insulation prevent efficiency loss and maintain manufacturer warranty coverage
Technician confirms heating and cooling output matches load calculation before final sign-off

About This Service
Heat pump installation in Centennial serves executive homes, gated communities, mid-century ranches, and new construction near C‑470, offering air-source, multi-zone ducted systems, ductless mini-splits, and geothermal where lot size permits.
Rolling foothill terrain and well-drained soils make horizontal closed-loop geothermal feasible on larger lots, while larger executive homes commonly require multi-zone variable-capacity compressors and zoning dampers to prevent short-cycling; installers also account for C‑470 corridor access constraints and HOA placement guidelines.
Expect a site-specific load calculation, duct or zoning adjustments, and trenching or bore work timelines for ground loops; geothermal delivers higher steady efficiency but needs sufficient land and longer permitting and installation windows than typical air-source systems.

“We have known Kevin Camblin for a decade. First of all, he is fully licensed and insured. I not only hired him to install furnace in my rental, last year we hired him to install new AC in our new home. The home builder had the copper lines preinstalled (refrigerant). When Kevin finished the AC install, he found and repaired the copper line the BUILDER accidentally punctured with a nail. (this leak was in basement ceiling). Outstanding workmanship on Kevin’s part and we went with an upgrade on our new AC - reason was it is more efficient and super quiet. Give this company a call. High integrity and competitive price. AVOID THE BIG CHAINS because the others have high overhead!”
“I have had terrible luck with furnaces in my homes. Not only has Bear Creek Heating & Air replace one furnace but two. My first home and then my second when I moved into a townhouse. In true emergency it was the dead of winter and woke up to a home that was less than 50 degrees. Their team worked efficiently to see was available and do it for a fair and reasonable cost. I would highly recommend this company! I've had my furnace now for a couple years and zero problems!”
