“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 load calculation, outdoor unit placement on alluvial plains, refrigerant line connections, ductwork integration, and final system testing
Complete system installation with load calculation, outdoor unit placement, and testing
Old system removal and new heat pump installation with performance verification
Ducted system installation integrated with existing or new ductwork and airflow testing
Why Us
Rural properties face unique challenges. Without proper sizing and wind-rated placement, systems short-cycle in summer and struggle during winter, wasting energy and leaving rooms uncomfortable.
Watkins proximity to Denver International Airport means constant wind exposure accelerates outdoor unit wear and reduces efficiency
Hidden charges for ductwork modifications or electrical upgrades turn quoted prices into budget overruns
Open land properties with high ceilings and exposed walls need larger capacity than standard calculators suggest
Modern air source heat pumps achieve SEER 16-20 ratings vs SEER 10-13 for older furnace and AC setups
Heavy-duty mounting brackets and reinforced cabinets withstand airport wind patterns without vibration damage
Loose gravel soils in Watkins allow faster outdoor unit placement without rock excavation delays
Fixed pricing includes load calculation, refrigerant lines, electrical connections, and testing with no hidden fees

About This Service
Heat pump installation in Watkins covers assessment, load calculation, system sizing, outdoor unit placement, refrigerant and electrical connections, and final testing. It suits rural homes and modular houses on open land east of Aurora, including properties near E-470 and Denver International Airport.
Airport wind patterns and flat alluvial plains influence outdoor unit siting; installers may place condensers behind windbreaks, on elevated mounts, or set longer refrigerant line runs for distant mechanical rooms. Loose gravel soils make ground-mount pads or shallow concrete footings straightforward.
A correctly sized air-source system or ductless mini-split delivers quieter operation, consistent indoor temperature, and 30–50% lower heating and cooling energy use versus older furnace/AC setups. In Watkins expect recommendations for cold-climate models rated to about -15°F and one to three days for most retrofit installs depending on ductwork and site access.

“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!”
