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

Heat pump repair that helps Aurora homeowners restore heating and cooling when systems fail

Covering compressor diagnosis, refrigerant charge correction, electrical troubleshooting, and component replacement to restore system performance

Why Us

Diagnosis with transparent repair versus replacement guidance

Most heat pump failures stem from compressor issues, refrigerant leaks, or electrical faults. Without proper diagnosis, you risk paying for repairs that don't solve the problem or replacing a system that could be fixed.

    Heat pump cycles nonstop without delivering heat or cooling, driving up energy bills

  • Uncertain if repair or replacement makes sense

    Repair costs might approach replacement cost, making it hard to know the right choice

  • Worried about being without heat during repair

    Downtime during peak heating or cooling season leaves the home uncomfortable or unsafe

About This Service

Heat Pump Repair in Aurora

Heat pump repair in Aurora covers diagnosis and repair of air-source, ductless mini-split, and geothermal systems for homeowners, property managers, and small businesses across the Front Range suburbs. It suits sites that lose heating or cooling, make unusual noises, run continuously, or show sudden bill increases.

A technician performs a diagnostic visit with pressure gauges, amp draws, blower tests, and electrical inspection to identify compressor failures, refrigerant leaks, reversing valve faults, defrost control problems, or bad capacitors. Expect refrigerant recovery and EPA-compliant handling on any leak repair and a written diagnostic report before work begins.

Many common faults are repaired same day, but a failed compressor or 12+-year outdoor unit can make replacement more cost-effective. Technicians should provide a clear repair‑versus‑replace estimate and note when temporary auxiliary heat will be needed during cold snaps.

FAQ

Common questions about heat pump repair in Aurora

Answers to help you understand repair options and costs

A heat pump running nonstop without reaching temperature signals compressor failure, refrigerant leak, or electrical issues. Ignoring it drives energy bills up 40-60% while the system struggles. Continued operation can damage the compressor beyond repair, turning a $600-$1,200 component fix into a $5,000-$8,000 full replacement. Early diagnosis prevents total system failure.
Delaying repair during peak heating season leaves your home without heat when temperatures drop below freezing. Emergency repairs during extreme cold cost 20-30% more than scheduled service. A failed heat pump in winter can freeze pipes, causing water damage that exceeds $10,000. Early repair prevents emergency breakdowns and secondary damage.
Refrigerant leaks are the most common issue, causing reduced heating and cooling capacity. Low refrigerant forces the compressor to work harder, increasing energy bills and shortening system lifespan. Technicians locate the leak, repair it, and recharge the system to restore performance. Regular maintenance catches leaks early before they damage the compressor.
Most heat pumps can be repaired if the compressor and major components are intact. Repairs make sense when the system is under 10 years old and the fix costs less than 50% of replacement. Technicians assess component condition and provide honest guidance on repair versus replacement based on system age and repair cost.
Diagnostic fees run $100-$200. Minor repairs like thermostat replacement or electrical fixes cost $200-$500. Refrigerant recharge costs $300-$800. Compressor replacement runs $1,200-$2,500. Technicians provide a clear quote after diagnosis so you know the cost before work starts. Emergency service during peak seasons may include a premium.
The $5,000 rule states that if repair cost multiplied by system age in years exceeds $5,000, replacement is usually the better choice. Example: A $1,500 repair on a 4-year-old system equals $6,000, suggesting replacement. This rule helps homeowners decide when repair no longer makes financial sense compared to a new system.
Minor repairs like thermostat replacement or electrical fixes take 1-2 hours. Refrigerant recharge takes 2-4 hours including leak detection. Compressor replacement takes 4-8 hours depending on system access. Emergency repairs prioritize restoring heat or cooling quickly, with follow-up work scheduled if needed. Technicians provide a timeline after diagnosis.

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!
