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.

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

Mini split systems that help Aurora homeowners heat and cool specific rooms without expensive duct installation

Covering single-zone installations for room additions, multi-zone setups for whole-home comfort, indoor wall unit placement, outdoor condenser setup, and refrigerant line installation.

  • Single-Zone Mini Split Install

    One indoor wall unit with outdoor condenser for room additions or single spaces

  • Multi-Zone System Setup

    2-8 indoor units connected to one outdoor condenser for whole-home zone control

Why Us

Load calculation determines how many units your home needs based on square footage and room layout

Most mini split installations fail because homeowners guess at system sizing or place indoor units where they look awkward but don't heat effectively.

Common Challenges

  • Don't know how many units needed

    Uncertain whether one multi-zone condenser or multiple single-zone units fit the home layout

  • Worried about indoor unit appearance

    Indoor wall units may look out of place or clash with existing décor and furniture arrangement

  • Concerned about heating in cold winters

    Skeptical whether ductless systems heat effectively during Aurora's harsh winter freezes

How We Help

  • 1 outdoor condenser serves up to 8 zones

    Multi-zone setup connects multiple indoor units to single outdoor condenser for whole-home coverage

  • Independent temperature control per room

    Set bedroom to 68°F while living room stays at 72°F without conditioning unused spaces

  • Cold-climate models heat down to -15°F

    Hyper-heat inverter technology maintains heating capacity during Aurora's coldest winter nights

  • No duct installation or modification

    Refrigerant lines run through 3-inch wall penetration, avoiding $5,000-$10,000 ductwork costs

  • Wall-mount or ceiling cassette options

    Choose indoor unit style that fits room layout and aesthetic preferences

How We Work

How Mini Split Installation Works

From room assessment to final testing, we arrange local Aurora technicians who size and install ductless systems correctly.

  1. Room Assessment & Sizing

    Technician measures square footage, evaluates room layout, and determines how many indoor units you need for adequate coverage

  2. Indoor Unit Placement Plan

    Technician recommends wall-mount or ceiling cassette locations that provide even airflow without blocking furniture or décor

  3. Installation & Testing

    Outdoor condenser mounted, refrigerant lines run through wall penetrations, indoor units installed, system charged and tested

About This Service

About this Service

Mini split heat pump installations tailored for Aurora residential neighborhoods, focused on single-family homes, ranch-style houses, townhomes, and condominium retrofits. This service suits homeowners who want targeted heating and cooling without ductwork or who add conditioned space.

Local installation realities include outdoor condenser siting for snow clearance and wind exposure, and routing refrigerant lines through exterior walls or attics where lot lines and HOA rules allow. Technicians size systems with a load calculation that factors Aurora's high-elevation, low-humidity summers and cold Colorado winters, and they recommend cold-climate models rated for near -15°F when needed.

Outcome is room-by-room comfort with multi-zone control and lower seasonal cooling costs versus window units. Savings depend on the number of zones, unit placement, and occupant thermostat habits, so expect a pre-install sizing estimate and performance follow-up.

FAQ

Common Questions About Mini Split Heat Pumps

Answers to help you decide whether ductless systems fit your Aurora home.

Undersized systems run constantly without reaching target temperature, wasting energy and shortening compressor lifespan. Oversized systems short-cycle, failing to dehumidify properly and wearing out components faster. Proper load calculation prevents both problems by matching BTU capacity to room square footage and insulation levels.
Indoor wall units are visible and may not suit every décor preference. Upfront cost runs higher than window units but lower than central air with ductwork. Some homeowners dislike the appearance of refrigerant line covers running along exterior walls. Regular filter cleaning every 2-4 weeks maintains efficiency.
Most 2000 square foot Aurora homes need 2-4 indoor units depending on floor plan and insulation. Open-concept layouts may need fewer units with higher BTU capacity. Homes with many closed rooms require more units with lower individual capacity. Load calculation accounts for ceiling height, window area, and insulation quality.
Cold-climate mini splits with hyper-heat inverter technology maintain full heating capacity down to -15°F, covering Aurora's coldest winter nights. HSPF 10+ models deliver heating at 30-40% lower cost than electric baseboard or older furnaces. Systems include automatic defrost cycles to prevent ice buildup on outdoor coils.
Oversized systems short-cycle and waste energy. Running units in unoccupied rooms eliminates zone control savings. Dirty filters reduce airflow and force the system to work harder. Setting temperature too far from outdoor temperature increases energy use. Proper sizing and zone management keep bills 30-40% lower than window units.
Aurora requires electrical permits for new circuits serving mini split systems. Refrigerant line penetrations through exterior walls may require building permits depending on home age and location. Technicians familiar with Aurora building codes handle permit applications and inspections as part of installation.
Single-zone installations typically complete in 4-6 hours. Multi-zone setups with 3-4 indoor units take 1-2 days depending on refrigerant line routing and wall penetration locations. Ranch-style homes with accessible exterior walls install faster than multi-story homes requiring longer line runs.
No. Work is completed by independent local technicians in and around Aurora. We review your request and arrange for a suitable technician to contact you with a quote and availability.

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!
