Trusted Heating Installation & Replacement
Our heating replacement process involves removing the old unit, reviewing your system options with you, and installing the new heater properly. If you’re not sure which heating system you want, we can help you choose between:
- Heat pumps: These are a popular choice in San Diego because of their ability to both heat and cool a home.
- Split systems: These systems have the AC unit outside and the heating unit inside, both connected to your thermostat.
- Mini-split systems: These are smaller versions of split systems designed for small homes or single rooms.
- Packaged units: This large unit houses an AC unit and a heater in one space.
Benefits of Installing a New Heating System
Installing a new heating system in your home can be beneficial in many ways. Here are a few perks:
- You’ll save money on energy bills: A new heating system will be more energy-efficient, meaning it will likely cost you less to run each month.
- You can get rebates for being eco-friendly: There are various rebates available for new heating equipment installations, and we can help you find the ones you’re eligible for.
- You’ll avoid constant repairs: A new heating system means you won’t have to deal with constantly repairing your old one.
- You’ll have a more comfortable home: A new heating system will heat your home more evenly.
Heating Systems We Offer
Whether you’re looking for a traditional split system, a high-efficiency heat pump system, an “all-in-one” packaged unit, or a mini-split system with individual climate control, Guthrie & Sons has a heating solution for you. View our heating systems below.
Split
Systems
A traditional split heating and cooling system usually includes an indoor furnace or air handler and an outdoor air-conditioning condenser. Homeowners located within the city who prefer a gas or electric furnace can learn more about our furnace installation services in San Diego.
Heat Pump Systems
Heat pumps are becoming increasingly popular. Considering most San Diego homes now have solar, a heat pump is the perfect solution, as it can run on electricity, not natural gas.
Package
Units
Package units are an “all-in-one” solution where the heating and cooling elements are combined into one single unit. Ideal for when you want to save interior space, as no furnace is needed.Â
Mini-Split Systems
Depending on your home, you may not be able to install ductwork, which is necessary for directing airflow. With mini-splits, you can install a unit in any room, allowing you to individually control the temperature.

Heating Installation FAQs
Do I need a heating system in San Diego's mild climate?

What types of heating systems are best for San Diego homes?
Heat pumps are a popular choice for San Diego homes due to their energy efficiency and size. However, the type of heater you need depends on your home’s size, available space, and other factors.
Are there energy efficiency HVAC incentives available in San Diego?
