HVAC services across Portland, OR.

Portland sits in IECC Climate Zone 4 Marine — mild winters that rarely drop below 20°F, prolonged damp shoulder seasons that extend heating demand, and occasional summer heat domes (the 2021 event hit 116°F) that have made AC and heat pump installs the new baseline.

HVAC in Portland

HVAC for the city of Portland — every sector, every era of housing.

Portland sits in IECC Climate Zone 4 Marine — mild winters that rarely drop below 20°F, prolonged damp shoulder seasons that extend heating demand, and occasional summer heat domes (the 2021 event hit 116°F) that have made AC and heat pump installs the new baseline.

Pre-1940 Portland homes commonly run 60- or 100-amp electrical panels and balloon-framed walls — both shape how a heat pump retrofit, return-air duct routing, or AC install actually gets done. Tight crawlspaces and original cast-iron drain lines also factor in.

We're 25 minutes from our Oregon City shop, so trucks are in Portland most days of the week. We pull every BDS mechanical permit on install jobs, and the work is backed by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

Where we work in Portland

Five Portland sectors, one local crew.

Portland breaks into roughly five sectors, each with its own housing-stock quirks. We work in all of them.

  • Inner SE

    Sellwood-Moreland · Hawthorne · Richmond · Brooklyn

    Pre-1940 craftsman bungalows and four-squares on tight lots.

  • Inner NE

    Alberta · Sabin · Irvington · Beaumont

    Pre-1940 craftsman and bungalow stock, often with original ductwork.

  • SW

    Multnomah Village · Hillsdale · SW Hills

    Mid-century homes on hillsides — outdoor-unit placement gets interesting.

  • North

    St. Johns · Kenton · Portsmouth

    Older working-class housing on smaller lots, mix of bungalows and post-war.

  • Outer SE / East

    Lents · Powellhurst · Montavilla

    Newer post-war tract homes, more modern panels and duct systems.

Portland-specific work

Two things every Portland homeowner should know.

  • BDS permits, every install

    Portland requires mechanical permits for HVAC work, issued by the Bureau of Development Services (BDS). We pull and submit on every install, schedule the BDS inspection, and you get the signed-off paperwork in your inbox.

  • Older Portland homes, planned for

    Pre-1940 Portland homes commonly run 60- or 100-amp electrical panels and balloon-framed walls — both shape how a heat pump retrofit, return-air duct routing, or AC install actually gets done. Tight crawlspaces and original cast-iron drain lines also factor in.
