Dual Fuel Hybrid System Installation & Repair in Durham, NC
HVAC systems come in many shapes, sizes, and combinations. As a homeowner, you have the ability to create your ultimate climate control focused on optimal efficiency. Dual fuel systems provide a great HVAC solution that utilizes both a heat pump and gas furnace system. While your heat pump both cools your home during the summer and heats your home during mild winters, when temperatures drop low enough, your furnace switches on to take over in supplying heat to your home. This tag team effort gives you the heating power you need only when you absolutely need it, creating a highly efficient HVAC solution during the colder months. Happy Home’s team of HVAC technicians has spent years setting homeowners up with dual fuel hybrid systems in Durham, NC so that every winter season is a warm and comfortable one.
An exceptional service experience starts with reaching out to our team to schedule your next dual fuel system service. Contact us today via phone, webchat, or online booking and our team will work with you on getting a licensed technician to your home.

FAQs
At what temperature does a dual fuel system switch to the furnace?
It depends on the equipment’s efficiency and your utility rates, and it is set at installation. Most Triangle systems switch somewhere in the 30s. If yours switches at 50 degrees or never switches, the setting or the control needs attention.
Does dual fuel cost more to install than a heat pump alone?
Yes, because it includes a furnace and a gas connection. Whether it pays back depends on how many hours per winter the furnace runs at rates below the heat pump’s cost, which is the calculation we show you in the estimate.
Can I add a furnace to an existing heat pump to make it dual fuel?
Often, if the heat pump is in good condition and the ductwork and space allow a furnace in place of the air handler. The estimate confirms compatibility and whether the existing thermostat supports the changeover.

The service technician came to do the fall/winter maintenance on my heat/AC unit. He was very thorough. Did a great job servicing, and cleaning the unit, and the air cleaner unit. Very courteous and friendly. Definitely a professional technician.
