Clear report of system condition, remaining lifespan, and repair needs
“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
Covering refrigerant level testing, electrical component evaluation, coil condition assessment, and operational performance verification in heating and cooling modes
Operational test before winter with refrigerant, electrical, and coil checks
Detailed evaluation for home buyers with lifespan estimate and repair costs
Why Us
Most heat pump failures start with problems you can't see. Refrigerant leaks, worn electrical contacts, and coil degradation reduce efficiency and lead to complete system failure when you need heating or cooling most.
Low refrigerant from slow leaks reduces heating capacity by 20-30% before failure
Electrical contacts degrade over time and fail when system runs hardest in winter
Dirt and debris on coils reduce efficiency and cause compressor overheating
Technicians test refrigerant levels with digital scales accurate to half an ounce
Heating and cooling modes tested to confirm temperature rise and drop meet specs
Contactors and relays checked for pitting and resistance that causes failure
Indoor and outdoor coils inspected for dirt buildup that reduces heat transfer
Report includes expected years of service based on component condition and wear

About This Service
A Heat Pump Inspection in Lakewood focuses on systems serving Jefferson County residences and Denver metro homes, including foothills properties in Belmar, Green Mountain, and Bear Creek. It’s intended for buyers of existing homes and homeowners scheduling pre‑winter checks where elevation and local siting matter.
Field checks emphasize low‑temperature operation, defrost cycles, and refrigerant pressures adjusted for high elevation, plus outdoor unit mounting on reinforced pads where rocky soil limits placement. Inspectors also test ductless mini‑split line‑set routing, indoor unit airflow, condensate drainage, and temperature split under load.
You receive a concise condition report, immediate repair recommendations to address before closing or winter, and notes on expected performance at Lakewood elevations. If intermittent cycling or heat loss appears only under extreme cold, extended monitoring or a follow‑up diagnostic visit is usually required.

“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!”
