Trusted by Incline Village property owners for heat pump repair, AC service, furnace maintenance & complete HVAC installation throughout Nevada.
From emergency repair to planned installation, we deliver expert HVAC service across every specialty.
Sudden HVAC failures often stem from compressor lockout, blown transformer fuses, failed gas valves, or tripped high-pressure switches. Emergency repair service provides same-day response with technicians equipped to diagnose and resolve critical faults across all major heating and cooling equipment brands.
Upgrading to a smart thermostat enables precise scheduling, remote access, and energy usage reporting that can reduce heating and cooling costs by 10 to 15 percent. Professional installation ensures correct wiring to your HVAC system, including C-wire verification and multi-stage equipment compatibility.
Boiler systems demand specialized knowledge of hydronic circuits, expansion tanks, pressure relief valves, and combustion analysis. Our technicians diagnose issues ranging from kettling and low water pressure to faulty zone valves and circulator pump failures across gas, oil, and electric units.
A professionally installed mini-split eliminates the energy losses associated with traditional ductwork while providing independent temperature control per zone. Technicians mount indoor heads at optimal height, route linesets with proper insulation, and commission each zone for verified heating and cooling output.
Full HVAC installation requires coordination of heating equipment, cooling components, ductwork design, and control systems to deliver efficient comfort at rated capacity. Our technicians perform Manual J and Manual D calculations, size equipment to match your structure, and commission the system to manufacturer standards.
Seasonal air conditioning maintenance prevents costly mid-summer failures by verifying refrigerant charge, cleaning condenser coils, and testing capacitor microfarad ratings against manufacturer tolerances. A thorough tune-up preserves SEER efficiency and extends compressor lifespan by reducing operational strain.
Scheduling professional furnace maintenance each fall ensures your heating system delivers full BTU output without wasting fuel. Technicians inspect the inducer motor, verify pressure switch operation, calibrate gas valve output, and clean the burner assembly for reliable cold-weather performance.
Ductless mini-split systems require specialized diagnostics for inverter-driven compressors, electronic expansion valves, and multi-zone communication boards. Our technicians resolve issues including refrigerant leaks at flare connections, blinking error codes, frozen evaporator coils, and failing fan motors.
A correctly sized heat pump installation eliminates the guesswork of mismatched equipment and undersized ductwork. Our technicians perform load calculations, verify airflow across the evaporator coil, and commission the system to manufacturer specifications for peak efficiency and longevity.
Comprehensive HVAC inspections cover thermostat operation, ductwork condition, refrigerant levels, electrical connections, and combustion safety. This detailed assessment identifies efficiency losses, safety hazards, and components nearing end of service life before they result in costly emergency repairs.
Indoor air quality suffers when ductwork harbors years of accumulated particulate matter, allergens, and biological growth. Thorough duct cleaning addresses every branch run, main trunk line, and register boot using agitation tools and high-powered vacuum extraction to restore clean airflow.
Leaking and disconnected ductwork wastes up to 30 percent of conditioned air before it reaches living spaces, forcing your HVAC system to work harder and driving up energy costs. Professional duct repair seals joints, replaces damaged sections, and restores proper static pressure balance.
Heat pumps rely on a precise balance of refrigerant pressure, electrical components, and airflow to deliver efficient heating and cooling year-round. Professional repair addresses compressor hard starts, frozen coils, faulty thermostatic expansion valves, and auxiliary heat lockout conditions.
Annual dryer vent cleaning reduces fire risk, lowers energy consumption, and extends appliance lifespan. Our technicians clear the full vent path from the dryer connection to the exterior hood, remove bird nests or debris from the termination point, and confirm unrestricted exhaust flow.
Air conditioning failures range from simple capacitor replacements to complex compressor and refrigerant circuit repairs requiring EPA Section 608 certified handling. Our technicians diagnose the root cause using superheat and subcooling measurements, amp draws, and pressure readings to restore full cooling output.

Heat pumps offer both heating and cooling from a single outdoor unit, making them significantly more energy-efficient than furnaces for moderate climates. A heat pump does not generate heat — it transfers it from outdoor air, which requires far less energy than burning gas or running electric resistance coils. Modern cold-climate heat pumps with variable-speed inverter compressors operate effectively down to minus 15 degrees Fahrenheit, making them viable in most Nevada locations. For Incline Village homeowners with natural gas access, a dual-fuel system — heat pump for primary heating paired with a gas furnace for backup during extreme cold — often provides the best balance of efficiency and performance. Heat pumps also qualify for federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act. KIC Refrigeration evaluates your specific climate zone, insulation levels, and utility rates to determine whether a heat pump, furnace, or dual-fuel system is the smartest investment.
