Heat Pump Installation in Lake Oswego, OR

Lake Oswego’s housing stock reflects the city’s biggest growth periods, the 1970s and 1980s, with only about 15% of homes built since 2000, according to the city’s own 2023 Housing Needs Analysis. That mix, established homes around Oswego Lake, larger properties with additions built on over the years, and newer construction filling in the gaps, means no two heat pump projects here look quite the same.

One system, year-round. A heat pump moves heat rather than generating it, so it delivers both heating and cooling from a single piece of equipment. Resilient Retrofits installs Daikin heat pumps, ducted systems for homes with existing ductwork and ductless mini-splits for additions, bonus rooms, or houses without ducts at all. Either way, you get quiet operation, efficiency rated up to three times greater than electric resistance heat, and cooling that doesn’t depend on a window unit.

We start with the house, not the equipment. Before recommending a system, we look at your home’s layout, insulation, air sealing, and existing ductwork, which matters even more in a city where additions and remodels are common and original ductwork doesn’t always match a home’s current footprint. That typically includes a load calculation and, when it’s useful, a blower door test.
