Heating Installation in Hermitage, TN

A new furnace or heat pump is a long-term decision for your Hermitage home. Childs Heating & Air provides residential and light-commercial heating installation in Hermitage — including furnace installation and heat pump installation — from our Mt. Juliet shop at 5011 Market Place, Unit B. Childs Heating & Air was founded in 2008 by Justin Childs, with roots back to 1976 through Jim Davis Heating & Air.

We size and install gas furnaces, electric furnaces, air-source heat pumps, and ductless options when a home needs targeted heat without new duct runs. We walk you through what fits your house, your ducts, and your budget before any equipment is ordered.

Childs Heating & Air is licensed, bonded, and insured. Regular hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. For after-hours heating failures while you wait on a replacement decision, 24/7 emergency service is available by phone. Call (615) 519-8545.

Why proper heating installation matters in Hermitage

Middle Tennessee winters bring cold snaps that push heating systems hard. An undersized furnace or heat pump runs almost nonstop and still leaves cold rooms. An oversized system short-cycles, wears parts faster, and can leave some spaces uncomfortable. Homes in Hermitage and nearby Old Hickory and Donelson also vary widely in insulation, duct condition, and how open the floor plan is — so matching the old unit’s label alone rarely works well.

We start with a careful look at your home’s heating needs: square footage, insulation, existing ductwork, fuel type (gas or electric), and how you use the space. That load-based approach is the foundation of a system that stays comfortable on the coldest Hermitage mornings without unnecessary runtime.

Heating installation options we install

• Gas and electric furnaces for whole-home heat through existing or updated ductwork
• Heat pump systems that heat in winter and cool in summer from one outdoor unit
• Hybrid setups that pair a heat pump with a furnace when that match fits the home and the way you use it
• Ductless mini-splits for additions, bonus rooms, or homes where ducts are impractical

We service and install equipment across makes and models. We do not push a single brand. The right choice is the one that matches the house, the ducts, and the way your family lives — explained in plain language, not sales jargon.

What to expect on a heating installation project

1. On-site evaluation of the home, existing equipment, fuel and electrical capacity, and duct condition.
2. Clear proposal with system options sized for the building, not a guess based on the old unit’s label alone.
3. Protect the home — we keep work areas as clean and tidy as the job allows.
4. Remove and replace the furnace, air handler, and/or outdoor unit; connect gas or electrical, flue or refrigerant lines, condensate drainage, and controls to manufacturer and code requirements.
5. Commission the system — verify safe operation, airflow, temperature rise or split, and thermostat operation before we leave.
6. Walk-through so you know how to run the system, change filters, and spot issues early.

If duct repairs or sealing would improve comfort, we say so up front.

Hermitage homes we typically install for

We install systems for single-family homes across Hermitage and nearby addresses toward Old Hickory and Donelson, including newer subdivisions and older houses that need careful duct evaluation before a changeout. Light-commercial spaces — small offices and similar — are in scope when the equipment and access match what we handle well.

Because we dispatch from 5011 Market Place, Unit B in Mt. Juliet, follow-up questions after install are easy: you are calling a local shop, not a call center in another state.

Repair, replace, or wait?

Not every cold house needs a brand-new system tomorrow. If your current furnace or heat pump can be repaired safely and economically, we will say so and show you the option. When the equipment is near the end of its life, needs repeated major repairs, or can no longer keep up with the home, we explain replacement options as the more practical path and provide an estimate so you can compare options.
