Carrier 2.5 Ton Heat Pump Installation in Mountain View, CA
At a Mountain View condo we handled a complete Carrier heat pump installation in Mountain View, pairing a 2.5-ton Carrier heat pump with a new indoor air handler for efficient, all-electric heating and cooling. It’s a compact, high-performance setup that fits tight utility closets well — a common need in Mountain View’s townhomes and condos.
What we installed
We built the system as a matched pair. The vertical air handler went into the closet with a new insulated lineset and condensate drain routed cleanly out the back, and the outdoor heat pump connects through a fresh electrical whip. Because this was a full electrical system, our team ran the dedicated circuit, set a new service disconnect, and added a surge protector to guard the equipment.

The project was permitted, and the finished heat pump passed its HERS test, giving the homeowner verified proof the system meets California energy standards. Working in a shared building means keeping the job clean and the equipment quiet, so we took care to mount everything securely and route the lines out of the way.

Why a heat pump works for Mountain View homes
Mountain View’s temperate climate rarely swings to extremes, so a heat pump can cover both heating and cooling efficiently all year on electricity alone. For condos and townhomes with limited mechanical space, a right-sized 2.5-ton system delivers quiet, even comfort without a bulky furnace, and going all-electric removes gas from the equation entirely. It also positions the home well for the future as the Peninsula continues shifting toward electric heating and cooling.

“The customer service rep and the technician were thorough, friendly, and patient. Excellent overall service. Would highly recommend. Our AC stopped working and I reached out to a few companies on Yelp to get info. Nur HVAC was fast and patient in responding to all my questions regarding cost for a diagnostic, and rough quotes for refilling freon in case that ended up being the issue. They were transparent about costs, but also managed expectations given they hadn't seen the issue. After the technician arrived (Michael K), he confirmed I was low on freon, likely because of a leak. He gave me a few options, costs, and his recommendations on further diagnosis, especially given how old my system was (20+yrs). He was patient to educate me about the system so I could make an informed decision. We confirmed the leak was small, and I was OK with just filling with freon, rather than trying to find/patch the leak or replacing the system. The cost of adding freon covered the diagnostic fee.”
“I called David for a leaking valve. By the time we were done, David and his partner took care of a large and complex set of projects that needed attention in my house, ranging from fixing various plumbing fixtures, to some complex installations, to fixing stock lock, to doing a very complex investigation and repair of a botched up (by prior crew) pool cover motor install. Of particular complexity were the electrical portions of the work, requiring finding practical and high-durability solutions to complex problems, involving dead wires buried in the ground, working with half-installed motors and pumps, shorting switches, etc. I could not be happier with any aspect of the numerous jobs these guys have done for me. They were extremely efficient time and materials-wise, did very high quality work, were extremely punctual and courteous, and proposed and implemented solutions to some problems I long gave up on due to thinking they were impossible to solve affordably. The payment they charge is way, way below what their level of expertise and quality deserves. I am absolutely going to call them for everything and anything I need help with. They are the cavalry of my dreams!”
“They responded very quickly and were able to send out a tech within a couple days. They didn't have the parts they needed to fix our AC due to it's age and condition on the first visit, so we scheduled them to come back when they acquired the parts to finish the job. The tech was quick and efficient, and tested everything before completing the job. Definitely recommended.”

“I had my 40 year old gas furnace and 30 year old central air cooler removed and replaced with all new heat pump system that also qualifies for a SVCE rebate! NUR HVAC’s cost estimate was comparable to their competitors, they were responsive to my needs for scheduling, friendly and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them!”
“This may have been the best contractor experience I've had; and I've had hundreds of them. They were clean, on time, ready to work, interested in quality, and--this is the most gratifying of all--tireless! They met their commitments laid out in the agreement and were very attentive to getting it done right. If I were still in my old job, I'd hire every last one of them. They did a beautiful job, period. They should be very proud.”
“Nur HVAC replaced our broken air conditioning system with a high efficiency heat pump and I am very happy with the results and with the team. Arthur offered a competitive price estimate and was able to schedule the job earlier than expected. Eldar and Andre completed the demolition and installation over two long workdays, paying close attention to detail, safety, and code. The installation is neat and streamlined. I certainly recommend Nur HVAC and would be happy to work with them again.”
“Superior service. Fedor promised a high quality install, and delivered beyond expectations. The installers did a high quality install. There were no shortcuts taken. They did everything they could to make the install go smoothly. I cannot recommend them enough.”
“Nur HVAC installed a dual-system heat pump for us (unit on the ground floor and another upstairs) a few months ago. We would highly recommend them for the quality of work at a competitive cost. The system has been working very well. Fedor, Artur and team were also professional and courteous.”
“I had an excellent experience with NUR HVAC for both diagnosing an issue with my old HVAC, providing me with a very competitive quote for a replacement heat pump system, then doing a thorough job of installing the unit. They ran into issues during installation that required 3 days of work instead of the 2 they originally planned for, which they took care of without asking for an adjustment to their original quote. The installers were professional, friendly, and considerate to keep our house clean. Highly recommended.”
“Nur is fast and helpful. When my AC was down, they quickly sent a technician Adlan who is friendly and experienced, and immediately found out that the root cause is in the outside unit.”
“Islam was very attentive and solved the problems. He was also proactive in what needs to be fixed. Highly recommended!”
“Central gas heater would not turn on. Islam from Nur showed within 2 hours of my call. He quickly diagnosed the issue from the noise, verified it and gave me a quote. The pipes for exhaust and drains were clogged. He immediately cleaned them and took payment via credit card. Everything is working within 3 hours from my initial and only call!”
“Working with David and NUR was a wonderful experience. I changed out my gas water heater to a heat pump and my gas furnace to a more efficient one. David was exceptionally patient while I took over 6 months to decide on a system and never rushed me or pushed me to spend more money. In fact, when I changed my mind to a much less expensive system AFTER I already signed a contract and he had submitted a permit application, he completely supported my decision and didn’t act at all annoyed. After the units were both installed, he presented me a bill that was actually less than what he initially quoted because of different hardware used and a rebate he was able to get. His honesty is so refreshing. The work was done efficiently and the workspace was always kept clean when they left for the day. I continue with the high praises of this company and heartily recommend them!”
