Water Source Heat Pumps & Residential Chillers in Tequesta, FL
Specialized comfort solutions for homes and multi-unit properties.
Water source heat pumps and residential chillers are some of the most efficient and versatile heating and cooling systems available, but they require experienced hands to install, maintain, and repair properly. At CM Air & Refrigeration Inc., we specialize in these systems and serve homeowners, contractors, and property managers throughout Tequesta, Jupiter, Palm Beach, and Martin Counties.

What Are Water Source Heat Pumps & Chillers?
Water source heat pumps use water to transfer heat in or out of your space, rather than relying solely on air. This process allows for high efficiency and consistent comfort, making these systems ideal for Florida homes and multi-unit buildings. Residential chillers work similarly, cooling your space while reducing energy consumption compared to older systems.
These systems are complex, with multiple components including pumps, coils, water lines, compressors, and control systems. While they are highly efficient, any issues can impact performance quickly. That’s why having trained, experienced technicians is critical. At CM Air & Refrigeration, we understand the intricacies of these systems and provide services designed to maximize efficiency, extend lifespan, and prevent costly downtime.
