Heat Pumps in Alabama: what's different
Heat Pumps across Alabama depends on the climate (IECC climate zones 2–3). Heat pumps fit hot-humid climates well because winters are mild, but the long cooling season means the outdoor unit works most of the year and needs its coil kept clean.
Alabama is a cooling-first HVAC market. Long, humid summers from May through September keep air conditioners and heat pumps running for months, and the Gulf Coast around Mobile sees some of the highest humidity in the country. Winters are short, but cold snaps still push heat pumps onto backup heat.
Alabama licenses HVAC contractors through the Alabama Board of Heating, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Contractors. You can verify a certification on the Board's website before work starts. Common systems in Alabama: Heat pumps, Gas furnace + central AC, Crawl space and attic ductwork, Dehumidifiers.
Alabama Power serves most of the state, with TVA-supplied municipal utilities and cooperatives in the north. Spire Alabama and municipal systems supply natural gas in many cities.
