A homeowner in Bee Cave was dealing with an aging HVAC system that struggled to keep up with comfort demands across the main living areas. Our team at Radiant completed a full system upgrade, replacing the existing setup with a modern dual fuel heat pump system designed for better efficiency, airflow, and control. The result was a more consistent indoor environment, improved air quality, and smarter temperature management throughout the home.
Job Overview
- Location: Bee Cave, TX
- Client Type: Residential
- Scope: Full HVAC system replacement including heat pump conversion, duct modifications, and indoor air quality upgrades
- Equipment Installed: heat pump condenser, furnace, coil, Honeywell T10+ Pro thermostat, and EcoLink system
- Additional Work (if any): Supply plenum replacement, return duct upgrade, media filter installation, UV air purification system, thermostat sensors installation, disconnect replacement
- Why It Mattered: The homeowner gained more reliable comfort, improved airflow, and energy savings with a modern, fully integrated system
What We Found
The existing system was outdated and not performing efficiently, especially across the primary suite and main living areas. Airflow was restricted due to undersized return ductwork and an aging filter setup. The system also lacked modern controls, making it harder to maintain consistent temperatures throughout the home. These issues can lead to uneven comfort, higher energy bills, and added strain on HVAC equipment over time.
The Solution
We installed a new ECOER dual fuel heat pump system paired with a high-efficiency furnace, giving the homeowner the flexibility of electric heating with gas backup when needed. Inside the home, we upgraded the supply plenum and increased the return duct size to improve airflow. A new AprilAire media filter was added for better filtration, along with a full Solaris air purification system that includes UV-C lights and ionization technology.
We also installed a Honeywell T10+ Pro smart thermostat with multiple sensors placed strategically throughout the home, including the primary bedroom. This allows for more accurate temperature control based on real living conditions. Outside, we replaced the disconnect and ensured proper placement of outdoor sensors for optimal performance. The entire system was tested, calibrated, and connected through the ECOER EcoLink platform for smart monitoring and control.
