Serving Arvada from Lafayette
Arvada boomed after World War II, from about 1,500 people in 1945 to nearly 50,000 by 1970. Those postwar homes and the historic houses around Olde Town keep us busy with furnaces, boilers and swamp coolers.
Arvada is one of the larger cities we serve, about 124,000 people across Jefferson and Adams counties at the 2020 census. It was platted in 1870, incorporated in 1904 and became a city in 1951, just as the postwar building boom took off.
We repair and replace furnaces, air conditioners, boilers, water heaters and swamp coolers all over Arvada, with the same family service and posted prices we offer everywhere.
Arvada had about 1,500 residents when World War II ended. Then the houses came: in the late 1940s and 1950s, whole neighborhoods went up north of Ralston Road between Carr and Independence streets, and the city grew to about 19,000 by 1960 and nearly 50,000 by 1970.
Postwar homes like these are often on their third or fourth furnace, with ductwork that was never sized for central air and a lot of swamp coolers still on the roof. Most gas furnaces last somewhere around 15 to 20 years and most central air conditioners around 12 to 15, depending on how they were installed and cared for. It is common to find a furnace and an air conditioner of very different ages sharing the same tired ductwork.
Closer to downtown, the historic neighborhoods around Olde Town, Reno Park and the Stocke-Walter addition from the early 1900s, can have boilers, older gas furnaces and water heaters in tight basements.
Common heating and cooling calls in Arvada, and where to start.
For the postwar homes on their third or fourth furnace. We will tell you straight.
Get an honest answerStart-ups, winterizing and repairs on the evaporative coolers still common in Arvada.
Swamp cooler serviceArvada requires a permit before work starts for both replacements and new installs. Furnaces and air conditioners need a residential mechanical permit, water heaters and boilers a residential plumbing permit, and evaporative coolers can go under either. Permits come from the Arvada Building Safety Division through a portal open only to contractors with an active City of Arvada license. If you are comparing quotes, ask whether the permit is included.
Xcel Energy provides Arvada’s electricity and natural gas. Arvada’s Energy Action Plan page points residents to Xcel Energy rebates. Xcel’s list of eligible equipment and amounts changes through the year (its 2026 rebates focus on heat pumps), so check the program or our rebates page.

I had a furnace inspection from Aspen Creek. The technician was thorough, professional, and explained everything that he was doing. The appointment was easy to set up. I would definitely call this company again for HVAC issues.

Great air conditioning process and execution. Showed up, assessed, and priced. No “cooling associate” follow-up needed like 2 other companies; this company cut to the chase. They gave the most competitive price and Charlie and Ian were thorough and worked hard on my install. Highly recommend.

Today’s service was the yearly furnace inspection. The technicians arrived within the quoted time window, and were friendly, informative, and knowledgeable. The pricing was competitive. This is the second time that I’ve used Aspen Creek, the first time was for air conditioner repair. I’ve been completely satisfied so far, and plan on continue using them for my HVAC needs.

What an amazing and honest technician Sam was. He was very knowledgeable and thorough. Sam took his time and checked our furnace and AC/Heat-pump top to bottom. He put on shoe covers each time he came into our house. I will never use any other company to service our system. You need an honest and reliable company call Aspen Creek Heating and Air. Sam thank you for all you did.

Really friendly, considerate people and great work from start to finish—scheduling an estimate all the way through installation. They explained everything and really showed that they cared about my questions and my satisfaction. Our new heat pump and furnace are great.

Aspen Creek Heating and air is amazing! After having no air for the weekend, they were able to get us in first thing Monday morning. Sam was awesome! He found the issue and was able to get our house cooled down! He was very professional and friendly. We recommend this company to everyone! Thank you so much!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aspen Creek Heating & Air has been my go-to HVAC company for quite a while, and they continue to earn my business every time I need them. They are quick to respond, dependable, and professional. One thing I especially appreciate is their communication—they keep me updated throughout the process, so I’m never left wondering what is happening or when something will be completed. When there’s a problem, I want a company that responds quickly, communicates clearly, shows up when they say they will, and gets the job done right. Aspen Creek Heating & Air has consistently done exactly that for me. It’s difficult to find service companies you can truly rely on, and once you find one, you stick with them. Aspen Creek Heating & Air is that company for me. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, responsive, and professional heating and air conditioning company. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #captjimandadela #capjimed

Trevor was very professional, respectful of my home, pleasant and explained all the furnace elements and how they work. Cleaned my furnace and said I was good to go. Will request him next visit. Also very good communication with the appointment and reminders.
Yes. Arvada requires permits for replacements and new installs before work starts: mechanical for furnaces and AC, plumbing for water heaters and boilers. Only contractors with a City of Arvada license can pull them.
Yes. We start them up in spring, winterize them in fall and repair them. Start-up and winterizing are $229 each.
Often, but it depends on the ductwork. Many postwar homes have ducts sized only for heat. We will look at what you have and give you a free estimate on the options, including a heat pump.
The same as everywhere we work. Repairs start with an $89 trip and diagnostic fee, waived if you go ahead with the repair.
Call the Nevin family or request service online. We will tell you straight what it needs.
