Yes. Altitude reduces the cooling capacity a system actually delivers, so a unit sized by a rule of thumb rather than a real load calculation tends to fall short on the hottest days. We account for the altitude derate when sizing replacement equipment, which is one of the reasons we assess the home before quoting.
Once a year, in spring before cooling season. Timing matters here because the cottonwood bloom clogs outdoor units quickly, and Colorado hard water is hard on condenser coils and capacitors. A spring visit clears the coil and catches worn components before the first stretch of hot weather.
It is worth considering. A heat pump cools in summer and heats in winter using the same equipment, and Xcel Energy rebates plus federal tax credits often apply. Whether it makes sense depends on your existing heating setup and the home itself, so we lay out both paths rather than pushing one.
