HVAC Services in Birmingham, AL
NOAA's 1991-2020 climate normals put Birmingham at 2,533 heating degree days and 2,177 cooling degree days per year. Neither season dominates in Birmingham. That balance is a big reason heat pumps and dual-fuel systems sell well in Alabama. A normal year brings 47 nights at or below freezing and 65 days over 90°F. Snowfall averages about 1 inches. For a 2,000 sq ft house, this climate points to a heating load somewhere near 40,000 BTU/h. Treat that as a starting number. A Manual J calculation will move it up or down based on insulation and windows.
