HVAC Services in Las Cruces, NM
In a normal year, Las Cruces racks up 2,675 heating and 2,058 cooling degree days (NOAA 1991-2020 normals). Neither season dominates in Las Cruces. That balance is a big reason heat pumps and dual-fuel systems sell well in New Mexico. Count on roughly 69 nights below 32°F and 109 afternoons past 90°F in a typical year. 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.
