Climate Zones
Goodyear falls in USDA Hardiness Zone 13, with mild winters and intensely hot summers. The area's design temperatures—60°F for heating and 110°F for cooling—show why heat pumps need to handle substantial cooling demand while meeting modest winter heating needs. Palmetto understands Goodyear's climate and can recommend a system suited to local conditions. Explore other zones below or enter your ZIP code to confirm your zone.
Climate Zone 1
Climate zone 1 is not typically seen within the United States outside of Alaska. It represents the coldest climates on the planet.
Climate Zone 1A
Avg. extreme winters: -60° to -55° F
Climate Zone 1B
Avg. extreme winters: -55° to -50° F
Goodyear Electricity Prices
For Goodyear homeowners, electricity rates are one reason to look beyond a system’s purchase price.
Arizona’s average electricity price climbed from 12.5¢ per kWh in 2021 to 14.9¢ in 2024; the national average reached 16.5¢ that year.
A heat pump can deliver heating and cooling using less electricity than traditional HVAC—often 2–3 times as efficiently—so your home may need less power to stay comfortable.
Over time, lower electricity use can help soften the effect of rate increases in Goodyear. Actual savings depend on your home, system, utility rates, and energy use.
Price of Energy: Arizona vs National Average
Goodyear Area Utility Providers
In Goodyear, APS electricity averaged 15.3¢ per kilowatt-hour in 2023. These are the latest utility figures available; 2024 data has not yet been released.
APS’s 2023 rate was 1.3¢ above Arizona’s 14¢ average and 0.7¢ below the national average of 16¢. These comparisons show where APS falls relative to each benchmark, but don’t explain what drives the differences.
Electricity costs matter, but so does how efficiently your HVAC system uses it. Heat pumps can deliver heating and cooling with less energy than traditional HVAC, potentially lowering total energy spending even where electricity rates are higher.

Repair versus replace
When a heat pump is in need of repair it is worth considering whether a replacement would be a better investment. While each case is unique, we generally recommend investing in a new unit when repairs exceed $5,000.
A heat pump's lifetime is impacted by a number of factors including environment, use and the quality of the unit. It's important to choose the right unit for your climate zone and home's unique attributes.
When you are in need of repair, we recommend choosing a service provider that is an expert in the heat pump brand you have installed, and checking online reviews to ensure you are investing in the right level of service.
| Potential repair | Cost range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Capacitor Replacement | $150 - $400 | Common issue when unit struggles to start or makes a humming noise. Capacitors store the electrical energy needed to start the compressor and fan motors. |
| Refrigerant Recharge | $250 - $750 | Needed when the system loses cooling or heating efficiency due to low refrigerant levels. Includes leak detection, repair of minor leaks, and recharging the system to the manufacturer-specified level. |
| Reversing Valve Replacement | $450 - $900 | Required when the unit cannot switch between heating and cooling modes. The reversing valve directs refrigerant flow and is unique to heat pump systems. |
| Compressor Replacement | $1,500 - $3,000 | Major repair needed when the unit fails to heat or cool entirely. The compressor is the heart of the system, circulating refrigerant between the indoor and outdoor coils. |
| Evaporator/Condenser Coil Replacement | $1,200 - $2,800 | Replacement needed when coils develop leaks or corrosion that cannot be economically repaired. Coil damage reduces heat transfer efficiency and can cause refrigerant loss. |
| Control Board Replacement | $500 - $1,200 | Required when the system has electrical failures or erratic behavior. The control board manages all system operations including defrost cycles, fan speeds, and compressor staging. |
| Full System Replacement | $4,500 - $8,000+ | When repairs exceed the value of the unit or multiple major components fail simultaneously. Includes removal of the old system and installation of a new heat pump with updated refrigerant lines and electrical connections. |
