Kansas spans 3 IECC climate zones (4A-Mixed-Humid, 4B-Mixed-Dry, 5A-Cool-Humid). Across 36 cities, the dominant HVAC profile is dual-fuel: with median 4,700 heating degree days and 1,200 cooling degree days, the typical home benefits from a dual-fuel setup — a heat pump for mild days plus a gas furnace that takes over during deep cold snaps.

Kansas does not issue a statewide HVAC contractor license. Instead, each municipality licenses the mechanical trade — Kansas City (KS) requires a Mechanical Contractor license through its Neighborhood Services and Housing office, Wichita licenses via the Office of Central Inspection, and Overland Park, Olathe, and Topeka each have their own registrations. Always verify an active local HVAC license, current general-liability insurance, and any bond required by the city. File complaints with the Kansas Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
