Need guidance? Our Home Advisors can walk you through the options and help you choose the best fit.

When it comes to whole home heat pump solutions, we take a meticulous approach to ensure your system fits your space perfectly. Our team carefully measures your home, considering its size, layout, insulation, and unique features to recommend the most efficient system for your heating and cooling needs. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all; instead, we tailor our recommendations to ensure optimal comfort and energy efficiency for your entire home. From ducted systems to ductless options, we’ll guide you through the best solution to keep your home comfortable year-round.

Choose Your Heat Pump Style

We offer several styles of heat pumps to suit different spaces and preferences:

• High Wall Units – These are the most common type of heat pump, mounted high on the wall. They provide efficient heating and cooling and are great for rooms with limited floor space.

• Recessed Ceiling Units – Perfect for a sleek, modern look, these units are installed in the ceiling, saving wall and floor space. They are ideal for areas where you want a more discreet appearance.

• Floor Units – These units sit on the floor and are a good option for rooms with limited high wall space. They offer efficient airflow and can be placed in less obtrusive spots.

Each style is designed to deliver efficient comfort while complementing your space. Our team can help you choose the best option based on your home’s layout and needs.

If you're looking for a more traditional heating and cooling system, a ducted heat pump system might be the perfect choice. These systems use ducts to distribute heated or cooled air throughout your home, providing even temperature control in every room. Ducted systems are ideal for homes with existing ductwork or larger spaces where multiple rooms need to be heated or cooled at once.

They can be installed as a full system or in specific zones, offering flexibility depending on your home's needs. Ducted heat pumps are known for their quiet operation and ability to efficiently manage temperatures in larger or multi-level homes.

A heat pump is a system that can both heat and cool your home. In the winter, it pulls heat from the outside air (even when it feels cold) using a special fluid that absorbs the heat. This fluid then moves through the system, where a compressor increases its temperature, and the warm air is released inside your home. In the summer, it works in reverse by removing heat from inside and sending it outside to cool your home.

It's energy-efficient because instead of creating heat, it moves it around, using less energy than regular heating and cooling systems.

Heat pumps can remove some moisture from the air while they cool, but they aren’t designed to function as full dehumidifiers. On especially humid days, they may not keep up. For more on how this works (and when to consider other solutions), read our full breakdown here.
