Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a heat pump installation last?

A professionally installed air-source heat pump can last 15–20 years with regular maintenance; geothermal systems often exceed 25 years.

Will my electric bills increase in winter?

Modern heat pumps are optimized for cold climates. While electricity usage rises, overall heating costs remain lower compared to electric resistance or aging fuel-burning systems.

Are ductless mini-splits noisy?

Outdoor units operate at approximately 50 decibels—comparable to soft rainfall. Indoor heads are designed for whisper-quiet performance.

Can I install a heat pump if my existing ductwork is old?

Duct inspection is part of our site survey. We can upgrade or seal ductwork to ensure optimal airflow, or recommend a ductless or hybrid system.

Do heat pumps require antifreeze recharge or ground-loop maintenance (geothermal)?

Ground-source systems use closed-loop antifreeze mixes that rarely require topping off; our maintenance plans include periodic checks for leak-free operation.

What temperature range can a heat pump effectively handle?

High-efficiency heat pumps remain operational down to -10°F with auxiliary backup; cold-climate models perform efficiently even in sub-zero conditions.

How do I choose the right SEER and HSPF ratings?

We size every system to your home’s load requirements and recommend SEER ratings of 16+ and HSPF ratings of 8.5+ for Pennsylvania climates.

Can I finance both equipment and labor?

Yes. Our financing partners offer options covering up to 100% of the project cost, including installation and permit fees.

Is Wi-Fi thermostat integration available?

We offer connectivity solutions compatible with Nest, Ecobee, Honeywell, and manufacturer-branded smart thermostats for remote monitoring and control.

How soon can incentives be applied?

Rebates and tax credits can be claimed within one year of installation. We provide all necessary documentation and forms to expedite your applications.
