Things to Consider Before Installing a Heat Pump
While heat pumps are a great solution for many homes, they aren’t ideal in every situation. If your gas furnace is in excellent condition and you're only replacing your air conditioner, it may be more cost-effective to just replace the A/C unit.
However, heat pumps are an excellent option when:
- You’re replacing both your furnace and air conditioner
- You rely on propane for heating and want to reduce fuel costs
- You want to reduce your environmental impact
- Your HVAC system needs frequent repairs and space is tight—eliminating a furnace can free up room
Ductless Heat Pumps
Ductless or mini-split heat pumps are perfect for small homes, room additions, or areas not connected to central ductwork. They consist of two main parts: an outdoor compressor/condenser and an indoor air-handling unit linked by a conduit that carries refrigerant, power, and drainage.
Main advantages:
- Compact and flexible for unique spaces
- Easy installation with no need for ductwork
- Independent room control
Things to keep in mind:
- Higher upfront system costs
- Proper sizing is essential for efficiency
- Some homeowners don’t like the look of indoor units
If you think a ductless system might be right for you, ask your technician or call us for more information.
