How long does heat pump replacement take?

Most heat pump replacements are completed in four to eight hours. If refrigerant line sets or electrical upgrades are needed, it may take longer.

Should I replace my heat pump with another heat pump or switch systems?

In most WNC climates, a new high-efficiency heat pump is an excellent choice. If you have gas service and experience very cold winters, a dual-fuel system may offer additional comfort and savings.

What do I need to do before a heat pump replacement?

Very little. We handle everything — including disposal of your old refrigerant per EPA regulations. Just make sure we have clear access to the outdoor unit and the air handler location.
