Types of Heat Pumps We Install

Ducted central heat pumps use your existing ductwork and replace your furnace/AC combination with a single efficient system.

Ductless mini-split heat pumps install individual wall units in each zone, requiring no ductwork. Ideal for homes with boiler heat or additions.

Dual-fuel hybrid systems pair a heat pump with your existing gas or oil furnace — the heat pump handles most of the load, the furnace kicks in only on the coldest days.
