Heat Pump Installation Process

Here's How We Install Your System

First, we evaluate your home’s heating and cooling needs. This isn’t a quick glance – we measure your space, check your electrical system, and assess your current ductwork to determine the right heat pump size and type for your specific situation.

Next comes the actual installation. We handle all the electrical connections, refrigerant lines, and ductwork modifications needed to integrate your new heat pump properly with your home’s systems. This includes positioning the outdoor unit where it will operate efficiently and connecting it to your indoor air handler.

Finally, we test everything thoroughly before we leave. We check refrigerant levels, verify all electrical connections, and run the system through complete heating and cooling cycles to ensure everything works correctly. You’ll know exactly how to operate your new system and what to expect for performance.

Everything Included With Your Installation

Your heat pump installation includes proper system sizing based on your home’s actual heating and cooling load calculations. Many contractors skip this step, but it’s crucial for efficiency and comfort. An oversized system cycles on and off too frequently, while an undersized system struggles to maintain temperature.

We handle all necessary electrical work and permits required for your installation. Heat pumps often need dedicated electrical circuits, and we ensure everything meets local codes and manufacturer specifications.

You also get a complete system startup and performance verification. We don’t just install and leave – we run your system through full operation cycles, check all safety controls, and verify that refrigerant levels and airflow meet manufacturer standards. This thorough approach prevents callbacks and ensures your system operates as designed from day one.

Most heat pump installations take one full day, though some complex installations may require two days. The timeline depends on factors like whether new electrical circuits are needed, ductwork modifications, and the type of system being installed. Replacing an existing heat pump usually goes faster than installing a completely new system. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during our initial assessment so you can plan accordingly. Weather can sometimes affect outdoor work, especially during winter installations, but we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your home.
Modern heat pumps are designed to work efficiently in cold climates like Massachusetts. Today’s cold climate heat pumps can extract heat from outdoor air even when temperatures drop well below freezing. Many systems work effectively down to -15°F or lower. However, proper sizing and installation are crucial for cold weather performance. An undersized system will struggle during extreme cold, while a properly sized system will keep your home comfortable throughout winter. Some installations include backup heating for the coldest days, but a well-designed heat pump system handles most Massachusetts winter conditions without issue.
Heat pump sizing depends on your home’s heating and cooling load, which we calculate based on square footage, insulation levels, window types, ceiling heights, and local climate conditions. This isn’t something you can determine from online calculators or rules of thumb. An oversized system will cycle on and off frequently, reducing efficiency and comfort. An undersized system won’t maintain comfortable temperatures during extreme weather. We perform detailed load calculations to determine the right capacity for your specific home, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency year-round.
Many heat pump installations require electrical upgrades, especially when replacing older heating systems. Heat pumps typically need dedicated 220V circuits, and older homes may not have adequate electrical capacity. We evaluate your current electrical system during our assessment and let you know what upgrades are needed. Common upgrades include installing new circuits, upgrading electrical panels, or adding disconnect switches. We handle all electrical work and permits as part of the installation process, so you don’t need to coordinate with separate electrical contractors. The electrical requirements vary based on the heat pump size and your home’s existing electrical setup.
Energy savings depend on what system you’re replacing and your home’s efficiency, but many homeowners see significant reductions in heating and cooling costs. Heat pumps are much more efficient than electric resistance heating and can be more cost-effective than oil or propane systems, especially with current fuel prices. The exact savings vary based on your current system, local utility rates, and how you use your heating and cooling. We can provide estimates based on your specific situation during our consultation. Many customers find that the energy savings help offset the installation cost over time, especially when replacing older, inefficient systems.
Heat pumps need regular maintenance to operate efficiently and last their expected lifespan. Basic maintenance includes changing air filters regularly, keeping the outdoor unit clear of debris, and scheduling annual professional tune-ups. During professional maintenance, we check refrigerant levels, clean coils, inspect electrical connections, and verify all system components are working properly. Our Dempsey Comfort Club membership program includes scheduled maintenance to keep your system running efficiently. Proper maintenance prevents most major repairs and ensures your heat pump continues operating at peak efficiency. Neglecting maintenance can lead to reduced efficiency, higher energy costs, and premature system failure.
