Heat Pump Installation Process

Here's How Your Installation Works

First, our technician evaluates your home to determine the right heat pump size and placement. This isn’t guesswork – proper sizing is critical for efficiency and longevity. We’ll also check your electrical system and ductwork.

Next comes the installation itself. Our team handles all permits and coordinates inspections. We’ll remove your old system, install the new heat pump components both inside and outside your home, and connect everything properly.

Most heat pump installations take one to two days, depending on your home’s setup and whether any electrical or ductwork modifications are needed. Simple replacements where existing connections work fine can often be completed in a single day. More complex installations that require electrical upgrades or ductwork changes may take two days. Our team will give you a clear timeline during the initial evaluation so you know exactly what to expect and can plan accordingly.
Yes, modern heat pumps work well in Massachusetts winters, even when temperatures drop below freezing. Today’s heat pumps are designed to operate efficiently down to about 5 degrees Fahrenheit, which covers most winter days in the Millis area. Many systems include backup heating elements for the coldest days. The key is proper sizing and installation – an oversized or undersized system won’t perform as efficiently regardless of the weather outside.
Replacing an existing heat pump is usually faster and less expensive because the electrical connections, refrigerant lines, and ductwork are already in place. Installing a heat pump where you previously had a different heating system requires more work – electrical upgrades, new refrigerant lines, and possibly ductwork modifications. Both situations require proper permits and inspections, but new installations typically take longer and cost more due to the additional infrastructure needed.
Heat pump sizing depends on your home’s square footage, insulation levels, window types, ceiling height, and local climate conditions. A professional load calculation determines the exact capacity needed – this isn’t something you can figure out from online calculators. Oversized systems cycle on and off too frequently, reducing efficiency and comfort. Undersized systems run constantly and struggle to maintain temperature. Proper sizing is critical for both performance and longevity of your investment.
Heat pump installations in Millis typically require both electrical and mechanical permits, especially if you’re upgrading from a different heating system. The electrical permit covers any wiring changes or electrical panel upgrades needed. The mechanical permit covers the heat pump installation itself. Most installations also require inspections to ensure everything meets local building codes. Professional installers handle all permit applications and coordinate inspections as part of the installation process.
Heat pumps need regular filter changes every 1-3 months and annual professional maintenance to keep running efficiently. The outdoor unit should be kept clear of debris, snow, and vegetation. Professional maintenance includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical connections, and ensuring all components work properly. Most manufacturers require annual maintenance to keep warranties valid. Regular maintenance prevents breakdowns and keeps your system running at peak efficiency, which saves money on energy bills.
