Master's Plumbing installs and services ducted heat pumps, ductless heat pumps and dual-fuel systems that pair a heat pump with your existing gas furnace or boiler. We will tell you plainly where a heat pump fits your house and where it does not.
A heat pump may be right for you if
- Your central air is due for replacement and you want heating from the same equipment
- You heat with oil or electric baseboard and want another option
- You have a furnace or boiler that still works and want to run it less
- You are adding space the existing heating system cannot reach
- You want to cut gas use without giving up a backup on the coldest nights
- You want to look into utility or state incentive programs for efficient equipment
Heat pump services we provide
Cold-climate ducted heat pumps
Whole-house systems that replace a central air condenser and use your existing ductwork, with an air handler that includes electric backup heat for the coldest stretches.
Dual-fuel systems
A heat pump paired with your gas furnace or boiler. The heat pump handles mild and moderate days. The gas system takes over below a set outdoor temperature, so you get efficiency most of the year and full heat when it is single digits out.
Ductless heat pumps
Mini-split heat pumps for homes without ducts, sized room by room.
Heat pump repair
Reversing valves, defrost controls, outdoor fan motors, capacitors, refrigerant leaks and auxiliary heat problems on all major brands.
Sizing and controls
Heat pumps are sized for the heating load as well as the cooling load, and the thermostat is set up so backup heat runs only when it should. Both are commonly done wrong.
