Heat Pump Installation

Cold-climate heat pumps use electricity and a refrigerant to transfer heat from one space to another. Heat pumps have two components connected by thin copper lines.

  • An outdoor compressor, mounted to the side of your home.
  • A wall-mounted blower and temperature sensor inside your home.

For added convenience, our heat pumps are operated with an easy-to-use remote control, included with each unit. This simple system keeps your Vermont home comfortable year-round.

Cold-climate heat pumps are also known as "ductless mini-splits" or "air source heat pumps." Whatever you want to call yours - a ductless unit, a mini-split heating and air conditioning system or a heat pump - we call it year-round energy savings and comfortable homes for Vermonters just like you!

Heat Pump Installation

Cold-climate heat pumps are easy to install. You don't have to dig up your yard or have major duct work installed in your home. The connection between indoor and outdoor units requires only a three-inch hole through an exterior wall. The entire installation is normally completed by our certified technicians in a few hours.

    Last September, the Energy Co-op installed two heat pumps for us – one to heat and cool our downstairs living space, one to heat our hot water. We are very, very happy with both units and highly recommend them.
