What factors affect the cost of a heat pump installation?

System Size: The size and layout of your home play a crucial role in determining the appropriate heat pump size. A system that's too large or too small can lead to inefficiencies and increased energy costs. Our technicians specialize in assessing your home to recommend a heat pump that perfectly matches its size and layout, ensuring optimal performance and energy efficiency.
System Efficiency: The efficiency of a heat pump is measured by its SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) and HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) ratings. Higher efficiency units may have a higher upfront cost but can save significantly on energy bills in the long run. We offer a range of high-efficiency heat pumps to fit every budget, allowing you to choose a system that balances initial investment with long-term savings.

Heat Pump vs. Furnace

Heat Pump vs. Furnace, Which Is Best?

For homeowners in Tucson, Arizona, a heat pump is typically the better option over a furnace.

Some of the advantages of a heat pump are:

Dual functions: With a furnace, you would also need to have a cooling system. A heat pump can do both heating and cooling for your entire home.
High efficiency: Since a heat pump transfers heat rather than creating it, it usually uses less energy. This leads to noticeable savings on your bills. Many experts estimate that you'll see a 30 to 50% reduction in your energy bills when switching to a heat pump in Arizona.
Eco-friendliness: Since a heat pump doesn't use fossil fuels, it's the environmentally friendly choice.

FAQs

Heat Pump Install Frequently Asked Questions

A heat pump installation in Tucson can range between $5,000 and $10,000. Some of the factors that will impact your final cost include the size of your home, the type of system, and energy efficiency. This price for heat pump installation includes the system, labor, and materials needed to get your new heat pump up and running smoothly.

Yes, a heat pump can work very well in a desert climate for both heating and cooling. Heat pumps are incredibly efficient because they transfer heat rather than generate it.

However, note that areas with extreme temperature swings - like the shift from hot days to cool nights in Tucson - may require a heat pump with a modern inverter model to be efficient.

The 20-degree rule for heat pumps states that your indoor temperature shouldn't be more than 20 degrees cooler or warmer than the outdoor temperature. A variance of more than 20 degrees between outdoor and indoor temperatures will mean your system has to overwork itself. This can lead to increased energy bills, premature wear on the system, and more frequent repairs.

The $5,000 Rule for heat pumps states that you should always multiply your system's age (in years) by the repair cost (in dollars). If the total exceeds $5,000, replacing the system is the more cost-effective option than repairing an older, inefficient unit.

If the total is under $5,000, a repair might be more affordable in the long term if you believe you can still get several years out of your heat pump.

A heat pump should never be installed next to stairways. A heat pump can warm or cool an adjacent room, but not if two rooms are separated by stairs. In this case, the heat will rise to the upper level instead (or the same process for cooling).

Luckily, when you pay for professional heat pump installation, the expert technicians will advise on the best location for your heat pump to maximize system efficiency.

Customer Testimonial

Thank you, guys, for your value, skill, professionalism, and all-around niceness!

“We just got a heat pump installed to replace the window units we've been using for 10 years. The salesperson, Jeff, was friendly, professional, and went the next mile to make sure we got a great deal. Within 3 business days, we had several different crews in and out. All led by Al, with the daily inspection by Jeff. Wow! What a difference in the comfort of our home, thanks to Ken, Kevin, Jeff, Al, and Zach at Advantage Air! Thank you, guys, for your value, skill, professionalism, and all-around niceness!”
