Heat Pump Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Installation

First, we assess your home’s heating and cooling needs. This isn’t a quick walkthrough – we measure spaces, check insulation, and calculate the right system size for your specific situation.

Next, we handle all permits and schedule the installation around your availability. Our crew arrives on time with everything needed to complete the job without multiple trips or delays.

Installation typically takes one full day for most homes. We install the outdoor unit, connect refrigerant lines, set up the indoor components, and test everything thoroughly before we leave. You’ll have heat and air conditioning the same day we start.

How much does heat pump installation cost in Redwood City?

Heat pump installation typically ranges from $4,000 to $12,000 depending on system size, type, and installation complexity. Ductless mini-split systems usually cost less than whole-house ducted systems. The final cost depends on your home’s specific needs, existing electrical setup, and whether ductwork modifications are required. We provide detailed written estimates after assessing your home so you know exactly what you’re paying for before work begins.
Heat pumps are perfect for Redwood City’s mild climate. They work efficiently in temperatures as low as 20°F, and since Redwood City rarely gets that cold, you’ll get excellent performance year-round. The moderate temperatures here mean heat pumps can provide both heating and cooling more efficiently than traditional systems. Many of our customers are surprised how well heat pumps handle the occasional cold snap while providing excellent cooling during warmer months.
Most heat pump installations take 6-8 hours for a complete system. Simple ductless mini-split installations might be done in 4-6 hours, while whole-house systems with ductwork modifications can take a full day. We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your routine and always aim to have your system running the same day we start. Weather and unexpected complications can occasionally extend the timeline, but we’ll keep you informed throughout the process.
Ductless heat pumps mount directly on walls and don’t require existing ductwork, making them ideal for room additions, older homes, or specific zones. Ducted heat pumps work with your existing ductwork to heat and cool your entire home through vents. Ductless systems offer more precise temperature control for individual rooms but require indoor units in each space you want conditioned. Ducted systems provide whole-house comfort but depend on your existing ductwork being in good condition.
Yes, heat pumps typically reduce energy costs by 30-50% compared to electric heating and traditional air conditioning systems. They move heat rather than generate it, which requires much less energy. Your actual savings depend on what you’re replacing, your home’s insulation, and local utility rates. Most Redwood City homeowners see noticeable bill reductions within the first month. The higher efficiency ratings of modern heat pumps mean more comfort for less money, especially during peak usage months.
Yes, we handle all necessary permits and coordinate required inspections with Redwood City. Heat pump installations require electrical and sometimes mechanical permits depending on the system type and installation complexity. We know local code requirements and ensure everything meets current standards. The permit and inspection process is included in our installation service, so you don’t need to deal with city offices or scheduling inspectors yourself.
