Heat Pumps & Ductless
Heat Pump Installation in Providence, RI
A ducted heat pump replaces both the air conditioner and much of the furnace's work, heating and cooling through your existing ducts. We size for your house's heat loss at design temperature and set up backup heat so the house stays comfortable in the coldest stretch.

Signs it is time to call
- Your AC is due for replacement and you heat with gas, oil or propane
- You want one system for heating and cooling on existing ducts
- Rooms are uneven and the ducts need attention anyway
- You are adding solar and want to use more of it
Heat pumps have become one of the most common upgrades around Providence, both in homes moving off oil and in triple-deckers and capes with no ductwork. Cold-climate models handle local winters well when they are sized from a heat-loss count and mounted above the snow line.
What the work includes
- Heat-loss and cooling-load calculation
- Cold-climate or standard model choice based on your goals
- Duct check and fixes so airflow suits a heat pump
- Backup heat setup with your furnace or electric strips
Providence's winter design temperature sits in the single digits. We size heat pumps to handle that and set the balance point so backup heat only runs when it is truly needed.
How the visit goes
- We read fault codes and check how the system is set up at the thermostat or remote.
- Then we test the outdoor unit, defrost operation and refrigerant readings.
- You get a clear explanation of what failed and what the fix costs before we start.

Heat Pump Installation questions
Will a heat pump keep my house warm in a Rhode Island winter?
A cold-climate heat pump sized for your house will handle most winter weather on its own. Backup heat covers the rare deep cold snaps.
Can I keep my furnace as a backup?
Yes. A dual-fuel setup uses the heat pump most of the time and switches to the furnace in very cold weather.
Do heat pumps work with old ductwork?
Often, but heat pumps need good airflow. We test the ducts and fix restrictions so the system performs as rated.
