Heat Pump Installation in Seattle

Seattle's climate is close to ideal for a heat pump. Winters are long but mild, and temperatures rarely stay near freezing for extended stretches — which is exactly the range where modern inverter heat pumps run at their most efficient. Instead of burning fuel to make heat, a heat pump moves existing heat indoors, which is why it can deliver several units of heating for each unit of electricity it consumes.

That also solves the summer problem in one purchase. Seattle summers have gotten noticeably warmer, and a heat pump reverses to provide real air conditioning — so you're not paying separately for a heating system and a cooling system.

For homes without ductwork, ductless mini splits avoid the cost and disruption of adding ducts to a finished house. For homes that already have ducts, a ducted heat pump reuses what's there. Either way, the equipment runs quietly and modulates instead of blasting on and off, which makes a real difference in older houses with uneven temperatures.

Utility and federal incentives change from year to year, so we'll walk you through what's currently available for your address rather than quoting numbers that may be out of date.
