Cold-Climate Heat Pump Installation in Richmond Hill & York Region
A cold-climate heat pump can cool your home in summer and provide efficient heating through much of a GTA winter. Before recommending one, we check the home’s heat loss, existing ductwork and electrical capacity, then quote the complete installed system.
Eligible Ontario homeowners may qualify for heat-pump incentives of up to $2,000 or $7,500, depending on the home’s existing primary heating source and the qualifying system. Program rules and pre-approval requirements apply.
Refrigerant work is carried out by a 313D-certified technician on our team.

Why a heat pump
One system, both seasons — heats in winter, cools in summer, no separate AC needed.
It works in Toronto winters — cold-climate models keep producing heat well below zero; in a hybrid setup, a gas furnace stays as backup for the coldest stretch and the controls switch based on outdoor temperature and the configured balance point.
Lower running costs and lower carbon — than resistance electric or older systems.
Ontario rebates available — incentives can offset a meaningful part of the cost for eligible homes.

Ontario’s Home Renovation Savings program offers incentives toward a qualifying cold-climate heat pump. Eligibility depends on the home’s existing primary heating source, property type, the equipment selected, and program requirements. Pre-approval is required before installation, and rebates are processed through a participating contractor. Ask us about your options and we’ll point you in the right direction.
What we do
We start with a load calculation
The right heat pump depends on your home’s heat loss, existing ductwork, and electrical capacity. We check all three before recommending a system.
Hybrid or all-electric?
We walk you through both. A hybrid (heat pump + gas furnace backup) suits many GTA homes with existing gas. An all-electric setup suits homes moving off fossil fuels.
Every installation includes the equipment, the install, commissioning, and the manufacturer warranty registered in your name.
The heat pumps we install
We install most major brands. Arcoaire and Goodman are our primary installation lines — reliable, rebate-eligible cold-climate systems. Prefer another brand? We can quote sourcing and installation where available, and we service all major brands.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a heat pump cost in Ontario after rebates?
Depends on the system, your home, and eligibility — incentives of up to $2,000 or $7,500 may apply. Pre-approval through a participating contractor is required. We give you the installed price in writing.
Do heat pumps really work in Toronto winters?
Yes — cold-climate models are rated to keep heating well below zero; in a hybrid setup the gas furnace covers the coldest days.
Heat pump or furnace — which is cheaper to run?
Depends on electricity vs gas prices and outdoor temperature; a hybrid runs whichever is cheaper. We’ll model it for your home.
Am I eligible for a rebate?
Eligibility depends on your home’s existing primary heating source, property type, equipment selected and program requirements. Pre-approval is required before installation.
Can a heat pump replace my AC too?
