In milder winter climates, heat pumps are the most efficient heating option. They cost very little to operate when the temperature is above 35\u201340 degrees.<\/p>\n<p>The downside to heat pumps is their performance in very cold weather. They rely on an electric backup heater to help heat in extremely cold temperatures. This auxiliary heater uses a lot of power when activated, which will increase your power bill. Heat pumps are a great heating source in the Richmond climate.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><div class=\"card bg-transparent border-0 rounded-0 mb-0 px0\">\n                <div id=\"headingOnecollapse69158\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse69158\" aria-controls=\"collapse69158\" class=\"card-header  bg-transparent py-0 px-3 collapsed\">\n                       <h3 class=\"mb-0 py-3 cursor-pointer d-flex align-items-center justify-content-between  cursor-pointer\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse69158\" aria-controls=\"collapse69158\">How long do heat pumps last?<i class=\"icon-chevron-down  float-right  ml-5 bc_text_20 bc_line_height_28 bc_color_quaternary\" ><\/i><\/h3>\n                <\/div>\n                <div id=\"collapse69158\" class=\"border-dark-left-right px-3 collapse  \" aria-labelledby=\"headingOne\" data-parent=\"#accordion9775\">\n                    <div class=\"card-body p-0 pt-3\"><\/p>\n<p>A heat pump will typically have the same life as a central AC. If you buy a quality product from a quality contractor, you should expect 10 to 15 years out of your heat pump. Most of the warranties today cover parts for 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>Preventive maintenance and timely service can help extend the life of your heat pump. If your heat pump is over 10 years old and has serious problems, it may be time to replace your system.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure whether your system needs repairs or a complete replacement, we can help and provide expert advice.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><div class=\"card bg-transparent border-0 rounded-0 mb-0 px0\">\n                <div id=\"headingOnecollapse98325\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse98325\" aria-controls=\"collapse98325\" class=\"card-header  bg-transparent py-0 px-3 collapsed\">\n                       <h3 class=\"mb-0 py-3 cursor-pointer d-flex align-items-center justify-content-between  cursor-pointer\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse98325\" aria-controls=\"collapse98325\">How much does a heat pump cost?<i class=\"icon-chevron-down  float-right  ml-5 bc_text_20 bc_line_height_28 bc_color_quaternary\" ><\/i><\/h3>\n                <\/div>\n                <div id=\"collapse98325\" class=\"border-dark-left-right px-3 collapse  \" aria-labelledby=\"headingOne\" data-parent=\"#accordion9775\">\n                    <div class=\"card-body p-0 pt-3\"><\/p>\n<p>Most residential heat pumps range from around $5,000 to $7,000, though some models may be available for as low as $4,000, and high-end options can cost as much as $14,000.<\/p>\n<p>Many factors can determine the price differences, including the size of the system, its efficiency, and the available comfort features.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you need a new heat pump system and some\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"\/richmond-va-area\/financing\/\"><strong>flexible financing options<\/strong><\/a><strong>, we have you covered.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><div class=\"card bg-transparent border-0 rounded-0 mb-0 px0\">\n                <div id=\"headingOnecollapse2318\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse2318\" aria-controls=\"collapse2318\" class=\"card-header  bg-transparent py-0 px-3 collapsed\">\n                       <h3 class=\"mb-0 py-3 cursor-pointer d-flex align-items-center justify-content-between  cursor-pointer\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse2318\" aria-controls=\"collapse2318\">How long does it take to install a heat pump?<i class=\"icon-chevron-down  float-right  ml-5 bc_text_20 bc_line_height_28 bc_color_quaternary\" ><\/i><\/h3>\n                <\/div>\n                <div id=\"collapse2318\" class=\"border-dark-left-right px-3 collapse  \" aria-labelledby=\"headingOne\" data-parent=\"#accordion9775\">\n                    <div class=\"card-body p-0 pt-3\"><\/p>\n<p>Most heat pump installations and replacements can be completed in one day.

The minimum efficiency of today\u2019s heat pumps is 14 SEER. Most older systems we replace are 8 to 12 SEER. In many cases, even the minimum standard is usually a nice improvement for homeowners with older, less-efficient systems.<\/p>\n<p>For those looking for higher efficiency, we install many 15\u201320 SEER systems. Some ductless heat pumps are incredibly efficient, going as high as 42 SEER.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><div class=\"card bg-transparent border-0 rounded-0 mb-0 px0\">\n                <div id=\"headingOnecollapse309\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse309\" aria-controls=\"collapse309\" class=\"card-header  bg-transparent py-0 px-3 collapsed\">\n                       <h3 class=\"mb-0 py-3 cursor-pointer d-flex align-items-center justify-content-between  cursor-pointer\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse309\" aria-controls=\"collapse309\">What are ductless heat pumps?<i class=\"icon-chevron-down  float-right  ml-5 bc_text_20 bc_line_height_28 bc_color_quaternary\" ><\/i><\/h3>\n                <\/div>\n                <div id=\"collapse309\" class=\"border-dark-left-right px-3 collapse  \" aria-labelledby=\"headingOne\" data-parent=\"#accordion9775\">\n                    <div class=\"card-body p-0 pt-3\"><\/p>\n<p>Ductless heat pump systems are growing in popularity.
