Heat Pump Installation & Replacement

A heat pump heats and cools your home with one system, and it is one of the most efficient ways to stay comfortable in the Carolinas. Penguin Air & Plumbing installs and replaces heat pumps for homes across Charlotte and Union County, sized right and installed to last.

Is a Heat Pump Right for Your Home?

Our mild winters make heat pumps a great fit for many homes here. For homes that already have gas, a dual-fuel system pairs a heat pump with a gas furnace, so the heat pump handles most of the year and the furnace takes over on the coldest days.

We will look at your home, your current system and your energy bills and give you honest options, whether that is a heat pump, a gas furnace with a new AC, or dual fuel.

Signs It Is Time to Replace Your Heat Pump

• Your heat pump is 12 to 15 years old or more
• Frequent repairs or refrigerant leaks
