Move your air to where it needs to be with our quality heat pumps. Call for a free estimate today!

No one likes to spend more than they need to, especially when there’s a cheaper, more fitting alternative. At Top Flight Heating & Air, our customers constantly ask for an AC or furnace replacement that’s just as efficient but less energy-consuming. Our answer to this is usually a heat pump.

Heat pump installation in Milton, DE, is a fast and effective heating and cooling solution for year-round comfort. It’s a resident favorite in mild temperature zones that has a leg up on other units with similar functions.

How Is a Heat Pump Different From Other Units?

Heat pump systems supply warm air, similar to furnaces or other household heaters. However, a furnace burns natural gas or propane within the burner before passing it to the heat exchanger. Unlike a heat exchanger that heats the air, creating your desired temperature, heat pumps separate existing air.

Likewise, an AC unit produces cool air by taking surrounding air and passing it over the evaporator coil. The refrigerant temperatures rise, lowering the air temperature before releasing it indoors. When set to cool, heat pumps do not cool the air but extract indoor heat, making them low-cost systems.

Why Choose a Heat Pump in Milton?

A heat pump works by shuffling heat into or out of your home rather than using extra energy to generate a given temperature. Therefore, they’re easier on utility bills.

Running a heat pump costs two times less than an air conditioning unit and up to 2.5 times less than a furnace. Household residents typically have a furnace and one or more ACs. A two-in-one heat pump replaces both systems for a dramatically cheaper cost year-round.

However, lower utility bills aren’t the only heat pump pros.

High-Efficiency in Moderate Climates

Unlike in areas with drastic temps, heat pumps thrive in the moderate Milton climate. Heat pumps scour out cool air from summer temps that span from the high 60s to the high 80s. During the 50-degree winter highs, it also effortlessly finds and pulls in warm outdoor air. They also provide uniform heating and cooling, diminishing cold and hot spots. Don’t worry about uncomfortable corners or off-temperature rooms that cause your system to work harder to produce your desired indoor climate.

Longevity

If you consider a heat pump installation, you’re looking at fewer replacements down the road. Heat pumps last 15 or more years, while furnaces and AC units last 15 years at best.

They also require fewer repairs, but maintenance is key to a healthy system that’ll last far beyond its lifespan. Depending on how often you use your unit, annual to semi-annual checkups keep minor concerns from worsening into more significant repairs and replacements.

Other Benefits

Two-in-one heating and cooling system for versatility and space-saving
Reduces your carbon footprint since it doesn’t use gas or oil
Safer than high-voltage electric furnaces or gas furnaces that may leak

What Are the Types of Heat Pumps to Install?

If you decide on a heat pump installation, there are three different kinds from which to choose.

Air-sourced heat pumps use air as their primary source of power. It separates warm and cold outdoor air as it passes by the refrigerant. The reversing valve either sends the warm air indoor or outdoor depending on its warm or cool setting.
Water-source heat pumps use surrounding bodies of water, like lakes, rivers, and wells, to heat and cool your home. As water passes through the water-pipe system, the heat pump extracts or rejects heat from the water.
Geothermal heat pumps use consistent underground thermal energy as a natural heating or cooling source.

Heat Pump Installation Cost for Milton, DE Residents

While heat pumps are cheaper in the long run, they typically have a higher up-front cost. The average heat pump installation and new unit costs around $7,000; however, that price varies depending on your unit type.

For instance, geothermal heat pumps are most costly than air and water-sourced heat pumps. A qualified technician will dig a hole four feet down and lay pipes connecting back to your pump, so it’ll reach thermal energy. Heavy land excavation costs may raise this heat pump installation cost to over $20,000.

A heat pump air handler in different zones or rooms of your home also adds up. It costs the average Milton resident up to $10,000 for four units.

I called to schedule an appointment for a technician to come out. Ryan was able to come the same day, about 4hrs later. He was very professional super polite n knew what he was doing. I wasn't receiving any heat n he was able to determine what the issue was n resolve it. I couldn't be happier. Definitely recommend this company to anyone who's having any problems with HVAC system.

Top Flight did an awesome job replacing my whole HVAC system, including duct work. Ryan did a very thorough initial inspection of my old unit which allowed him to make the best recommendations for the issues I was having. They were prompt, courteous and explained in detail everything they were doing during installation. Everything was cleaned up well after the job and I appreciate how quickly they were able to get me scheduled. I highly recommend Top Flight for any of your HVAC needs.

Professional and knowledgeable heat and ac company. Family operated company with family oriented values. Top flight saved the day for me when the company I originally hired to install my new ac central unit took off without completing the job. Top flight stepped right in, corrected and finished the job just as the weather was heating up. They also have improved the way I heat my house. Best heat/ac company I have ever worked with while owning many homes throughout the years. Thank you Top Flight!

The other day, when temperatures were in the teens, I woke up to 54 degrees in my house. I went on line to look up HVAC services and saw that Top Flight had many excellent reviews. So I called them. A couple of hours later, Isaiah and Tyler came to my house. I have to say that it was one of the best experiences, if not the best, that I have ever had with a contractor or service person. They were here all day. Isaiah explained everything to me in detail and encouraged me to ask questions. He was so patient and so nice. Of course, they fixed the problem and gave me some good advice. He was very professional but easy going and well-informed. Also, the prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend this company.

We were going through a total nightmare trying to find a company to fix our HVAC system. We tried 3 different companies that took our money and left us with a system that would stop working within a month after they said it was fixed. Top flight found the problem the 1st time they looked at it. It's now been running for almost a year with no problems. Isiah and this company are the best. We highly recommend them. Thank you Top Flight.

I Highly recommend Top Flight! I called for service at the beginning of the cooling season. Technician came on time, inspected and cleaned the main two heat exchanger zones, checked all the return filters, measured the temp at each supply output and then inspected and cleaned a mini split. He took his time but was really efficient, thorough, clean and knowledgeable. Had great air conditioning all summer! I signed up for their service plan and will be scheduling our heating/fall call after Thanksgiving.

Top Flight is exactly that! Tyler Powell was the technician sent to maintain my very old furnace. He was professional, informative and personable! He let me know what to expect from the furnace and I was pleased with his evaluation. There was no upselling. He, with the owner Ryan, came up with 7 quotes for different brands and efficiencies of furnaces that I requested.The ladies in the office did everything they could to fit me in the schedule! I was so happy with their service and honesty!

I have Top Flight Heating & Air do my annual maintenance on both my central A/C inside the main house and the Mitsubishi A/C unit in our sunroom. Isaiah and Joey are really knowledgeable and listen to your needs. I had a severe attic condensation pipe break causing major ceiling repair in my living room. Isaiah found the leak and suggested redirecting it towards another area of the attic for a better flow to the outside. It has so far worked great. I'm very pleased dealing with Christina in the office. I highly recommend this company.
