AC Replacement vs Heat Pump

When your central AC needs replacement, you have two options: replace with another AC-only unit, or upgrade to a heat pump (which provides both cooling and efficient heating). Our free quote includes both options with detailed pricing so you can compare. The heat pump costs more upfront but provides year-round benefits.

AC-Only Quote Details

Central AC-only quote includes: 14-20 SEER options, multiple brand choices (Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman), evaporator coil, line set, electrical disconnect, and installation. Total installed cost: $4,000-8,000. This is the most affordable cooling option if your furnace is in good condition.

Heat Pump Quote Details

Heat pump quote includes: cold-climate heat pump for year-round operation, SEER 16-22 options, CleanBC rebate of $2,000-6,000, estimated annual heating savings, and total installed cost: $8,000-14,000 (net cost after rebate: $4,000-10,000).
