AmeriHeat installs three types of heat pump systems. The right choice depends on your home's existing ductwork, your zone needs, and your budget.
Replaces or pairs with your existing forced-air system. Uses your home's existing ductwork. Handles both heating and cooling. Heil authorized dealer. Free estimate.
No existing ductwork needed. Room additions, garages, older Rochester homes, finished basements. Single-zone and multi-zone. Gree ductless installed.
Heat pump paired with a gas furnace backup. Ideal for Rochester winters where temperatures regularly drop below 35°F. Efficiency of a heat pump when conditions allow, gas reliability when temperatures drop.

We install Heil ducted heat pump systems and Gree ductless mini-splits. Those are the brands we stock and install for new residential heat pump work. We also service and replace heat pumps from all other major manufacturers. For new installation, free estimate on any system type.
Ducted heat pumps (Heil): Installed as a whole-home heating and cooling system using your existing ductwork. A ducted heat pump replaces the traditional split-system furnace and AC configuration. A single system handles both heating and cooling. Heil is our authorized dealer brand for ducted residential heat pump systems.
Ductless mini-splits (Gree): Installed without existing ductwork. Wall-mounted indoor heads connected to an outdoor unit. Available in single-zone and multi-zone configurations. Rochester homeowners use ductless for room additions, garages, older homes without ductwork, and finished basements. Gree is our primary ductless installation brand. We service all other brands regardless of installer.
Dual-fuel systems: A heat pump paired with a gas furnace as a backup heat source. The heat pump runs during moderate cold weather when it is most efficient. When outdoor temperatures drop below the heat pump's effective range (typically around 35 degrees Fahrenheit and lower in Rochester winters), the gas furnace takes over. Dual-fuel is a practical choice for Rochester because our winters regularly produce temperatures where heat pump efficiency drops significantly.
Rochester's climate is the main factor that shapes heat pump installation decisions here. Two things stand out:
Cold winters: Rochester averages about 99 inches of snow per year and routinely sees temperatures below 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Standard heat pumps lose efficiency as outdoor temperatures drop. Modern cold-climate heat pumps from Heil and other manufacturers are rated to operate at -15°F or lower, but efficiency still decreases in deep cold. Dual-fuel systems address this by providing gas furnace backup when temperatures drop. If you are replacing an oil or gas system and considering a full heat pump switch, the cold-climate performance question is one we address honestly in the estimate conversation.
Older housing stock: Many Rochester homes do not have ductwork. Pre-war homes with radiator heat, older homes with hydronic baseboard heat, and split-level or multi-wing homes with limited duct runs are all ductless candidates. Ductless installation avoids the cost and disruption of adding ductwork and provides zone-controlled heating and cooling for the specific rooms that need it.
A ducted heat pump installation replaces your existing outdoor condenser and typically the indoor air handler or coil. If your existing ductwork is in good condition, it stays. The installation includes removing the old equipment, setting the new outdoor unit, installing or connecting the indoor components, running refrigerant lines, and completing the electrical connections. Most residential ducted heat pump installations complete in one day.
A ductless mini-split installation adds a wall-mounted indoor head and an outdoor unit. Line sets (refrigerant lines and electrical) run through the wall from the indoor head to the outdoor unit. Single-zone ductless jobs typically complete in half a day to a full day. Multi-zone jobs with multiple indoor heads take longer depending on the number of zones and complexity of the line set routing.
In every case: you get the full installation cost before we start, not after. The estimate covers equipment, labor, and any electrical work required. We document what was installed and leave you with model numbers and warranty information for your records. If your home needs an electrical panel upgrade to support a heat pump system, we flag that in the estimate conversation before any commitment. For heat pump repair on an existing system rather than new installation, see our heat pump repair page.
