Heat Pump Installation on Long Island and Suffolk County

For most homes we look at, yes. Our documented conversions show heating costs dropping roughly 34 percent, which works out to around $1,000 a year on a 3-ton oil-to-heat-pump job and around $1,100 a year on a 4-ton propane job. Against a $12,000 to $30,000 project that is a 10 to 20 year payback on energy savings alone, so the real case for a heat pump is usually the PSEG rebate, the age of what you are replacing, and getting air conditioning in the same install. The PSEG Long Island heat pump rebate is one flat program and PSEG sets your tier by income and address, so we do not quote an amount until they verify it. All savings and rebate figures are estimates, they depend on eligibility, they can change, and we confirm the final numbers in writing before contract.

Modern cold-climate heat pumps hold close to rated capacity down to about 5F and keep producing usable heat below that. Long Island winters rarely drop below the teens, which is well within what current models from Mitsubishi and Daikin handle comfortably. If you want extra peace of mind, a hybrid system pairs your heat pump with a backup furnace or boiler for the coldest nights.

A whole-home heat pump system on Long Island typically costs $12,000-$30,000 before incentives. The PSEG Long Island heat pump rebate is a flat $4,000 to $7,500 by income tier, so most homeowners pay $8,000-$26,000 out of pocket, and PSEG confirms which tier your household and address qualify for. The federal 25C tax credit expired at the end of 2025 and is not available for 2026 installs. We provide a detailed quote after a free in-home assessment.

Absolutely. A hybrid or dual-fuel system pairs your new heat pump with your existing oil boiler. The heat pump handles heating efficiently most of the year, and the boiler kicks in only during extreme cold snaps. This is a popular choice for Long Island homeowners who want lower bills without removing their boiler right away.

The right size depends on your home's square footage, insulation, window area, and layout. We perform a Manual J load calculation during the estimate visit to determine the exact heating and cooling capacity your home needs. Oversizing wastes money and causes short cycling. Undersizing leaves you uncomfortable. Proper sizing is one of the most important parts of the installation.

Maybe. Many older Long Island homes have 100-amp electrical panels, which may not support a heat pump without a panel upgrade to 200 amps that typically costs $1,500-$2,500. We assess your electrical capacity during the estimate and let you know upfront if an upgrade is needed. Some newer heat pump models are designed to work with lower-amperage panels.

We install Mitsubishi, Daikin, and Goodman heat pumps. Mitsubishi and Daikin are top performers in cold climates with the best efficiency ratings, and Goodman is a strong value option. We recommend the right brand based on your home's setup, not a one-size-fits-all answer.

Most heat pump installations take 1-3 days depending on the system type. A single-zone ductless mini split can be installed in one day. A whole-home ducted or multi-zone system typically takes 2-3 days. If electrical panel upgrades or oil tank removal are involved, add a day. We walk you through the timeline during your estimate.
