Keep Your Heat Pump Running Its Best
Because heat pumps run year-round, they need bi-annual maintenance—spring for cooling and fall for heating. Our HVAC maintenance helps keep your system efficient, prevent breakdowns, and extend its lifespan.
Heat Pump vs. Traditional Furnace & AC
Heat pumps excel when:
- You want heating and cooling in one efficient unit
- Your home doesn’t have access to natural gas
- You’re focused on long-term energy savings
A furnace and AC setup may be best when:
- You already have a newer, efficient gas furnace
- You need maximum heating capacity in extreme cold
We’ll review your home and goals so you can make the best choice.

Heat Pump FAQs
Are heat pumps effective in Maryland winters?
Yes. Modern heat pumps are designed to perform in colder climates and work efficiently even during freezing temperatures. For added performance, hybrid (dual-fuel) systems pair a heat pump with a backup furnace.
What’s the typical lifespan of a heat pump?
Most heat pumps last 12–15 years with proper maintenance. Bi-annual tune-ups can help extend life and reduce repair costs.
Do heat pumps qualify for tax credits or rebates?
Yes. Many high-efficiency heat pumps qualify for federal tax credits and local rebates. We’ll help you find available incentives before you buy.
Can I add a heat pump to my existing furnace?
Yes, hybrid setups are common in Maryland. A heat pump handles most heating and cooling, while the furnace takes over in extreme cold.

It varies based on home size, system type, and efficiency, but we provide clear, upfront estimates—and financing options are available.
