What Is a Ducted Air-Source Heat Pump and Why Is It Essential in Quebec?

A ducted air-source heat pump is a complete HVAC system that uses existing ductwork to distribute heated or cooled air evenly throughout your home. Unlike wall-mounted units that serve individual rooms, this system provides balanced comfort—eliminating hot and cold spots. It’s the ideal solution for homes with existing ductwork or new construction projects.

In Quebec, where winters are harsh and summers can be humid, a ducted air-source heat pump is a smart investment. It delivers exceptional energy efficiency, significantly lowering your electricity bills compared to oil, gas, or electric resistance heating. Plus, its advanced filtration systems improve indoor air quality—a critical advantage for family health and well-being.

Choosing a ducted air-source heat pump means choosing sustainable, cost-effective, and high-performance comfort tailored to Quebec’s demanding climate. Let Thermopompe Montréal guide you to the perfect system for your home.

Your Concerns, Our Solutions: Common Questions About Ducted Heat Pumps

We address the most frequently asked questions to help you make an informed decision.

💸

Is the upfront cost too high?

While initial costs are higher than basic furnaces, federal and provincial rebates, long-term energy savings, and increased home value make this a wise, ROI-positive investment.

🛠️

Do I need new ductwork?

Not necessarily. We inspect your existing ducts. If they’re leaky or undersized, we offer retrofitting or full replacement services to ensure optimal airflow.

🔊

Will it be noisy?

Modern ducted heat pumps operate quietly. The noisy components are outdoors, and airflow through insulated ducts minimizes indoor sound levels.

⏳

How long does a ducted heat pump last?

With professional installation and annual maintenance, expect 15–20 years of reliable service. Proper care can extend lifespan beyond 25 years.

💡

Can I control it with a smart thermostat?

Absolutely. All our systems support Wi-Fi thermostats like Nest, Ecobee, and Honeywell for remote control, scheduling, and usage analytics.

💧

How does it handle humidity in summer?

Air-source heat pumps naturally dehumidify as they cool. Combined with optional dehumidifier add-ons, they keep your home dry and comfortable during humid Quebec summers.

Frequently Asked Questions About Ducted Air-Source Heat Pumps

What’s the difference between a ducted air-source heat pump and a ductless mini-split?

A ducted air-source heat pump uses existing ductwork to distribute air throughout your entire home, offering uniform comfort. A ductless mini-split serves individual rooms via wall-mounted units and is ideal for homes without ducts or for targeted zoning.

Can a ducted heat pump replace my old furnace?

Yes. It can operate alone in moderate climates or paired with a gas furnace in a hybrid setup, automatically switching to the most efficient source based on outdoor temperature.

Are there rebates available for installing a ducted heat pump?

Yes! Federal programs like Canada Greener Homes Grant and Quebec’s Rénoclimat program offer significant rebates—up to $5,000+—for qualifying high-efficiency models. We help you apply.

How long does installation take?

Typically 1–3 days, depending on ductwork modifications. We work efficiently to minimize disruption and leave your home clean and functional.

How often should I maintain my ducted heat pump?

Annual professional maintenance is strongly recommended. This includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical components, and inspecting duct integrity.

Do ducted heat pumps work in extreme cold?

Yes. Modern cold-climate models operate efficiently down to -25°C (-13°F). For temperatures below that, a hybrid system with a backup furnace is often recommended for uninterrupted comfort.
