LG Heat Pump Install

A heat pump transfers heat rather than generating it, working like a reversible air conditioner. In winter, it extracts heat from outdoor air and moves it inside. In summer, it reverses to cool. Heat pumps are highly efficient, especially in mild climates like the Bay Area.

Available incentives include: federal tax credits for high-efficiency equipment (up to $2,000), utility rebates varying by provider (often $200-1,500), and state programs. Heat pumps and high-efficiency systems typically qualify for the most incentives. Check with your utility and tax advisor.

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating option, delivering 2-3 units of heat per unit of electricity (200-300% efficient). Geothermal heat pumps achieve even higher efficiency. For furnaces, condensing gas models reach 98% AFUE. The best choice depends on your climate, fuel costs, and existing infrastructure.
