Our heat pump options
For installs we walk you through two configurations: a straight heat pump (cheaper electric bills, no gas bill) or a dual-fuel hybrid that pairs the heat pump with a high-efficiency gas furnace from our Furnace Installation lineup. Hybrid is what we recommend for most Plainfield homes - heat pump runs above 35°F, furnace takes over below. Daikin makes excellent heat pumps too - see our Daikin Fit Installers page. If a heat pump doesn't fit your home, a standard system from our AC Installation and Furnace Repair services may be the better call. Everything falls under the broader heating and cooling services we've offered Plainfield since 1995. For the most efficient one-system option of all, see geothermal heating and cooling - ground-source heat pumps run 40-70% cheaper than a high-efficiency furnace. Heat pumps run year round, so twice-yearly service matters - see heating maintenance and AC maintenance. For a room with no duct at all, a ductless mini split is the same technology at a smaller scale.

Heat pumps for Plainfield homes
Indiana's climate sits right at the edge where heat pump economics get interesting. Modern variable-speed heat pumps handle Plainfield, Avon, Brownsburg, and Mooresville winters well, especially when paired with a gas backup. For homes without natural gas (parts of Mooresville, Stilesville, and Monrovia), a heat pump is almost always cheaper than electric resistance heat - sometimes by 60%. We know which neighborhoods have undersized electrical panels, which homes have ductwork that can handle higher airflow, and which subdivisions get the worst ice storms - defrost cycle programming matters here.
