How Long is My Heat Pump Going to Last?

The lifespan of a heat pump can vary based on factors such as the type of heat pump, usage patterns, maintenance, and overall build quality. On average, a well-maintained heat pump can last between 15 to 20 years. Here's a breakdown based on different types of heat pumps:


  1. Air Source Heat Pumps: These are the most common type of heat pumps and are designed to extract heat from the air. With proper maintenance, air source heat pumps can last around 15 years or more.


  2. Geothermal Heat Pumps: Geothermal heat pumps, which utilize the stable temperature of the ground to exchange heat, generally have a longer lifespan. They can last 20 years or more with proper maintenance.


  3. Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pumps: These systems, which consist of an outdoor compressor unit and one or more indoor air handlers, typically have a lifespan of 15 to 20 years.


Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the longevity and efficiency of a heat pump. Tasks such as cleaning or replacing air filters, inspecting and cleaning coils, and checking refrigerant levels should be performed regularly.


If you notice a decline in performance, unusual noises, or higher energy bills, it may be an indication that your heat pump requires attention. Consulting with a professional HVAC technician for regular inspections and addressing issues promptly can help extend the life of your heat pump.


As with any heating and cooling system, when a heat pump starts to age and experience frequent issues, you may want to consider replacing it with a newer, more energy-efficient model. Keep in mind that advancements in technology may offer more efficient and environmentally friendly options over time.

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all!

I definitely recommend TwinTech!

by Trevor Owens on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. I’ve used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. He’s great and the service is always top notch. I’d highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

by Nicole Alain on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!
