Signs Your Home Needs a Heat Pump

Signs Your Home Needs a Heat Pump

If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your home’s heating and cooling, a heat pump could be the perfect solution.


Heat pumps offer energy efficiency, year-round comfort, and long-term savings—but how do you know when it’s time to make the switch? At Twintech Heating & Cooling, we help homeowners across the Durham Region and Toronto recognize the signs that a heat pump might be right for them.


1.


Rising Energy Bills


If your monthly utility bills keep climbing, your current system may be working harder than it should.


Heat pumps move heat rather than generating it, making them far more energy-efficient than many furnaces or electric baseboard heaters.


2.


Uneven Temperatures in Your Home


Do you notice certain rooms that are too hot in summer and too cold in winter? A properly installed heat pump can help distribute comfortable air evenly throughout your home, eliminating those frustrating hot and cold spots.


3.


Frequent Repairs to Your Current System


If your furnace or air conditioner is breaking down more often, it might make more sense to replace it with a modern, efficient heat pump.


This one system can replace both your AC and much of your heating needs.


4.


Your System Is More Than 10–15 Years Old


Heating and cooling equipment doesn’t last forever.


If your current system is nearing the end of its life, upgrading to a heat pump can give you improved performance, lower energy costs, and modern features.


5.


You Want a Greener, More Sustainable Home


Heat pumps use less energy and produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions, making them an excellent choice for eco-conscious homeowners in Southern Ontario.

by Aaron on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We are very happy to recommend this company to everyone. Our furnace broke down on Sunday morning. We phoned them and before noon Grant the owner showed up. He worked on the furnace for about a hour not wanting to give up to fix the problem. The furnace was 17 years old. I was the one talking about replacing it. End result was the next day it was all done. On the Sunday Bob came over with heaters to warm up the house. We decided to replace the water heater at the same time. Thanks Grant for the excellent work. Thumbs up.

by Linda on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Right on time. Explained how to work the HRV in a different way so the house would not be so dry. Changed my whole house water filter for me as well. Friendly, helpful, caring service!

by Robert Rogers on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Very pleased with the professional service that TwinTech Heating and Cooling provided in replacing my furnace. I got several quotes from different service providers. Their price was excellent and they explained the features very well. We are very glad we went with TwinTech and highly recommend their services.

by Robert Mizuno on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We were new homeowners in need of a second opinion. TwinTech Heating & Cooling were Amazing and professional. Very knowledgeable and great service all around. Recommend to anyone looking for honest and reliable services. Treated with respect and care. Thank you Greg, Mitch and Bob!

by Ruth on Twintech Heating and Cooling

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 did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!

by Anna Chin on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Amazing experience with TwinTech Heating & Cooling! Their team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. They installed my new furnace quickly and left everything spotless. The technicians took the time to explain everything and made sure I was comfortable with the system before they left. Great customer service and fair pricing. I highly recommend them for anyone needing HVAC services!

by Connor Agnew on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Great experience all around. Bob was sharp and easy to talk to, and Greg handled the installation perfectly. Would hire them again in a heartbeat.

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!!

by Courtney Parkes on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Just hired TwinTech Heating & Cooling to do an A/C Unit removal & reinstall to allow for landscaping access on the side of my house, and they were wonderful!
Bob, Greg & Mitch make a great team! Quick appointment times, super knowledgeable, expert troubleshooting capabilities & very customer service oriented.
I would highly recommend them for all of your HVAC needs! Great job guys!!
