Heat Pump Installation in Hicksville, NY
Cold-climate heat pumps that heat and cool – as a whole-home system or alongside the boiler you already have.
How they workSetupsRebatesCostFAQ
A heat pump moves heat instead of burning fuel: it pulls heat out of the outdoor air in winter and out of the house in summer. Today’s cold-climate models are rated to keep heating well below freezing, which makes them a real option for Long Island homes.
How Heat Pumps Fit Hicksville Homes
Because so many homes here have steam or baseboard heat and no ductwork, the right setup depends on the house. We start with a load calculation, then look at your existing system, electrical service and layout.
Common Setups
Ducted heat pump
Replaces a furnace or central AC where ductwork already exists.
Ductless heat pump
Mini-split heads for homes without ducts – see ductless mini-splits.
Hybrid with your boiler
The heat pump handles most of the year; the existing boiler covers the coldest stretches.
Replacing an old AC
Swap an aging central AC for a heat pump and get efficient heating from the same equipment.
Rebates and Tax Credits
PSEG Long Island offers rebates on qualifying heat pump systems – see how the rebate program works. Amounts and eligible equipment change, so we check the current program for your specific equipment before you commit.
The federal 25C tax credit for heat pumps ended for equipment placed in service after December 31, 2025, so don’t count on it for a 2026 install. More in federal HVAC tax credits in 2026.
What a Heat Pump Costs
A full heat pump conversion on Long Island typically runs $14,000–$25,000, and ductless systems typically run $14,000–$28,000+ depending on zones. Electrical upgrades and ductwork changes are the biggest variables. See HVAC installation cost in Hicksville.
Heat Pump FAQ
Do heat pumps work in Long Island winters?
Cold-climate models are rated to keep producing heat in single-digit temperatures. Efficiency drops as it gets colder, which is why sizing matters – and why many homeowners keep their boiler as backup.
Do I have to remove my boiler?
No. Many Hicksville homes run a hybrid setup: the heat pump does most of the heating and all of the cooling, and the boiler takes over on the coldest days.
Is there still a federal tax credit for heat pumps?
The federal 25C credit ended for equipment placed in service after December 31, 2025. PSEG Long Island rebates are still the main incentive – we’ll help you check what your system qualifies for.
