How Heat Pump Replacement Works

From your first call to a comfortable home, usually completed in one day.

01
Free In-Home Assessment

We inspect your existing system, review your home's insulation and layout, and calculate the correct capacity for a replacement heat pump. You receive a written quote before we leave.

02
Cold-Climate Model Selection

Not all heat pumps perform well in Ontario winters. We help you choose a cold-climate model rated to operate efficiently down to -25 C so you stay comfortable all season.

03
Same-Day Installation

Most heat pump replacements are completed in one day. Our crew removes the old unit, installs the new system, and confirms both heating and cooling before leaving.

04
Permit, Inspection, and Rebate Paperwork

EcoFrost pulls the required permit and arranges the municipal inspection. We also help you identify which provincial and federal rebate programs your new system qualifies for.

Government Rebates Up to $10,000

The Canada Greener Homes Grant offers up to $5,000 for qualifying heat pump replacements. Homeowners switching from oil heat may qualify for up to $10,000 through the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program. EcoFrost will walk you through every available rebate at your estimate.

Common Questions About Heat Pump Replacement

How much does heat pump replacement cost in Ontario?

A complete heat pump replacement in Ontario typically costs $4,500 to $10,000 installed. A standard air-source heat pump runs $4,500 to $6,500. A premium cold-climate variable-speed model costs $7,000 to $10,000. Prices include permits, labour, refrigerant, and disposal. EcoFrost offers 0% financing on approved credit.

Can I get a rebate for replacing my heat pump in Ontario?

Yes. The Canada Greener Homes Grant offers up to $5,000 for qualifying heat pump installations, and the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program offers up to $10,000 for homes switching from oil. Enbridge Gas and local utilities may offer additional rebates. Ask your EcoFrost technician which programs apply to your situation.

Will a heat pump work in a Toronto winter?

Modern cold-climate heat pumps are rated to operate efficiently down to -25 C. Older or entry-level models lose efficiency below -10 C. EcoFrost only installs heat pumps with appropriate cold-weather ratings for the Ontario climate.

How long does heat pump replacement take?

Most replacements are completed in one day by a two-person EcoFrost crew. The old unit is removed, the new system is installed and commissioned, and both heating and cooling modes are tested before we leave.

Should I replace my heat pump with another heat pump or switch to a gas furnace?

Both options are valid. A heat pump offers year-round heating and cooling in one unit with lower operating costs when electricity rates are favorable. A gas furnace paired with a central AC may be more cost-effective if you have access to natural gas. EcoFrost can walk you through the operating cost comparison for your home.
