Red Seal CertifiedWhat System Are You Replacing in Kentville?
A ducted heat pump replaces your existing furnace, boiler, or baseboard system with a single whole-home unit. Every home has a different starting point — here's how a centrally ducted heat pump fits yours.
Oil Furnace → Ducted Heat Pump
The most common conversion in the Annapolis Valley. If your home has a forced-air oil furnace, the existing ductwork makes this a straightforward switch. Eliminate oil dependency and gain whole-home cooling.
Electric Baseboard → Ducted Heat Pump
Electric baseboard homes need new ductwork, but the savings are substantial — 50–70% lower heating costs because heat pumps deliver 3–4× more heat per kilowatt of Nova Scotia Power electricity.
Oil Boiler / HWBB → Ducted Heat Pump
Oil hot water baseboard (HWBB) is popular in the Valley. Converting requires new ductwork installation, but you eliminate oil costs entirely and gain whole-home cooling and dehumidification.
Aging Furnace → Modern Ducted System
If your forced-air furnace is approaching end-of-life, replacing it with a ducted heat pump gives you both heating and cooling in one efficient system.
Why Do Kentville Homeowners Choose Ducted Heat Pumps?
Ducted heat pumps deliver up to 60% energy savings over traditional heating by using your existing ductwork with cold-climate technology rated to -30°C.
The Annapolis Valley has roughly 4,000–4,200 heating degree days annually. January lows average around -12°C with cold snaps reaching -25°C. The Valley's geography provides some shelter from maritime storms, but oil heating remains the dominant source — making this region ideal for ducted heat pump conversions.
Kentville Climate Challenges
- 14,000–4,200 heating degree days annually with cold snaps to -25°C
- 2Oil heating is the dominant system — oil hot water baseboard and oil forced-air furnaces
- 3No natural gas service available in the Annapolis Valley
- 4Many older farmhouses and rural properties with varying ductwork quality
- 5Rising oil costs hit rural Valley homeowners particularly hard
How Ducted Heat Pumps Help
- Cold-climate ducted heat pumps rated to -30°C for reliable Valley heating
- Homes with oil forced-air furnaces already have ductwork ready for conversion
- One system replaces furnace and adds whole-home cooling for increasingly warm summers
- Dramatically lower operating costs versus oil — the Valley's primary heating fuel
- Valley geography provides slightly milder winters than coastal Nova Scotia

"I ONLY WISH THEY INSTALLED OUR HEAT PUMP ORIGINALLY"
Great company to deal with. We hired them to move an existing heat pump after the original installer refused to help us. The estimator and the installer were both very polite, careful and thorough. I only wish they installed our heat pump originally. I would hire them again without hesitation.
