Heat Pump Installation in Melrose

Most heat pump trouble starts before the install. Equipment picked off the old boiler's rating. Heads placed where they fit, not where they work. Paperwork left for later. We run it the other way around. First, the house gets measured room by room: wall type, insulation, windows, ceiling height. Out comes a heat loss number per room. Next, we choose cold-climate equipment that can carry those rooms on the coldest nights, ducted where ducts make sense, ductless where they do not, often both. Then placement. Outdoor unit location, line set route, where each head sits relative to windows and furniture. You see all of it in a written proposal, along with the price, the rebate estimate and its conditions, and the HEAT Loan amount if you plan to borrow. Install day follows the plan. Floors covered. Lines dressed neatly. Thermostats wired. The outgoing equipment dealt with per the agreement. Then commissioning in both modes, a hands-on tour of the thermostats, and the incentive and loan paperwork finished at your table. One visit to measure. One install. No callbacks for undersized rooms. A note on Melrose houses specifically. Victorian parlors with eleven-foot ceilings, enclosed sleeping porches, kitchens added in three different decades. Each of those spaces loses heat at its own rate, and each gets its own line on the heat loss sheet. That sheet becomes part of your file, so if anyone asks later why a room got the head it did, the answer is on paper.
