What does a heat pump cost?
At present, a government approved installer must supply and install your heat pump for it to qualify for CleanBC rebates. This can be costly (even if traditional wisdom is followed and three quotes are obtained). We recommended that you ask for itemized pricing so that installation costs are shown separately from the cost of the heat pump itself.
Installing your own heat pump
If you are comfortable with tools you can install your own heat pump and save thousands of dollars. But you won't get any CleanBC rebates of Canada Greener Homes Grants. Kootenay resident Bruce Murdoch shows us how in this blog.

Some Heat Pump Cost Examples:
- Costco is selling an 18,000 BTU heat pump, full kit with a 12' lineset for $1399.
link - Home Depot's website lists heat pumps for from $1745 (18k BTU) to $3790 but $3790 gets you a big outdoor unit and 3 indoor air handlers. Units that are smaller than 18k are less expensive and may meet your needs depending on your home.
link - Senville lists an 18,000 BTU heat pump at $1999.99. It includes free shipping, a 16' line set that is pre-charged with refrigerant to save time and trouble installing. Note: Senville requires a certified install or the warrantee is void. Some heat pump suppliers include the warrantee no matter who installs it. Be sure to check before you buy.
