Switching to a heat pump or adding a mini-split? McCorry Comfort has installed heat pump systems throughout Philadelphia, Montgomery County, Bucks County, and Delaware County since 2001. We size every system correctly with a Manual J load calculation — no guessing.
From whole-home replacements to single-zone mini-splits, we install the right system for your home — and we back it with 24/7 support.
Add heating and cooling to any room without ductwork. Mini-splits are ideal for additions, garages, finished basements, sunrooms, or homes without existing duct systems.
Replace your existing AC and furnace with a single ducted heat pump system. If your ductwork is in good shape, this is often the most cost-effective path to an efficient all-electric or dual-fuel system.
Standard heat pumps lose efficiency as temperatures drop. Cold-climate heat pumps like Mitsubishi Hyper Heat maintain rated capacity down to 5°F and produce heat all the way to -13°F — the right spec for Philadelphia winters.
A dual-fuel system pairs an electric heat pump with your existing gas furnace. The heat pump handles mild weather efficiently; the furnace takes over only on the coldest days — minimizing both fuel costs and equipment wear.
Replacing an existing heat pump that's reached end of life? We handle full system replacements including proper refrigerant recovery, line set evaluation, and sizing for your current home — not a like-for-like copy of the old system.
One outdoor unit serving multiple indoor heads lets you control the temperature independently in each zone. Efficient, quiet, and eliminates the "one thermostat for the whole house" problem.
Heat pump installations in Pennsylvania qualify for substantial rebates and tax credits. Here's what's currently available:
Rebate amounts and availability change. McCorry Comfort will walk you through current programs that apply to your specific installation at time of quote.
| Factor | Ductless Mini-Split | Ducted Heat Pump |
|---|---|---|
| Existing ductwork | Not needed | Required (or new install, adds cost) |
| Best use case | Additions, specific zones, no-duct homes | Whole-home replacement with existing ducts |
| Upfront cost (single zone) | $3,500–$6,500 installed | $8,000–$16,000+ for full system |
| Zone control | Independent per head unit | One thermostat (or zoning system) |
| Installation disruption | Minimal — 1 day or less | Moderate — ductwork access needed |
| Cold weather performance | Excellent with Hyper Heat | Good with cold-climate models |

We install systems from manufacturers we trust and stand behind:
We'll recommend the right brand and model for your home's heating and cooling load — not whatever has the best margin for us.
Based in Huntingdon Valley — we install heat pump systems throughout the Philadelphia metro area.
"McCorry installed a 3-zone Mitsubishi mini-split in our older home that has no ductwork. Clean install, runs great, and they explained exactly how to use it. Finally comfortable in every room."
"We went dual-fuel — heat pump with our existing gas furnace as backup. McCorry sized the system properly and walked us through the rebate paperwork. Significant energy savings first winter."
"Installed a Mitsubishi Hyper Heat to replace our old AC. They did the Manual J calculation and didn't just copy the old system's size like everyone else quoted. House heats and cools perfectly now."
Yes. Modern cold-climate heat pumps like Mitsubishi Hyper Heat are rated to heat efficiently down to -13°F. Philadelphia's average winter low is well above that. A properly sized heat pump handles the vast majority of Philadelphia winters without any backup heat needed.
Single-zone ductless mini-split: $3,500–$6,500 installed. Whole-home ducted heat pump replacement: $8,000–$16,000+ depending on system size and ductwork. After federal tax credits and utility rebates, your net cost can be significantly lower. We'll give you a detailed quote before any commitment.
The federal IRA provides a 30% tax credit up to $2,000/year for qualifying heat pump installations. PECO customers are eligible for additional utility rebates. We'll walk you through what applies to your installation at quote time.
If you have existing ductwork in reasonable condition, a ducted system is typically the most cost-effective whole-home solution. If you're adding heating/cooling to a specific space, or your home has no ductwork, a mini-split is usually the better fit. We'll assess your home before recommending either.
A single-zone mini-split typically takes 4–6 hours. A whole-home ducted system replacement takes one full day. Multi-zone mini-splits or systems requiring ductwork modifications may take 2 days. We'll give you a clear timeline upfront.
Yes — every installation, every time. Manual J is the ACCA-approved method for calculating your home's actual heating and cooling load. Skipping it means guessing at system size. Oversized or undersized systems fail early, are inefficient, and cause comfort problems. We don't skip it.
