New installations that require ductwork modifications, electrical panel upgrades, new concrete pads, or multiple zone setups may take 2 to 3 days. Mini-split installations with 2 to 4 indoor heads typically take 1 to 2 days. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed timeline in your proposal, schedules the installation at a time that works for you, and keeps you informed on progress throughout the project at your Taunton property.
Yes. A heat pump provides both heating and cooling from a single outdoor unit by reversing the refrigerant cycle between seasons. Modern cold-climate heat pumps with variable-speed inverter compressors operate efficiently down to 0 to minus 15 degrees Fahrenheit. In extremely cold MA climates, a dual-fuel configuration pairs the heat pump with a gas furnace that engages as backup only below the economic balance point — the temperature where gas heating costs less per BTU than electric heat pump operation. This gives you heat pump efficiency for 80 to 90 percent of the season with gas backup for the coldest days. KIC Refrigeration designs the right configuration for your Taunton climate zone and heating needs.
