heat pump installation in Denver

Home to millions of people and growing quickly, the Denver Metro Area is leading the charge for heat pumps, sustainability, and electrification. Not only that, it’s quickly becoming one of the most forward-thinking and sustainable cities in the entire country.

Much of Denver’s growth and appeal comes from planning with sustainability in mind, and the city’s multiple Climate Action, Sustainability & Resiliency programs and rebates has led the (electrification) charge, which includes big plans for heat pumps! They also have a ton of great information on their Sustainability page indeed.

Denver, CO Heat Pump Rebates

Denver offers many rebates through the Denver Climate Action, Sustainability, and Resiliency rebate program. It’s important to note that these funds are available on a first come, first serve basis and may run out in the current calendar year. Denver has big goals for electrification, however, and we anticipate ongoing (even increased) funding for heat pumps. Unfortunately for 2025 and until further notice, the heat pump rebates from the City of Denver have been fully allocated.

Please ask us about these specifically to make sure you’re able to qualify. There are also additional rebates for grounds source heat pumps, electric panel upgrades, heat pump water heaters, and more. To see more details on this one, click here.

Heat Pumps + Energy Efficiency Rebates

Did You Know?

Going with a new heat pump is a perfect part of going net zero, a home electrification project, or just wanting to move away from burning fossil fuels in your home. Denver has a lot of different rebates for these projects too. Check out this link for more info.

Did you know that heat pumps work very closely and greatly benefit from other home energy efficiency projects as well?

Along with being on Xcel’s Heat Pump Approved Contractors List, we’re also approved on and can help you with their 25% rebate bonus for you through their Whole Home Efficiency Program!

Here are some common projects that work hand-in-hand and combine benefits with your new heat pump, and other efficiency rebates as well:

1) Energy Audits

Energy audits is the best place to start to determine home air leakage and poor insulation. There are not only local rebates, but also tax credits too! If you’ve had an audit done, we would love to use the report data to optimize your heat pump.

3) Insulation

After air sealing, insulation is usually the best money spent to increase home comfort and to slow down the rapid cooling and heating losses we have here in typical Colorado homes. Capitalize on Xcel’s insulation rebates and federal tax credits as well.

2) Air Sealing

After the energy audit, air sealing is the best bang-for-the-buck in terms of controlling your indoor air. By sealing up leaks, the heat pump (or any HVAC system) can work much more efficiently. Be sure to check out local Xcel air sealing rebates and federal tax credits.

4) Heat Pump Water Heaters

Heat pump water heaters is the most efficient method of heating water with electricity. You can usually save hundreds of dollars per year in utility costs by switching to one. And like the others, there are really great local Xcel rebates and tax credits available. But just know that this tax credit might eat into your new heat pump HVAC one!

What our clients say about us

We’re doing HVAC differently, and our customers benefit.

“Xerxes was incredibly helpful in figuring out cooling options for our house. He discussed specifics of our house and our cooling and heating needs with us and then gave us information on what size system we’d need, different efficiency ratings, pricing on different types of units, installation options and costs, and tax credits/utility rebates (Federal and State). He was able to provide this information both for heat pumps and traditional A/C units. He gave us all the information we needed to make the correct decision for our household. Xerxes is very knowledgeable on all things related to home heating and cooling systems!”

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My old furnace was 26 years old. It still worked, but its motherboard was outside of where it was supposed to be. It had been MacGuyvered by the last furnace repairman in 2019, who told me that the warehouse that kept Lennox replacement parts for their older models had been flattened by a tornado, so the older parts were no longer available. Today, I have a heat pump installed. The outside unit is so quiet that I can barely hear it from the back door, about 15 ft away. The installers just left about 30 minutes ago, and the temperature has already dropped 1°F. Plus heat pumps are far more energy efficient than regular furnaces, gas or electric. If you're in Denver metro and are looking for this same change up, may I recommend Just Heat Pumps? The company is owned by someone I used to work with at NREL, so I knew they'd be ethical. Their installers were wonderful at wrangling around my five cats, were on time, and worked hard and professionally over the course of the two-day installation.

They were great communicators throughout the entire process and completely transparent. This business actually cares about their customers and I can't recommend them enough.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I sensed a high degree of professionalism from the start.  Our finished basement can be uncomfortably cool and our garage can get really hot in summer.  We did a mini split in both locations.  Did try the basement one last night, so effective and quiet.  The poured in place pad for the unit outside is impressive.  All the people we had contact with were outstanding and all were willing to go out of their way for the customer.  Special accolades to our installers Ben/Ryan for an amazing job!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional, Affordable, Clean, & Organized! From the very first call to the final walk through of our new heat pump-based HVAC system, I received nothing but excellent communication and service from Just Heat Pumps. I saved THOUSANDS - more than TEN GRAND after qualifying for and stacking incentives and rebates to replace our 43 year old system. Just Heat Pumps made it easy by handling most of the paperwork. The installers (Justin and Kevin) were fast and friendly and the electrician (Evan) was so good that we're hoping he can do some other work for us. They took great care to lay down drop cloths and to clean up after themselves. Not one single piece of trash or even dust was left behind. Super easy to work with - I've already recommended Just Heat Pumps to my friends and family, now I'm recommending them to you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tom came by to take some measurements, readings etc to prepare a quote. I was very happy with his work - he is very knowledgeable, friendly and was all round a pleasure to have visit my home. I am looking forward to the quote and would be very comfortable with having him do the work. Update a few months later: I went with JHH for my heat pump, and I am very glad that I did. They did a fantastic job, quoted very competitively, installed a high quality unit, and have been extremely responsive with my questions after the fact. There was a small issue with my electrical circuit (not the unit itself) and the owner came down in the middle of the night at 3f to bring space heaters to keep us comfortable until a fix could be made. I am extremely grateful and would recommend JHH completely.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just Heat Pumps was really wonderful to work with as we installed a heat pump in our house to replace a gas furnace and AC. Initially, I took out multiple quotes from other recommended HVAC companies but overall I felt like I wasn't getting the time and attention to my home's issues. I had major temperature differentials between the 1st and 2nd floor and air pressure differences in rooms that compounded the issue. It seemed like other companies didn't really take that seriously. I also got multiple different heat pump size recommendations. So I took about 6 months to research the science and by the end of that I finally found Just Heat Pumps with a very scientific and responsive approach. During the first visit, they really spoke about the system in a way that matched my research. The quote they provided was very straightforward and they did not deviate from that original pricing. The installation process was very professional and the folks kept my house nice and clean, with quality installation of the air handler and ducting. Based off the pressure differentials, the installation team came up with a inventive, yet cost effective duct system that allows air to circulate throughout the rooms upstairs without light and sound transfer (to help my baby). They also worked with an electrician that knew his stuff (Ampro) and he set us up nicely, futureproofing our house. Xerxes and team have visited multiple times since installation to check on performance and are very responsive. Plus their website has lots of helpful info on rebates, etc. Overall, Just Heat Pumps was great to work with. Compared to others, their prices seem slightly higher, but I would say that it is a premium well worth it. With performance, the Fujitsu heat pump did well in the recent cold snap. It was also helping in the tail end of the summer with the hot upstairs. The overall comfort of the house is much improved. It will also help us keep our home more protected from poor air quality on the front range. We used to need to open and close windows a lot to get air flow. I would say that using a heat pump has increased our warming electricity costs but brought down our gas usage significantly. I wouldn't say it is saving us money in the winter, just shifting costs to electricity. Overall,  we highly recommend them!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish we had a great experience with Just Heat Pumps. They helped us navigate the very confusing set of rebates and credits to ensure we maximized our savings. They guided us in performing worthwhile upgrades to our home insulation and sealing to optimize the size of heat pump (again, saving money and energy).  They were helpful, professional, great communicators, and really took care of everything along the way. My wife and I appreciated the way they gave us the information we needed without overwhelming us. Their installation staff were dedicated to getting our system installed and configured exactly as we need it and keeping the space cleaned up after them. Our house is more comfortable, we have a smart thermostat, and it's great peace of mind knowing it will last for a long time. The new system takes up less space inside and they located the exterior part in a better location compared to our old A/C unit. In talking to them we heard about their practices for proactive outreach in case any issues come up with the hardware. I'm confident we can rely on their service if a need arises in the future. Our thanks goes out to Xerxes, Erin, and their crew!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn't have been happier with every aspect of working with Just Heat Pumps.  When I first decided to get a heat pump, a different company was referred to me, and meeting with them was not great.  They didn't give me enough information.  I'm so glad I waited and found Just Heat Pumps.  They gave me so much more information and communication was always clear and thorough.  Erin and Xerxes were both wonderful.  And they have followed up with me and been out to make sure everything is perfect.  I am very satisfied with my heat pump. I have been through a cold winter with it, but not yet through a summer.
