A central ducted heat pump is a heating and cooling system that uses your home’s existing ductwork (just like a furnace or central air conditioner). Unlike a traditional furnace that generates heat by burning fuel, a heat pump works by moving heat from one place to another — keeping your home warm in winter and cool in summer.


Think of it as one system that does the job of both a furnace and an air conditioner

How It Works

1. Heating Mode (Winter)

  • The outdoor heat pump unit absorbs heat from the outside air (yes, even in cold weather)
  • A refrigerant inside the system captures this heat and carries it indoors
  • The indoor unit transfers that heat to the air inside your ducts
  • Warm air is then circulated throughout your home

2. Cooling Mode (Summer)

  • The process reverses
  • The heat pump pulls heat from the air inside your home
  • That heat is moved outdoors, and cool air is pushed through your ducts — just like central AC

3. Air Circulation

  • A blower fan inside the indoor unit moves conditioned air through your duct system
  • This ensures even heating and cooling across the entire home

Benefits of a Central Ducted Heat Pump

  • Year-round comfort – heats in winter, cools in summer
  • Energy efficient – moves heat instead of burning fuel, cutting energy costs
  • Cleaner operation – no combustion, no indoor emissions
  • Consistent comfort – works with existing ductwork for whole-home heating and cooling
  • Quiet and modern – advanced technology makes them quieter and more efficient than older systems

A central ducted heat pump is a smart, energy-efficient system that provides both heating and cooling through your home’s ductwork. It replaces or works alongside a traditional furnace and air conditioner, giving you year-round comfort from one system. At Skyra Heating & Cooling Ltd., we provide professional installation tailored to your home and family’s needs.

What Happens During Installation

1. Home Assessment & System Design
  • Evaluate your home's size, insulation, and ductwork condition
  • Recommend the right system size and efficiency rating
  • Design the setup to maximize airflow and energy efficiency
2. Safe Removal of Old Equipment
  • Disconnect and remove your old furnace, AC, or heat pump (if replacing)
  • Prepare the installation area for the new indoor air handler and outdoor unit
  • Inspect and update ductwork if needed to ensure proper airflow
3. Installing the New System
  • Place and secure the outdoor heat pump unit on a stable pad
  • Mount the indoor air handler and connect it to existing ductwork
  • Install the refrigerant line set, condensate drain, and electrical connections
  • Ensure proper insulation and sealing for maximum efficiency
4. Testing & Commissioning
  • Pressurize and vacuum the refrigerant lines, then charge the system
  • Test blower, compressor, and reversing valve in both heating and cooling modes
  • Check thermostat operation, safety controls, and duct airflow balance
  • Confirm quiet, efficient performance and correct refrigerant levels
5. Homeowner Walkthrough
  • Show you how to operate the thermostat and system modes
  • Explain filter changes and basic care
  • Provide maintenance tips to keep the system running efficiently for years
