Most heat pump installations in Morris and nearby Grundy County towns cost $8,500 to $16,500. A heat pump heats and cools with one outdoor unit, so the price depends on the size of your home, how well the heat pump handles cold weather and whether you keep your furnace as backup heat.
Heat Pump Installation Cost: Good, Better & Best
Typical installed prices for an average size home with ductwork in good shape, including equipment, labor and startup.
| Option | What you get | Typical installed cost |
|---|---|---|
| Good | Single-stage heat pump, 14.3+ SEER2 | $8,500 to $11,000 |
| Better | Two-stage heat pump, 15.2+ SEER2 | $11,000 to $13,500 |
| Best | Cold-climate variable-speed heat pump, 17+ SEER2 | $13,500 to $16,500 |
What Each Heat Pump Option Includes
Good: Single-Stage Heat Pump
Heats and cools with one outdoor unit at the lowest upfront cost of the three. It loses capacity as the temperature drops, so it pairs best with an existing gas furnace as backup heat.
Better: Two-Stage Heat Pump
Runs on its low stage most of the year for steadier temperatures and better humidity control, with lower electric bills than single-stage. Two-stage models rated 15.2 SEER2 and 8.1 HSPF2 and up can qualify for a ComEd instant discount.
Best: Cold-Climate Variable-Speed Heat Pump
Keeps heating efficiently on single-digit days and adjusts its output in small steps for the most even comfort and the lowest electric use. Systems rated 17 SEER2 and 8.5 HSPF2 and up qualify for ComEd’s largest heat pump discounts.
What Changes The Price Of A New Heat Pump
- Home size and capacity. A heat pump is sized to your home’s heating and cooling loads. An undersized heat pump leans on backup heat on cold nights.
- Backup heat. Many Grundy County homes keep their gas furnace as backup heat, a setup called dual fuel. Others use electric heat strips in the air handler. The choice changes the price and the winter bills.
- Cold-climate performance. Variable-speed cold-climate models cost the most and keep heating in deep cold without leaning on backup heat.
- Ductwork. Leaky ducts waste heating and cooling alike. Sealing or repairs usually add $500 to $2,000.
- Electrical. Some homes need an electrical upgrade for a heat pump and air handler.
