Heat Pump Installation & Replacement in Burlington, WI

Serving Heating Systems in Burlington Since 1978

H.J. Faust, Inc. has been installing and servicing heating and cooling systems for more than 45 years. With more than 20,000 clients served across southeastern Wisconsin, our NATE-certified, factory-trained technicians bring a level of experience to every heat pump project that’s hard to match. We install Lennox systems and service all major brands, including Carrier, Daikin, Goodman, Honeywell, Trane, and Bryant.

A heat pump moves heat between indoor and outdoor air rather than generating it, which makes proper installation critical. Duct design, airflow capacity, thermostat compatibility, and electrical requirements all factor into a successful outcome. We handle every part of that evaluation, not just the equipment placement.

When Installation or Replacement Makes Sense

Homeowners look at a new heat pump for different reasons. Some are building new or completing a major renovation and want a single system that handles both heating and cooling. Others are replacing aging equipment that’s become unreliable, inefficient, or difficult to source parts for. Most heat pumps have a service life of 10 to 15 years, and frequent repairs or declining comfort are often the clearest sign that replacement may be the better investment.

Before we recommend anything, we start with a thorough inspection. We review your goals, usage patterns, and property layout, and we won’t recommend more than your system actually requires. For replacements, our technicians evaluate duct condition, airflow balance, air handler compatibility, and refrigerant requirements. It’s a whole-system review, not just a look at the outdoor unit.

If your existing furnace is in good shape, a hybrid setup that pairs a heat pump with that furnace may be a cost-effective path that handles Wisconsin winters without over-investing in new equipment. You can also benefit from our heat pump services if a full replacement isn’t yet necessary.

Our Heat Pump Installation Process

Every installation starts with a detailed property inspection. From there, our team works through a complete system evaluation before a single piece of equipment is ordered.

What our installation process includes:

• Load calculations based on square footage and climate demands
• Duct layout and airflow capacity review
• Electrical system evaluation and panel capacity check
• Equipment selection from Lennox
• Thermostat or smart thermostat installation
• Final system testing and performance verification

Proper sizing matters. An oversized or undersized system can create comfort problems and efficiency loss that no amount of maintenance will fix. Our mechanics are trained through our structured Internal Apprenticeship & Development Program, a multi-year curriculum combining classroom instruction with hands-on field work under direct Senior Mechanic supervision. Every field and office employee also attends a minimum of four training sessions per year to stay current on new equipment, technologies, and processes.

Heat Pump Systems We Install

Not every home or project calls for the same equipment. We help you understand the differences between system types, efficiency ratings, and available features so you can make an informed decision.

Air Source Heat Pumps

Air source systems are the most common heat pump type and integrate well with existing ductwork. Modern cold-climate models maintain efficient operation even when outdoor temperatures drop well below freezing, which matters in a Wisconsin winter. We install Lennox heat pump systems and can walk you through model options and SEER2/HSPF2 ratings that fit your home’s needs.

Geothermal Heat Pump Systems

Geothermal systems draw heat from the ground rather than the outdoor air, delivering consistent efficiency regardless of how cold it gets outside. The upfront cost is higher than air source systems, but long-term operating costs and maintenance demands may be lower.

Ductless Mini-Split Systems

Mini-splits connect an outdoor unit to one or more indoor air handlers without requiring ductwork, making them a practical solution for homes without existing ducts or for adding zoned comfort to a specific room or addition.

Rebates & Incentives for Burlington Heat Pump Installations

Upfront equipment cost is a common concern, and several programs may help reduce what you pay out of pocket. For example, Wisconsin’s HEAR (Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates) program is income-qualified: households at or below 80% of area median income may qualify for rebates covering up to 100% of project cost, up to $8,000.

Lennox also offers seasonal manufacturer rebates on select equipment tiers, and Focus on Energy, Wisconsin’s statewide efficiency program, provides cash-back rebates for qualifying high-efficiency equipment through participating utilities. We can help you identify which equipment qualifies and what documentation is typically required.
