Heat pumps work in Woonsocket, RI. Modern cold-climate heat pumps — Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat, Daikin Aurora, Bosch IDS — are rated to operate down to -13°F. Woonsocket winters average a 28°F low. We size every install for your worst-case cold snap and we run the math against your actual past-12-months utility bills, not a manufacturer brochure. Woonsocket is heavy mill housing — three-deckers and densely packed singles, mostly older steam or hot-water boilers. Boiler replacements and ductless installs make up the bulk of our work in Woonsocket.
Clean Heat RI rebates stack: $1,500-$5,500 state (depends on income and system size), $2,000 federal IRA tax credit, plus National Grid utility incentives ($500-$3,000). Stacked total reaches $11,500 on qualifying installs. Horizon handles every form — state paperwork, utility paperwork, federal documentation. State and utility rebates post as instant credit on your invoice; federal credit you claim on next year’s tax return.
Our heat pump install process: free in-home assessment (sizing, ductwork audit, electrical capacity check), written flat-rate quote within 24 hours including the rebate-stacked total, install scheduled when paperwork clears (typically 2-3 weeks), 1-day install for ductless mini-splits, 2-3 days for ducted full-home retrofits. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and commission the system before we leave.

★★★★★“We called three other companies — two never called back, one wanted a deposit before they'd even quote. Horizon answered, came out the next morning, gave us a heat pump quote with the Clean Heat rebate already applied. We saved over $9,000 vs the original quote we got from a big-box installer.”
Up to $11,500 stacked: $1,500-$5,500 state rebate (depends on income + system size), $2,000 federal IRA tax credit, plus National Grid utility incentives ranging $500-$3,000.

Ducted full-system: 2-3 days. Ductless mini-split (1-3 zones): 1 day. Whole-home ductless (4+ zones): 2-3 days.

Yes — modern cold-climate heat pumps (Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat, Daikin Aurora, Bosch IDS) are rated to -13°F and we install them across RI year-round. Woonsocket winters average 28°F low. We size the system for your worst-case cold snap, not the average, and we run the math against your actual past-12-months utility bills. In 90% of Woonsocket installs, no backup heat is required. In the remaining 10% (large older homes, oil/propane backup baseboard), we keep the existing system as backup for the coldest 50 hours of the year.
Yes — every neighborhood including Constitution Hill, Cato Hill, Fairmount, and the surrounding 5 areas. ZIPs we install in: 02895.

Typical out-of-pocket after Clean Heat RI rebates: $4,000-$12,000 for ducted systems, $3,000-$10,000 for ductless, depending on system size and existing infrastructure. That’s 30-60% off the sticker price. We give you the rebate-stacked total in your free quote — not the pre-rebate sticker that fine-prints the savings. Pre-rebate sticker for context: $14,000-$22,000 ducted, $8,000-$18,000 ductless.
If you’re on oil or propane: yes, by 40-60% on annual heating cost. If you’re on natural gas: roughly comparable in winter, but you ALSO replace your AC and add dehumidification, so total annual HVAC cost is usually 15-25% less. We pull your past 12 months of bills and run the math in writing during the quote — no estimates, actual cost projection based on the BTU load and the heat pump’s efficiency curve.
