Frequently asked questions
How much does a heat pump cost in Quebec in 2026?
Wall-mounted (mini-split) 1-zone: $4,500-$7,500 installed. Multi-zone (3-4 indoor units): $9,500-$15,000. Central air-source heat pump: $11,000-$16,500. Air-water heat pump: $18,000-$32,000. Geothermal: $25,000-$45,000. After LogisVert ($6,700) + Chauffez vert ($1,275 if removing oil furnace) + federal heat pump credit ($5,000), net cost typically drops 40-60%.
What rebates are available for heat pumps in Quebec?
Stack 4 programs in 2026: (1) LogisVert (Hydro-Québec) up to $6,700 for ENERGY STAR heat pumps, (2) Chauffez vert (Quebec) up to $1,275 to remove oil/propane furnaces, (3) Greener Homes Loan (federal) up to $40,000 at 0% interest, (4) Federal heat pump tax credit up to $5,000. Total rebates: up to $13,250 direct + $40,000 zero-interest loan.
Does a heat pump work in Quebec winters at -25°C or -30°C?
Yes — modern cold-climate heat pumps (Mitsubishi Hyper-Heating H2i, Daikin Aurora, Fujitsu XLTH) maintain 80-95% capacity at -25°C and continue operating at -30°C with a COP near 1 (similar to electric resistance). For zones below -25°C frequently (Saguenay, Abitibi, Côte-Nord), pair with electric baseboard backup OR a high-efficiency wood stove. Standard heat pumps lose 25-50% capacity at -25°C and need supplementary heat.
Do I need a 200A electrical panel for a heat pump?
Depends on the model. Mini-split mono-zone: 10-20A circuit, 100A panel usually OK. Multi-zone (3-4 units): 20-35A, may need 200A. Central air-source: 30-50A, 200A recommended. Geothermal: 40-60A, 200A required. If your panel is 100A, plan for the upgrade ($2,000-$4,200) — often eligible for $500-$1,500 LogisVert bonus when combined.
Which heat pump brand is best for Quebec?
Top 3 for Quebec winters: (1) Mitsubishi Electric — Hyper-Heating H2i, the most installed brand, excellent service network, 12-year warranty. (2) Daikin — Aurora model, robust at -30°C, 12-year compressor warranty. (3) Fujitsu Halcyon — XLTH series, very strong at -25°C. Carrier, Trane, Lennox also reliable but smaller QC service network. Avoid no-name brands without local service.
How long does heat pump installation take in Quebec?
Mini-split 1-zone: 1 day. Multi-zone (3-4 units): 2-3 days. Central air-source (with existing ductwork): 2-3 days. Central with new ductwork: 4-6 days. Geothermal (with horizontal loop excavation): 5-10 days. Pre-evaluation Rénoclimat (mandatory if you want the Rénoclimat $5,200 rebate): adds 2-4 weeks.
