Inverter-driven heat pumps are the most efficient HVAC technology available — variable-speed compressors that modulate from 30-100% capacity, delivering AC in summer and heat in winter from a single electric unit. Aerosphere specializes in Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat H2i (the only true cold-climate heat pump), Daikin variable-speed systems, and Carrier inverter heat pumps across Orange County.

Why install an inverter heat pump in Orange County?
Inverter heat pumps replace BOTH your AC and your furnace with one efficient electric unit. They qualify for $2,000 federal tax credit (25C) plus up to $8,000 federal IRA rebate plus $1,500-$3,000 SCE TECH rebate. Net cost is often $6,000-$12,000 after rebates — comparable to a premium AC alone.
Will a heat pump heat my home in winter?
Yes — Orange County winters rarely drop below 38°F, well within standard heat pump operating range. For foothill communities (Yorba Linda, Coto, Trabuco), Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat H2i works down to -13°F. Standard heat pumps are sized to handle 100% of OC heating load.
How much do I save with a heat pump vs. gas furnace?
Annual savings typically run $300-$800 vs. an 80% AFUE gas furnace, depending on usage. For homes with rooftop solar, savings often exceed $1,200/year because the heat pump runs on solar power. Heat pumps also eliminate SCG service charges if you remove gas service entirely.
What rebates can I get for a heat pump in 2026?
Federal: 25C tax credit up to $2,000, IRA HEEHRA rebate up to $8,000 (income-qualified). State: SCE TECH rebate $1,500-$3,000. Some cities offer additional electrification rebates. Aerosphere helps you apply for all available rebates — most customers net $4,000-$10,000 back.
