What is Heat Pump Right-Sizing?

A home’s heating system is a major investment that impacts energy costs and emissions. Many heat pumps are sized incorrectly, leading to inefficiencies and higher costs. Our Heat Pump Right-Sizing Service ensures you get the best system for your home by performing in-depth assessments beyond a standard EnerGuide evaluation.

How Can This Service Help?

The Heat Pump Right-Sizing Service helps you choose a heat pump that fits your home’s specific needs. By getting it right the first time, you can avoid costly oversizing or undersizing mistakes, reduce energy bills, and ensure year-round comfort. Our expert assessment provides the data you need to make an informed decision, so you can invest with confidence in an efficient, properly sized system.

An improperly sized heat pump can result in:

❌ Higher energy bills – A unit that’s too large or too small will work harder than necessary, driving up costs.

❌ Poor performance – Incorrect sizing can cause inconsistent temperatures and excessive cycling.

❌ Unnecessary expenses – Overpaying for an oversized system or dealing with costly breakdowns over time.

Our service ensures your heat pump is correctly sized, which can:

 ✅ Reduce heating costs by $2,000–$3,000 per year, especially if switching from oil, propane, or baseboard heating.

 ✅ Maximize efficiency, so your system doesn’t waste energy.

 ✅ Extend system lifespan by reducing strain on the unit.

 ✅ Ensure you qualify for rebates by choosing the right system.

 

Our expert team conducts:

• F280 heat loss and heat gain calculations to determine your home’s exact heating and cooling needs.
• Electrical panel capacity evaluation to ensure compatibility with a new heat pump.
• Duct capacity testing using a TrueFlow meter to confirm airflow suitability.
• Quote review of up to three (3) heat pump proposals to ensure they align with our assessment.

 

We do not recommend specific contractors or equipment, but we can help provide you with the data to make an informed decision.

How Much Does It Cost?

The cost of our heat pump sizing service is $600+tax total, and includes a full Energuide Home Energy Assessment. 

NOTE: If you have already completed an EnerGuide assessment with Green Venture in the last 12 months and have not made major home envelope changes, we can use your existing data to complete this service. Reduced pricing details are available upon request.

You may also be eligible for rebates through the Home Renovation Savings Program or the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program — and by working with us you can combine them with the interest-free Canada Greener Homes Loan.
