Do Heat Pumps Work in the Winter?
There is still a lingering belief that heat pumps only work in mild, more southern climates. That may have been true decades ago. It is not true today. The modern cold-climate heat pumps installed by Royal River Heat Pumps are engineered specifically for northern winters. The real question is not whether they work. It is how they perform when temperatures drop, and whether they are installed correctly.

Ducted Heat Pumps vs. Mini-Splits: What’s Best for Your Maine Home?
Both ducted heat pumps and ductless mini-splits can perform extremely well in Maine. The right choice comes down to your home’s layout, existing ductwork, comfort goals, and how the system is designed. At Royal River Heat Pumps, this is one of the most common conversations we have with homeowners, and our answer is always, “The equipment matters. The design matters more.”

Will Heat Pumps Save You Money in Maine?
Yes, in many Maine homes upgrading to a heat pump will lower energy bills. For every unit of electricity consumed, a heat pump can deliver multiple units of heat energy into the home. That efficiency advantage is what makes cost savings possible in many scenarios. Homeowners who are replacing oil, propane, or electric resistance heat often see meaningful reductions in their annual heating costs after installing a properly designed cold-climate heat pump. But savings are not automatic, and they are not identical in every situation.

1/27/2023: Just wanted to thank the entire crew led by Travis. Everyone was so professional, polite, and respectful. My questions were answered fully. Having Travis oversee the installation, design and coordinating with the electrical that needed to be done was key. The entire experience from booking, implementation, billing and follow-up was great and I’m happy with the heat pumps thus far.

Have a great weekend!

5/22/2023: Great company to work with from start to end. They went above and beyond to meet our needs. Highly recommend and we'll certainly use their services again.

4/21/2021: I cannot recommend Royal River Heat Pumps highly enough. We built and moved into a new home Fall, 2020. Our aim was to build an energy efficient, low maintenance home. Our contractor recommended a Heat Pump system for our heating needs and recommended Royal River. I was highly skeptical of a heat pump system. Royal River was great, patient and willing to spend plenty of time explaining and demonstrating the systems. Scott Libby was very professional, answered all my questions and adjusted the design to meet our needs. Much of my hesitation was based upon simply being unfamiliar with today's heat pump systems and their capacities. Royal River installed our system from the ground up and we have come through our 1st Maine winter. I have never been warmer inside a home than I was this past winter with the heat pump system. We do not have a secondary heating system but for a gas fireplace used for "ambience". The heat pumps more than sustained us very comfortably. In addition, the air quality is noticeably cleaner. I cannot say enough good things about the system (Mitsubishi) or Royal River Heat Pumps. And I have never been motivated to write a Google review before. This product and this company have earned it - both terrific.
Vilean T.
05/10/2023: We are very pleased with our new system. Granville and the team did a great job and Jay was extremely helpful in explaining how to operate the system. And all the members of the installation team uniformly said what a great company it is to work for. That is a real testament to the company you have built.
Best wishes
