About Ruud Heat Pumps

Ruud heat pump highlights:

  • Inverter variable-speed compressors
  • Up to 20 SEER2 / 10.0 HSPF2
  • Low-GWP R-454B refrigerant

Installation Cost

Heat Pump & Central AC Installation Cost

Here is roughly what a new heat pump or central AC costs to install, using current national averages.

SystemTypical installed cost (U.S. average)
Heat pump (installed)$4,237 - $7,941
Full ducted system (avg)$9,500 - $17,000
Central AC (installed)$3,900 - $7,900

Per Angi and HomeAdvisor (2026): a heat pump installs for about $4,237 to $7,941 (average $6,085), and a full ducted system runs $9,500 to $17,000; a central AC alone is about $3,900 to $7,900. NYS Clean Heat and utility rebates can offset a large share. Size, efficiency, and ductwork drive the final price.

Installation

Heat Pump Installation

Every Ruud heat pump or central AC we install starts with a Manual J load calculation, so the system is sized right, not oversized. We match the indoor coil or air handler to the outdoor unit (an AHRI match), set the refrigerant charge precisely, run the line set, and handle the electrical and thermostat.

Correct charge and airflow are what unlock the rated SEER2 and HSPF2, so we commission every system by the numbers and walk you through NYS Clean Heat rebates. See our heat pump installation page.

Repair & Maintenance

Heat Pump Repair & Maintenance

Not heating, not cooling, iced up, or short cycling? Our factory-trained technicians diagnose and repair Ruud heat pumps and central AC fast, with 24/7 emergency service across Suffolk and Nassau County, checking refrigerant, the compressor, reversing valve, and controls.

A yearly tune-up keeps efficiency up and catches small problems early. See our heat pump repair and AC maintenance pages.

Replacement

Heat Pump Replacement

When a system is on R-22, beyond economical repair, or just tired, replacing it with a modern inverter Ruud heat pump can cut bills and add cold-climate comfort. We will tell you honestly whether to repair or replace and right-size the new system.

We handle removal, the AHRI-matched indoor unit, refrigerant, and available rebates, all with a free estimate up front. Compare ductless options in AC mini-split brands.

When To Call

Signs Your Heat Pump Needs Repair

Catching these early usually means a smaller, cheaper fix. Call us if your Ruud heat pump shows any of the following:

  • No heating or cooling, or weak airflow
  • Blowing warm air in cooling mode (or cold in heat mode)
  • Ice or heavy frost on the outdoor unit
  • Short cycling (turning on and off too often)
  • Grinding, buzzing or rattling noises
  • Rising energy bills
  • It will not switch between heating and cooling
  • Water or refrigerant leaks
When To Replace

Signs You Need a Replacement

Repair is not always the smart money. It is usually time to replace when you see:

  • The system is 12-15+ years old
  • It still uses R-22 (Freon) refrigerant
  • Repairs are getting frequent or expensive
  • It can no longer keep up in heat or cold
  • Rising energy bills as efficiency drops
  • You want inverter efficiency and NYS Clean Heat rebates
