Stay comfortable year-round with energy-efficient ductless mini-splits, central air conditioning and cold-climate heat pumps that heat and cool from a single unit. Purdy's sizes each system to your home, installs it clean and to code, and dials it in to keep your energy bills down — not just for one summer, but for the life of the equipment.
A modern heat pump is one of the smartest upgrades a Nova Scotia home can make. It cools you through a humid South Shore summer and, because today's cold-climate units keep pulling heat from the outdoor air well below freezing, it warms you through most of the winter too — all from a single, efficient system. For many homes that means real savings compared with electric baseboard or oil heat, and a comfort level that a window unit simply can't match.
The catch is that a heat pump only delivers those savings when it's the right size and installed properly. Oversize it and it short-cycles, leaving rooms clammy and the compressor working overtime; undersize it and it runs flat-out on the coldest days and never quite keeps up. We start with a proper load calculation for your space, recommend equipment that actually fits it, and commission the install so it performs the way the label promises — quietly, efficiently, and for years.
Whether you want a single ductless mini-split to take the edge off one stubborn room, a multi-zone setup for the whole house, or central air conditioning tied into existing ductwork, we install, service and repair it all across Lunenburg and Queens County.
There's no single "best" system — only the best fit for your layout, your budget and how you live. Here's what we install, and where each one shines.
A wall-mounted indoor head paired with an outdoor unit — no ductwork required. Ideal for additions, finished basements, sunrooms or any room that's always too hot or too cold.
Purpose-built for Maritime winters, these units keep drawing usable heat from the outdoor air well below freezing — so one system handles comfortable cooling in summer and efficient heating most of the year.
Whole-home cooling that ties into your existing furnace ductwork, delivering quiet, even temperatures room to room. A great option for homes already set up for forced air.
One outdoor unit feeding several indoor heads, each with its own thermostat. Cool the bedrooms at night and the living areas by day — and only condition the rooms you're actually using.
Heat pumps move heat rather than burning fuel to make it, so a right-sized system can meaningfully cut what you spend heating and cooling compared with baseboard or oil.
Efficiency programs for heat pumps come and go, and eligibility depends on the equipment. We'll help you choose a qualifying system and point you toward the rebates available at the time of your install.
Cooling and dehumidifying in summer, efficient heat in the shoulder seasons and deep winter — one quiet system doing the work of two, controlled from a simple thermostat or remote.
A heat pump is a long-term investment in your home. It pays to have it chosen, sized and installed by a team that does this work day in and day out.
Fully licensed, insured and Red Seal certified — refrigerant handled and every system commissioned to code and to spec.
We calculate the load for your specific home instead of guessing — the single biggest factor in whether a heat pump is comfortable and efficient.
We steer you toward equipment that qualifies for available efficiency programs, so you capture the savings on both the install and your bills.
