Ducted heat pumps — whole-home, one system.
If your home already has ductwork, a ducted heat pump gives you central heating and cooling from a single efficient system — replacing an oil or gas furnace and an aging AC at once. Nexis can reuse or upgrade your ducts, size the system with Manual J, and file your Mass Save rebate and 0% HEAT Loan.
Why ducted
Central comfort that replaces two systems
For homes with existing ductwork, a ducted (central) heat pump is the cleanest path to efficient, whole-home comfort. One system delivers heat in winter and cooling in summer through the vents you already have — retiring both your fossil-fuel furnace and your old central AC.
We evaluate your existing ducts, seal or upgrade them where needed for efficiency, and size the equipment with a proper Manual J calculation. As an HPIN installer, Nexis files your Mass Save rebate and HEAT Loan so you capture the full incentive.
What you get with a ducted system
- One central system — whole-home heating and cooling through your existing vents.
- Duct evaluation & sealing — we assess and improve your ductwork so the system runs efficiently.
- Replaces furnace + AC — retire oil, propane, or gas heat and your aging air conditioner together.
- Cold-climate capacity — sized to hold heat through New England winters.
- Up to $8,500 Mass Save — $2,650 per ton, capped at $8,500 for a whole-home system, filed by us.
- 0% HEAT Loan — up to $25,000 at 0% interest.

Ducted FAQ
Answers, straight up

A properly sized ducted system can heat and cool an entire home, including through New England winters. We use a Manual J load calculation to size it correctly for your square footage, insulation, and climate.
Yes — a heat pump cools in summer and heats in winter, so it replaces both your furnace and your central air conditioner with one system.
Yes, when they meet whole-home requirements and use qualifying cold-climate, 2026-compliant equipment. As an HPIN installer, Nexis files the paperwork to secure the top tier.
