Year-Round Comfort, Built for the Lowcountry
A new heat pump is one of the smartest comfort upgrades you can make in Charleston. One system handles your heating in winter and your cooling in summer, with energy efficiency that beats most older split setups. At Carney & Son 72 Degrees, we install heat pumps that fit your home, your budget, and Charleston’s actual weather conditions. Three generations of our family have served Lowcountry homeowners for over 40 years, and every install we touch reflects that experience.
Why Charleston Homes Run on Heat Pumps
Heat pumps perform well in mild winters and humid summers, which is why they are a strong fit for Charleston homes. Instead of generating heat, they move heat in and out of your home, using less energy than a traditional furnace and AC combo, for many Lowcountry homeowners, that can translate to lower utility bills, simplified year-round comfort, and regular maintenance through one HVAC system.
A properly sized, professionally installed heat pump can also raise your home’s resale value. Buyers in Charleston pay attention to HVAC, especially after a tough summer.
Our Heat Pump Installation Process
We take new installs in stages so nothing gets rushed.
- In-home assessment. We measure your square footage, check insulation, look at duct condition, and ask about your comfort goals. We won’t quote a system until we’ve seen the home.
- Equipment selection. We walk you through energy-efficient options from leading manufacturers, with side-by-side comparisons on current SEER2 and HSPF2 ratings, warranty length, and total cost. No pressure, no upselling.
- Professional installation. Our licensed, bonded, and insured technicians handle the install start to finish. Our team handles the installation details, including permit coordination, line sets, electrical connections, refrigerant charge, thermostat setup, and a full system test.
- Post-install walkthrough. Before we leave, we show you how the system runs, how to operate the thermostat, and what maintenance keeps the warranty valid.

FAQ
How long does a heat pump installation take?
Most full installations take one day. Larger homes or new construction may take two.
Do you offer financing on new heat pumps?
Yes. We offer 0% financing for 18 months on approved credit. Ask about it during your assessment.
What size heat pump does my Charleston home need?
The right size depends on square footage, insulation, ductwork, and the layout of your home. We never quote off square footage alone. Every install starts with an in-home assessment.
Will a heat pump heat my home in a Charleston cold snap?
Modern heat pumps can handle Charleston’s coldest nights. For very rare deep cold events, most systems include backup electric resistance heat.
What warranties come with a Carney & Son heat pump install?
Every install includes a 2-year labor warranty from Carney & Son, plus the manufacturer’s parts warranty (usually 10 years on the compressor with registration).
