Heat pump replacement in Ravenel: Upgrade your year-round comfort


What our heat pump replacement includes

Expert system matching 

We don’t simply install a similar-sized unit to your old one. Our technicians perform detailed load calculations considering your home’s current condition, any renovations or insulation improvements since your original installation, and your specific comfort preferences. This ensures your replacement heat pump precisely matches your home’s requirements—not oversized (which wastes energy and reduces humidity control) or undersized (which struggles during extreme conditions).

Quality equipment selection 

We install American Standard and Rheem heat pumps, brands specifically selected for their reliability in Ravenel’s demanding climate. These systems feature corrosion-resistant components that withstand our coastal air, multi-stage or variable-speed technology for optimal efficiency and comfort, and comprehensive warranty protection that safeguards your investment for years to come.

Ductwork evaluation and improvement 

Your new heat pump will only perform as well as the ductwork delivering the air. Our replacement process includes thorough ductwork inspection and, when needed, repair or modification of problematic ducts that may have developed leaks or damage over the years. We seal connections properly, insulate ducts in unconditioned spaces, and ensure proper sizing for balanced airflow throughout your home.

Smart control integration 

Modern heat pumps work best with advanced controls. We install and program smart thermostats that optimize operation between heating and cooling modes, learn your preferences, adjust automatically to save energy, and allow remote control via smartphone. This technology typically provides an additional 10-15% energy savings compared to basic thermostats while giving you unprecedented control over your comfort.

“Our 14-year-old heat pump was constantly running but couldn’t keep our Ravenel home comfortable in summer or winter. Blanton & Sons helped us select a properly sized replacement with modern features. The difference was immediate—every room stays comfortable now regardless of outside conditions, and our energy bills dropped by nearly 30% compared to last year!”

— Thomas, Ravenel Homeowner

What Our Customers Say

Anthony and James installed my new heat pump and were wonderful. They removed the old system, cleaned up the mess and installed the new system, checked the flow out of the vents and the air and heat. They were professional, pleasant, and thorough. This is our second house using Blanton and Sons and continue to be pleased.

Blanton & Sons crew recently removed our old ac and duct work, then installed a new mini split system. They have been a pleasure to deal with; prompt, ready to answer any questions my husband or I had, efficient, friendly, and knowledgeable. Just like with any big job there have been little tweaks to work out and they have been quick and ready to resolve any issue. Really enjoyed dealing with them. Thank you to the whole staff for your professionalism and kindness, all the way from the office to the install team!

Andrew did a thorough job on our furnace tuneup. He was very professional and explained what all he did in an informative, understandable way. He was very helpful in explaining our smart digital thermostat to us. We appreciated Andrew coming out.


When should I replace my heat pump instead of repairing it?

Age past 12–15 years, repeated or costly repairs, rising energy bills, or declining comfort are the usual signs. Because a heat pump runs year-round here, it accumulates wear faster than a heat-only system, so the replacement conversation tends to come a bit sooner.

How much does a new heat pump cost to install?

It varies with size, efficiency rating, and ductwork, so an accurate number needs an assessment. Replacement includes a $0 dispatch fee, a written upfront price, old-system removal, and financing including 0% for 12 months for qualified buyers. Call (843) 256-6454.

Will a new heat pump cut my year-round energy costs?

Likely yes, and more than a heat-only upgrade would, since the efficiency gain applies in both summer and winter. Replacing a 12+ year old unit with a high-SEER2 model can noticeably lower both cooling and heating bills. We’ll lay out the options and a payback estimate.

Should I replace both the indoor and outdoor units together?

Generally yes. Matching a new outdoor unit to an aging indoor air handler usually creates an efficiency mismatch, strains both parts, and can void warranty coverage. A matched replacement delivers the rated performance and lifespan.

Can I switch from a furnace to a heat pump when I replace?

Often, yes — and many Lowcountry homeowners do, because a heat pump consolidates heating and cooling into one efficient system well suited to our climate. We’ll assess your ductwork and electrical setup and tell you whether the switch makes sense for your home.
