Mini Split Heat Pumps in the North Country
Cold-climate ductless heat pump installation — electrical work and install together.
A ductless mini split heat pump is one of the most efficient ways to heat and cool a North Country home or shop, and Belknap Electric handles the electrical work and the installation together. We install Gree and Haier ductless mini split systems across northern New Hampshire's North Country and Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, from our shop in Colebrook, so you have one crew responsible for the whole job rather than an electrician and an installer pointing at each other. Our team is EPA 608 certified to handle refrigerant, so the refrigerant side of the install is done to the standard the law requires.
Because we do the electrical work and the install, we size the circuit correctly the first time, place the indoor and outdoor units where they make sense, and tie the system into your panel cleanly — adding capacity if your service needs it. Rebate programs may apply in New Hampshire and Vermont for heat pump installations; ask us what is currently available and we will point you in the right direction without quoting amounts we cannot guarantee.

Why EPA 608 Certification Matters
A mini split heat pump runs on refrigerant, and federal law requires anyone who handles refrigerant during installation or service to hold an EPA 608 certification. That is not a paperwork detail — it is what keeps refrigerant from being vented into the atmosphere and what makes sure the system is charged and sealed correctly so it actually performs. When you hire an installer, ask whether their team is EPA 608 certified. Ours is, so the refrigerant side of your heat pump install is done to the standard the law requires and the system is set up to deliver through a North Country winter.

One Crew for the Whole Job
A heat pump is part heating and cooling equipment, part electrical project, and when two different companies handle those halves the details fall through the cracks — an undersized circuit, a unit placed where it does not perform, a panel that was never checked. Doing the electrical work and the install with one crew means the circuit is right, the panel is ready, and the system is set up to actually deliver through a North Country winter.
Mini Split Heat Pumps — Frequently Asked Questions
Do heat pumps work in cold North Country winters?
Cold-climate ductless heat pumps are designed to keep heating at low outdoor temperatures. We install units rated for cold climates so the system keeps working through northern New Hampshire and Vermont winters.
Do you do the electrical work and the installation?
Yes. We handle the electrical circuit, the panel tie-in, and the heat pump installation together, so one crew is responsible for the whole job.
Will my panel need an upgrade for a heat pump?
It depends on your service and the system. We check your panel capacity as part of the job and coordinate an upgrade when the heat pump calls for more capacity.
Are there rebates for heat pumps in NH and VT?
Rebate programs may apply in New Hampshire and Vermont. Ask us what is currently available and we will point you toward what fits your project without quoting specific amounts.
Can you install a heat pump in a shop or outbuilding?
Yes. Ductless heat pumps are a good fit for shops and outbuildings that need heat without running ductwork, and we handle the electrical work and installation.
