Heat pumps in West Hollywood

One system for warm summers and cool nights, with the city's incentives checked first.

West Hollywood actively points residents toward heat pumps through its Electrify WeHo programme.

Electrify WeHo directs residents to heat pump incentives, including The Switch Is On and the federal tax credit. Terms change, so we give you model numbers to check before you buy. Power is delivered by SCE, with Clean Power Alliance as the default supplier.

The climate suits a heat pump: August highs around 81°F and January lows around 46°F, both well inside its efficient range, with headroom sized in for spells like the 111°F record.

Choosing the type

Ducted

For houses and units with sound ducts, replacing the furnace and AC together.

Ductless

For apartments with wall heaters and no ducts; see our mini split page.

Climate zone 9 tests

Charge verification and duct tests on the install.

Hillside homes above the Strip

Houses above the Sunset Strip often have the space for a ducted system and the outdoor unit.

Next steps

For buildings without ducts, see ductless mini splits. The permit route and construction hours are on our AC installation page. A heat pump that has stopped cooling is a repair: see AC repair. Questions? Send us the details.
