All-in-One Heating & Cooling: Air Conditioner Heater Combo Systems

Air Conditioner Heater Combo

Looking to simplify your home’s HVAC system and reduce your monthly energy costs? A heater and air conditioner combo—also known as a cold climate air source heat pump—may be the perfect solution. At Superior Co-Op HVAC, based in Cambridge, NY, we specialize in installing Mitsubishi Electric Hyper-Heating and Cooling systems designed to operate efficiently in all four seasons. These innovative systems eliminate the need for separate heating and cooling units and dramatically cut down on fossil fuel usage. Best of all, they qualify for significant NYSERDA rebates, tax incentives, and federal energy credits.

Understanding Air Source Heat Pumps

Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are advanced systems that both heat and cool your home by transferring heat between the indoors and outdoors. In the summer, they act like traditional air conditioners, extracting heat from your home. In the winter, they reverse the process—even working efficiently in temperatures as low as -13°F.

How They Work:

  • Summer: Pull warm air out of your home and release it outdoors.
  • Winter: Extract heat from outdoor air and bring it inside.

This efficient process helps homeowners save up to 50% on their energy bills when switching from oil or electric resistance heating.

Advantages of Air Conditioner Heater Combos

✅ Energy Efficiency

Air source heat pumps can provide 3–4 times more heat energy than the electricity they consume. This makes them one of the most energy-efficient HVAC options available today.

✅ Dual Purpose Comfort

With one system handling both tasks, you reduce equipment costs, installation time, and space needed for multiple units.

✅ Green Technology

These systems reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help you lower your carbon footprint. Many models use R-410A refrigerant, a more environmentally responsible option.

✅ Healthier Indoor Air

With multi-stage filtration, Mitsubishi systems remove dust, allergens, and odors. It’s the perfect solution for households with pets, kids, or respiratory sensitivities.

✅ Ultra-Quiet Operation

Mitsubishi’s Hyper-Heating systems are engineered for near-silent performance, allowing for a peaceful home environment.

✅ Flexible Install Options

Whether it’s a new build or retrofit, you can choose from:

These custom-fit options make installation seamless with minimal disruption.


Considerations Before Installing

While these systems offer incredible benefits, it’s important to understand their limitations and plan accordingly.

⚠️ Higher Initial Cost

Although upfront costs may be higher, available rebates and long-term energy savings more than make up for the investment.

⚠️ Cold Weather Performance

While Mitsubishi heat pumps are designed for cold climates, supplemental heat may be recommended during extreme conditions below -13°F.

⚠️ Maintenance

Routine maintenance (filter cleaning, refrigerant checks) ensures peak efficiency. We offer affordable service plans exclusively for our installed systems.

⚠️ Aesthetic Preferences

Some may not prefer visible indoor units like wall-mounted heads. However, options like ceiling cassettes and ducted systems can address this concern.
