Why a Cold Climate Heat Pump is Right for Colorado
Rebates Applied at Signing
Most Xcel gas customers in the Denver metro pay $14,800–$18,200 out of pocket for a cold-climate heat pump with a new gas furnace, after Xcel, Power Ahead Colorado and the Colorado credit (about $7,000 on a 3-ton system, $10,000 on a 5-ton). Before rebates that is $21,000–$28,000. Going fully electric with an air handler instead of a furnace runs about $500 to $800 more. Adding a heat pump to a furnace you keep is about $10,500–$14,000 out of pocket. Your quote depends on the equipment, size and ductwork.
Performs in Extreme Cold
Cold climate heat pumps deliver reliable heating even when temperatures drop to -13°F or below. Unlike standard heat pumps that lose efficiency around 30°F, these specially designed systems keep your home comfortable through Colorado's harshest winter days.
No Downside
Cold climate heat pumps integrate seamlessly with most existing Colorado homes. Whether you're replacing an old furnace, outdated heat pump, or electric baseboard heaters, installation is straightforward and doesn't require major structural changes.
Energy Savings
Your bill depends on the equipment, weather and utility rates. Heat pumps can reduce electricity use compared with resistance heating, but gas heat may cost less in winter. A dual-fuel system keeps the option to use gas when it is cheaper. Compare operating costs for your home before assuming savings or a payback period.

Our Homeowners Love Us
Here's what Denver homeowners say about working with UniCo.
Kent D.
We recently built an ADU and UniColorado installed our heatpump unit and we couldn't be happier with the process. They also helped us with the tax rebates/credits available and still offered a very competitive price compared to the other companies we vetted out. Would highly recommend.
Jeff M.
Installed Bosch Heat pump and found UniColorado personnel to be very knowledgeable and professional in sales and installation. Fairly priced and efficient in installation with excellent communication through the process.
Patrick B.
UniColorado did a great job replacing our old furnace with a new heat pump + backup furnace system. We've had it for a couple months and it's been working flawlessly. They had great communication and were very easy to work with. They also had the best pricing of all the companies I quoted.
Frances C.
I could not have asked for a better company: all communication was respectful, understanding and full of detailed information in response to specific questions. I was given on site photos, names and brands of products to research,, even links to apply for rebates, as well as payment options. Every part of the project was explained to me. The onsite project manner made a point of assuring me the exact placement I requested for cold climateheat pumps was guaranteed. I could go on and on. Suffice it to say: I highly recommend this exceptional state of the art company. Thank you.
Dave P.
These guys are fantastic! I found them after being turned off by the hard sell from another company. Professional--they listened, worked with me to meet my needs and ended up saving us a lot of money on a whole heat pump system. Quick, clean install... I'll be calling them from now on for anything heat related. I've already recommended them to a friend and its only been a week.

Quality is What We Care About
Cold-climate heat pumps are our specialty. The key difference from standard units: inverter-driven compressors that keep heating down to -13°F, not the 30°F cutoff of older models. We specialize in Mitsubishi, Carrier, and Bosch for their cold-climate performance, and every system is sized with a Manual J calculation specific to your home's envelope and Colorado's altitude.
