How Do Dual-Fuel HVAC Systems Work?
Dual-fuel systems are designed to deliver more powerful heating and cooling capabilities while using less energy than a traditional air conditioner and furnace setup. Instead, your HVAC technician will install a gas-powered furnace and electric heat pump.
The heat pump will supply most of your heating and cooling needs throughout the year. The furnace will kick in during the coldest days to provide faster and more powerful heating.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the pros and cons of dual-fuel HVAC systems?
The main benefit is that a heat pump can reduce energy use by up to 50% and ensure seamless comfort.
Dual-fuel systems are more expensive than a heat pump alone but comparable in size and cost to a new AC and furnace replacement.
Is a dual-fuel heat pump worth it in Baltimore?
Dual-fuel systems are most effective and energy-efficient in places like Baltimore, where temperatures vary throughout the year.
Combined with energy savings, the investment in a dual-fuel system is worth it.
How long do dual-fuel HVAC systems last?
On their own, gas furnaces last 15 to 20 years, and heat pumps last 10 to 15 years.
However, since you’re not relying on either system alone to provide your heating and cooling, dual-fuel systems may have a longer life span than other HVAC setups.
