Why NP Environmental

Engineers, not salespeople

Since 2004, we've designed and installed heat pumps the same way: measure first, engineer second, sell never. As a Mitsubishi ELITE Diamond Contractor — the top tier — we work with equipment we know inside out.

  • full Manual J heat-loss calculation first
  • Our own crews — no subcontractors, ever
  • Commissioned against the design, then NP Shield™

Thorough Every Time

Why it takes us a week — and them an hour

There are companies in this county writing proposals in your driveway inside an hour. Ask yourself what they measured. A heat pump is engineered for decades of service — the design takes an afternoon to get right and a lifetime to get wrong. Cheap is expensive.

  1. 1

    A full Manual J heat-loss calculation

    We measure how much heat your house actually loses at Central New York design temperatures — not a number multiplied off your square footage, and never the size printed on the old furnace tag.

  2. 2

    Designed in Mitsubishi’s own software

    System selection and line-set design run through the manufacturer’s design tools, with the refrigerant charge set by calculated weight rather than guessed.

  3. 3

    Nitrogen pressure test on every air-source job

    Every joint is pressure-tested with nitrogen before the system is charged — we do not braze on air.

  4. 4

    Evacuation below 500 microns

    We pull the system down below 500 microns and measure it. Most contractors do not measure it — and cannot show you.

  5. 5

    The readings, handed over unasked

    You receive the calculations, the test readings, and the as-built schematic without having to ask. Then the NP Shield™ 10+2-year labor warranty clock starts.

  6. It takes us about a week. It takes them an hour. You will live with the difference for decades.

Case study · Thorough Every Time

Another company called the unit dead. We washed a filter.

  1. 1

    She had our proposal. She went with someone cheaper. This summer that installer told her a power surge had killed the unit and every component needed replacing.

  2. 2

    She called us. Our technician reconnected the wiring they had pulled apart and switched it on. It tripped on high pressure. He opened the blower cabinet — so much standing water inside, and so much suction against the panel, he could not lift the cover off. He pulled the filter. It had never once been washed, only vacuumed.

  3. 3

    He rinsed it. The system ran. Nothing was dead. Nothing needed replacing. It needed somebody to look properly.

This is not a rare story. Last winter a homeowner who had bought elsewhere called us because she could not reach her own installer’s service department. We spent twenty-five minutes on the phone walking her through a reset so she had heat that night. She was not our customer. We did it anyway.

Get a second opinion on your system

“You guys quoted us. We got what we paid for.”

A homeowner’s own words, this summer, after a cheaper contractor told her the system was dead

We are not the cheapest company in this county. We are the one that is still answering the phone in year eight. It’s the same reason our proposals take a week: we take the time, and our systems are sized properly.

The efficiency math · New York State programs

300–500%

Seasonal efficiency of a geothermal heat pump: three to five units of heat per unit of electricity.

Cold-climate air-source systems deliver 200–300%. A new gas furnace tops out at 80–95%, and an oil boiler buys every unit of heat by the gallon. New York's incentive programs cut the upfront cost before you spend a dollar — and we file the paperwork.

Straight answers

Questions we hear every week

Answers from a team of engineers. Don't see yours? Call (315) 841-8730 — we're glad to help.

Should I choose geothermal or an air-source heat pump?

Both are right answers — the right one depends on your house, your land and your budget. Geothermal draws heat from the ground through a buried loop; a cold-climate air-source system draws it from the outdoor air. At the free home assessment our engineers match the system to your home and put the numbers in writing.

Are heat pumps effective in cold Central New York winters?

Yes. Modern cold-climate heat pumps are engineered to deliver strong, efficient heat well below freezing, and we size every system specifically for our region’s winters.

How much can I save with a heat pump?

Savings vary by home and the system you’re replacing, but because a heat pump moves heat instead of burning fuel, many Central New York homes see a meaningful drop in heating and cooling costs.

Do you handle permits and rebate paperwork?

We guide you through the process and file for the New York State incentive programs you qualify for — NYS Clean Heat, NYSEG and RG&E utility programs, and NYSERDA — so going all-electric is as smooth as possible.

What is NP Shield™?

It’s our exclusive 10+2-year extended labor warranty for Central New York customers: up to 12 years of labor coverage on eligible work, with no surprise labor bills.

Do you use subcontractors?

No. We’re staffed in-house with engineers, designers, and installers, so the same team designs and installs your system from start to finish.
