Ductless mini-split systems run $3,000 to $8,000 depending on the number of indoor zones. The total price depends on home size, system tonnage, efficiency tier, ductwork condition, and whether electrical upgrades are needed.

Yes. KIC Refrigeration handles all mechanical and electrical permits required for heat pump installation in Moses Lake, WA. We prepare and submit the permit application, schedule the inspection with the local building department, and ensure the installation passes all applicable code requirements. A building permit is required by law for HVAC equipment replacement in most jurisdictions, and it protects you as the homeowner — an unpermitted installation can void the manufacturer warranty, create problems when selling the home, and may not be covered by homeowner insurance if a failure causes property damage. KIC Refrigeration includes permitting in every installation proposal.
The federal minimum efficiency for heat pumps is 15 SEER2 in the southern region and 14.3 SEER2 in the northern region as of January 2023. Systems rated 17 to 21 SEER2 deliver significantly lower monthly cooling costs and typically qualify for utility rebates in WA as well as the federal energy tax credit of up to $2,000 per year. The payback period for upgrading from a 15 to a 20 SEER2 system is typically 5 to 8 years in Moses Lake depending on your usage and electricity rates. KIC Refrigeration calculates projected energy savings for each efficiency tier so you can make an informed decision based on real numbers rather than guesswork.
A standard heat pump replacement in Moses Lake where the existing ductwork and electrical service are adequate takes 1 full day — typically 6 to 10 hours from start to commissioning. New installations that require ductwork modifications, electrical panel upgrades, new concrete pads, or multiple zone setups may take 2 to 3 days. Mini-split installations with 2 to 4 indoor heads typically take 1 to 2 days. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed timeline in your proposal, schedules the installation at a time that works for you, and keeps you informed on progress throughout the project at your Moses Lake property.
