At Eric Sabo Plumbing Heating & Cooling LLC, we provide professional heat pump installation, maintenance, and heat pump repair for homeowners in Canterbury, CT and surrounding areas. With more than 25 years of experience, our team delivers dependable service focused on efficiency, comfort, and long-term performance.

Heat pumps offer an energy-efficient way to heat and cool your home using a single system. They help lower energy costs, reduce reliance on traditional equipment, and maintain consistent indoor comfort throughout the year.

Get Rid of an Outdated or Inefficient System

An aging heating and cooling system can create ongoing comfort and cost issues for homeowners. Older equipment often struggles to maintain consistent temperatures, leading to hot and cold spots throughout the home and unnecessary strain on the system. As efficiency declines, energy usage increases, driving up monthly utility bills.

Without proper maintenance or timely repairs, outdated systems are also more prone to breakdowns. Frequent service calls, emergency repairs, and worn components can quickly add up, while older technology typically consumes more energy than modern alternatives.

Upgrading to a modern, energy-efficient heat pump helps eliminate these concerns. A newer system delivers reliable year-round comfort, improved efficiency, and reduced operating costs, all while minimizing the ongoing repair demands common with older equipment.

What is a Heat Pump?

A heat pump is an energy-efficient alternative to traditional heating and cooling systems. Instead of generating heat like a furnace or boiler, a heat pump transfers heat from one place to another, using significantly less energy in the process.

During colder months, a heat pump pulls heat from the outside air or ground and moves it indoors to warm your home. When temperatures rise, the system reverses operation, removing heat from inside your home to provide effective cooling. This dual function allows one system to handle both heating and air conditioning.

Modern heat pumps are well suited for a range of climates, including areas like Connecticut. Advances in cold-climate technology allow today’s systems to perform reliably even during lower temperatures. By combining heating and cooling into one efficient system, heat pumps can simplify HVAC setups while reducing energy use and long-term maintenance demands.

The Benefits of Installing a Heat Pump

Choosing a heat pump offers reliable comfort, efficiency, and long-term value for homeowners in Canterbury, CT and surrounding areas.

Energy Efficiency

Heat pumps move heat instead of generating it, which allows them to use significantly less energy than traditional heating systems. This efficiency can noticeably reduce both heating and cooling costs over time.

Year-Round Comfort

A single heat pump system provides dependable heating in winter and cooling in summer. This all-in-one approach eliminates the need for separate systems while maintaining consistent indoor comfort.

Environmentally Responsible

Because heat pumps rely on transferring heat from the air or ground, they reduce reliance on fossil fuels. This makes them a cleaner option with a smaller environmental footprint.

Improved Air Quality

Heat pumps help circulate and filter indoor air, reducing dust, allergens, and airborne particles. This can support a healthier living environment, especially for those with allergies or respiratory sensitivities.

Long-Term Reliability

When properly maintained, heat pumps often last 15 to 20 years. Their durability and efficiency make them a smart investment, especially when supported by professional heat pump repair services when needed.

Lower Maintenance Needs

With fewer mechanical components than traditional HVAC systems, heat pumps typically require less upkeep. Routine inspections and basic maintenance help prevent unexpected repair issues.

Choosing the right professionals for your plumbing and HVAC systems is crucial. Experienced technicians ensure your systems are handled with care.

Totally outrageous estimate! I got the job done for$14,000 cheaper. Was charged $250.00 for a furnace cleaning that wasn't done because I needed a new furnace. Contacted them about a refund they never responded. Would not recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the review. I'd like to set the record straight for anyone reading. Your furnace was manufactured by Lenox in 1989 — it was 36 years old, and paired to a 2009 Trane AC. Unit. The Furnace was failing to light, and Lennox confirmed to us that the unit is obsolete with no parts available. On top of that, it had a failed heat exchanger, which is a carbon monoxide hazard. That is why we could not clean it or put it back into service. The $250 covered the diagnosis that identified those problems. We did that work, so we charged for it. Our quote for $21,000 was for a full system replacement with an high effecency furnace and heat pump. The $15,000 quote was for a 24k BTU duct less system that would have met the CT Energy rebate quallifications. Both of these quotes were for high energy efficiency heat pumps not just a furnace. If you got the job done for $14,000 less, you bought a furnace by itself. And kept the 17 year old AC system. WE would NEVER do that as an option and that is not what we quoted. This is not a fair comparison. You cannot replace a furnace and a full air conditioning system for $7,000. On the refund: we have no record of you contacting us, and I would have responded if you had. But I'll ask you plainly — should we refund the cost of diagnosing a 36-year-old furnace that was unsafe and beyond repair? That diagnosis is the work. It is not free. If you'd like to discuss it, call the office and ask for me directly. Eric

Eric and his crew were efficient, courteous and professional, as always. They answered all of our questions and installed a tank on our water heater for expansion. Update: Eric visited us again in 2026 to perform maintenance on our water heater. The visit was professional and efficient. Eric always responds promptly to messages.
Response from the owner:Thank you Cathy we are pleased to help with the install of your new Bradford White heat pump water heater!

Eric responded quickly after we called. He looked at our boiler/system and gave us a quote for the replacement. He and his workers showed up ON TIME and kept me abreast of how things were going. It took approx. 1.5 days for total change-out. Every worker was very friendly and introduced themselves. Left the area very clean upon completion.
Response from the owner:Thanks Scott we try our hardest to make sure every things goes smooth and as promised. I hope your new system gives you years of trouble free operation!

Excellent communication! Holly called the morning of the appt to say that Ray and Dane were on the way, but there was an emergency situation with another customer who had no heat. Completely understandable. Besides being two of the nicest guys you could hope to meet, Ray and Dane did an excellent job! I also appreciated the follow up call after the job explaining what they found and the repair they did. I won’t hesitate to call Sabo again!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Ralph. We’re glad you had a great experience with our communication and that everything was handled smoothly from start to finish. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Holly, Ray, and Dane.

Starting during this winter's long cold stretch, my water heater was not keeping up at all. Eric assessed the situation and recommended a specific water heater, a zone valve control to ensure cold water during frigid stretches, and a water test. Ray and Dane came out a week later for the install. They did the contracted job and more, were patient with my dogs, and left the place spotless.

Eric Sabo is a rock star, during the last severe winter storm I woke up on Sunday to find my furnace not working, I called multiple local heating companies, and no one would send anyone because of the impending storm. Eric Sabo Plumbing Heating & Cooling were the only one that asked me what my problem was and said they would be right over. Fast response, fair pricing and a quick repair had my furnace back up and running heating my home and hot water. On behalf of myself and my family I cannot Thank Eric Sabo enough.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Daniel! We’re glad we could be there when you needed us most and get your furnace back up and running quickly. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, especially during tough conditions like that storm.
