Cellino Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric upgraded a Buffalo single-family home with a state-of-the-art Carrier dual-fuel system. The project included installing a 100,000 BTU two-stage variable-speed furnace, a 4-ton 17 SEER heat pump, and a new Ecobee smart thermostat. This hybrid setup automatically switches between the heat pump and gas furnace based on outdoor temperatures, delivering year-round comfort and maximizing energy efficiency.
Our team removed the homeowner’s old equipment, installed the new furnace, coil, heat pump, and thermostat, and completed all necessary electrical, gas, venting, and refrigerant connections. A new outdoor pad and disconnect were added for the heat pump, and the system was fully integrated with updated wiring and a new condensate pump.
Upgrading to a dual-fuel system in an existing home requires careful coordination to integrate the new equipment while maintaining home safety and minimizing disruption. The main challenges included routing new electrical and gas lines, installing the heat pump on a new outdoor pad, ensuring proper venting and refrigerant connections, and fully integrating smart thermostat controls.
Cellino’s team carefully planned each step, coordinating installation and testing to ensure both heating and cooling systems worked seamlessly together and met the homeowner’s comfort and energy-efficiency goals.
The result is a modern, high-efficiency dual-fuel HVAC system that optimizes comfort and energy savings throughout the year. The Carrier furnace and heat pump operate in harmony, automatically switching to the most efficient mode based on outdoor conditions. The Ecobee thermostat allows easy smart control, while the fully commissioned system ensures reliable performance for years to come. The homeowner now enjoys consistent indoor temperatures and lower energy costs, with a system designed for convenience, efficiency, and longevity.
