Heat Pumps
What is a heat pump system?
A heat pump is like a reversible air conditioner. Instead of buying a heater for the winter and an air conditioner for the summer, you can use a heat pump to do both jobs, potentially saving you money and energy in the long run.
​
Heat pumps are effective in many geographies, but are especially popular in milder climates that don’t have extremely cold or harsh winters. They are an energy-efficient HVAC unit that can both heat and cool your home by transferring heat between the indoors and outdoors. It works by extracting warmth from the outside air, even in cooler temperatures, to provide heating and reverses the process to cool your home in warmer months.
​
While they can save money over time, heat pumps may have a higher upfront cost than traditional heating or cooling systems.
Where do heat pumps work best?
Heat pumps can be a smart and energy efficient HVAC solution no matter where you live, but they’re especially popular in the South or Southwest where temperatures rarely dip below freezing. Even if you live in colder areas of the country, a heat pump may be the right choice for your home when matched with a furnace or other electric heating device. This way, your home will continue to stay warm on the coldest days and run more efficiently for the bulk of the season.
Benefits of heat pumps
​
-
Efficiency: Heat pumps can be more energy-efficient than traditional heaters and air conditioners because they're moving heat rather than creating it.
-
Cost Savings: Since they're efficient, they can lead to savings on your energy bills.
-
All-in-One: You get both heating and cooling from a single unit, which can be convenient and space-saving.
How do heat pumps work?
-
Cooling Mode (like an air conditioner): On a hot day, the heat pump takes the heat from inside your home and moves it outside, leaving your home cooler.
-
Heating Mode: On a cold day, it does the opposite. It takes heat from the outside (yes, there's still some heat even when it's cold!) and moves it inside your home, warming it up.
