Heat Pump Operation
A heat pump is unique from other home comfort systems because it offers both heating and air conditioning. You may be surprised to find that you already have at least one heat pump in your home as the same technology is actually used in your refrigerator and freezer.
A heat pump is simply a device that uses a compressor and condenser to transfer heat from one environment to another. In the case of your refrigerator or air conditioner, that heat is removed to keep the interior cold. However, the same process can work in reverse, drawing hidden warmth from outside air and bringing it inside to keep you warm in the winter.
A heat pump is unique in its ability to provide both heating and AC, allowing you to use just one device to keep your home comfortable year-round. And because modern heat pump technology is so much more energy efficient than in years past, you can save a tremendous amount of money on your monthly bills if you have a heat pump installed as a replacement to an older system or if gas and oil prices in your area are very high.
Heat Pump Options
To choose a heat pump, you must first determine how much heating and AC your home needs. To do this, a professional will perform a heat load calculation on your home. Using the capacity of your current heating and cooling systems, combined with square footage of your home, your insulation, number of rooms and current air handler system, we can determine the capacity needed to keep your home comfortable while minimizing costs.
We will also determine if your current system needs any upgrades to accommodate a new heat pump. While not common, we may need to upgrade or adjust your air handler and ductwork to accommodate your new heat pump.
