Heat pumps are devices that use electricity to extract heat from one source and transfer it to another. In simple terms, a heat pump moves heat rather than generates it. Heat pumps are an energy-efficient year-round alternative to traditional furnaces and air conditioners for those who live in climates with moderate heating and cooling needs. Our team will help you choose durable heat pumps within your budget, give us a call today.
Benefits of a Heat Pump
Heat pumps are primarily used to get year-round comfort by supplying heat during winter, cooling during summer, and in certain situations, providing hot water. As the most commonly used electrical appliance, heat pumps are one of the best options for various applications, including the construction of new buildings and refurbishing existing air conditioning. Since the cost difference between a cooling-only system and a heat pump is usually minimal, they're a good alternative if you want to replace your old air conditioner with a cost-effective option. Here are some other benefits of heat pumps:
- Energy-efficient: Heat pumps work by transferring air from one place. For instance, in the winter, they extract the warm air from the outside, and in the winters, they transfer it inside and vice-versa in the summer. The whole process saves more energy and reduces your monthly bills.
- Less maintenance: Heating systems that use a heat pump need less upkeep than those that use a combustion engine. We recommend professional maintenance once a year, ask us about our maintenance contracts!
- Low carbon emissions: The efficient conversion of electricity to heat in a heat pump system lowers the carbon footprint. For instance, water source heat pumps can achieve close to 600% efficiency levels.
- Long-term durability: Heat pumps have a longer duration of up to 50 years, but the average lifespan is about 14 or 15 years. Despite their size, these heaters are dependable and consistent heat sources.
- Better indoor air quality: Heat pumps enhance indoor air quality by circulating and combining airflow with the air inside the home. As a result, you get cleaner and more pleasant air to breathe.
