HEAT PUMP

A heat pump is a device that transfers heat from one place to another. In the winter, it extracts heat from the outside air and transfers it inside to warm your home. In the summer, it does the opposite by removing heat from your home and releasing it outside, functioning like an air conditioner.

Yes, heat pumps are generally very efficient. They can produce up to 3 times more heat energy than the electrical energy they consume.

It depends on your climate. In milder climates, a heat pump can replace both heating and cooling systems. In colder regions, a heat pump can be paired with a furnace for efficient hybrid heating.

With proper maintenance, a heat pump can last between 10 to 15 years, though some high-quality models can last even longer.

Modern heat pumps are designed to work in colder temperatures than older models. However, their efficiency may decrease as temperatures drop below freezing. In very cold climates, they might be used in conjunction with another heating source.

For optimal performance and longevity, it's recommended to have your heat pump serviced annually by a professional.

While both systems can cool a home, a heat pump can also provide heat by reversing its operation, making it a versatile choice for both heating and cooling needs.

While the initial cost can be higher than traditional systems, the operational costs of heat pumps are generally lower, and they can lead to energy savings in the long run.

Yes, when operating in cooling mode, a heat pump dehumidifies your home similarly to how an air conditioner does.
