Installing or Replacing a Heat Pump
Heat pumps help achieve total home climate control and comfort. They look and perform like air conditioners, only they can also heat your home. Using electricity as an energy source rather than heating fuels, heat pumps extract heat from the air to keep you cool during the summer, warm in the winter and comfortable all year long.
The biggest difference between heat pumps and other heating systems is that they move heat rather than create it. There are different types of heat pumps, such as geothermal and water, but the most common are air-sourced. Air heat pumps can come as split systems, package units or mini-split ductless systems.
Benefits of Heat Pumps
Heat pumps may be used as a standalone system or in combination with other heating sources — such as a furnace or boiler — to provide the following benefits:
- Reduction of heating costs by up to 40%
- Quieter operation
- Longer equipment lifespan
- Less use of fossil and alternative fuels
- Improved air quality from dehumidifying the air
- Less need for fuel during the winter for homes using furnaces as backup systems
