Heat Pumps From SMO Energy

You may have heard about heat pumps being an efficient way to heat and cool your home – but how much do you actually know about them? How do they work? Are there different kinds? How much do they cost? SMO Energy can help you answer all of these questions and get you on your way to saving money and energy with a new heat pump. 

How Does A Heat Pump work?

A heat pump works by moving heat from one area to another, which is similar to how most air conditioning units work. The difference is that heat pumps are functional all year long.

During cold weather a heat pump will pull warm air from outside and move it inside to warm your home. Even when it’s very cold outside, there is still warm air present that can be extracted. Heat pumps work with an air handler or a furnace to help distribute this warm air throughout your home. In warm weather, this process is reversed and the heat pump pulls the warm air out of your home. This leaves the cool, comfortable air to circulate in your home.

Since electric heat pumps do not use extra energy to heat or cool the air (they simply just move the air), they are much more efficient than most heating and cooling systems.

What Is A Ductless Heat Pump?

A ductless heat pump is a heat pump system that works without an HVAC air handler or furnace to distribute the air throughout your home. It uses an outdoor condensor unit and indoor air handlers throughout your home to distribute the air.

These systems work great for homes that are not able to use ductwork. They also allow you to create “zones” for different parts of your home, so different rooms can be set to different temperatures. The air handlers easily and discretely attach to your wall and are connected to the outdoor condensor through a small hole in your wall (rather than a window air conditioner unit or bulky ductwork).

How Much Does A Heat Pump Cost?

If a heat pump sounds like a good fit for your home, then your next question is most likely “How much does a heat pump cost?”

A lot of factors go into determining the cost of a heat pump for your home:

  • Size of your home
  • Size of heat pump you’ll need
  • Condition of furnace or air handler
  • Condition of duct work
  • If ductless, how many condensors and indoor units you’ll need
  • Where the units will be installed
  • Available rebates and special promotions
