Heat pumps are the best choice for
heating or cooling your home. It is very cost effective since it serves a dual
purpose while using less energy. Unlike air conditioners that create cold, heat
pumps don’t need to produce heat; they just use a small amount of energy to
move heat from indoors to outdoors.Heat pumps extract heat from the outside
air, which is warmed by the sun’s energy every day of the year, and transfer it
into the house. In cooling mode, heat pumps transfer heat from inside to the
outside just like your fridge does.
Like air conditioners, heat pumps are
also installed outside your home and are then connected to your existing
furnace, air handler or electric baseboard system.
Heat pumps offer more advantages than
traditional furnaces or air conditioners. They are more efficient as they only
use only a small amount of electricity to reverse the natural flow of heat or
cool. Both the heat and cooling produced by pump systems are less intense than
other methods, meaning you won't experience a sudden surge of heat or blast of
cold.
