Heat Pump Installation

Heat pumps serve as both your air conditioner and furnace in one energy-efficient unit. By transferring heat rather than generating it, they lower your energy costs while providing year-round comfort. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) even recognizes geothermal heat pumps as one of the cleanest and most cost-effective ways to heat and cool your home.

Why a Heat Pump?

Heat pumps are an ideal choice if you want to reduce your carbon footprint while simplifying maintenance. Instead of caring for separate systems, one heat pump handles both heating and cooling. This dual function not only makes upkeep easier but also offers potential tax credits and deductions from the IRS for eligible models.

How Heat Pumps Work?

In the summer, a heat pump removes warm air and humidity from your home and transfers it outdoors, much like a conventional air conditioner. In the winter, the process is reversed—the unit extracts heat from the outside (or even the ground or water) and circulates it indoors. For very cold days, many systems can work alongside a traditional furnace in a dual-fuel configuration, using the heat pump during moderate weather and switching to the furnace when needed.

Types of Heat Pumps

The most common option is the air-source heat pump, which uses outdoor air to provide both heating and cooling. Water-source heat pumps work similarly but draw heat from a nearby water body such as a pond or lake. Geothermal heat pumps, on the other hand, use underground pipes where temperatures remain steady, offering high efficiency and long-term savings despite higher initial costs.

FAQS

How often should I have my HVAC system serviced?

You should have your HVAC system serviced twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. This will help to ensure that your system is running efficiently and effectively, and it will also help to identify and prevent any potential problems.

What are the benefits of having a programmable thermostat?

A programmable thermostat can help you to save money on your energy bills by allowing you to control the temperature of your home when you are not there. You can program your thermostat to turn down the heat in the winter and turn up the air conditioning in the summer when you are away or asleep.

What is the best way to choose the right size HVAC system for my home?

The best way to choose the right size HVAC system for your home is to have a load calculation performed by a qualified HVAC contractor. This calculation will take into account the size of your home, the number of windows and doors, the insulation value of your walls and attic, and the climate in your area.
