Heat Pumps for Cooling
How A Heat Pump Operates
Many people are changing out their current system for a heat pump because of the versatility of heat pumps. A heat pump can both heat and cool your home, which means that a heat pump is effective year round, regardless of the temperature.
Heat pumps are used to move heat from the air or the ground into a home or office building, but they can also be used to cool a space by pumping the air through refrigerant-filled coils before blowing it into your home or office building.
Why Should I Use a Heat Pump?
A heat pump has big advantages over a standard heating and cooling systems. With a heat pump you get both heating and cooling and save energy using the earths consistent underground temperatures to do much of the work in changing the temperature.
Because heat pumps have fewer moving parts than a regular HVAC system, they tend to require fewer repairs and less maintenance. In short, heat pumps are more reliable.
The other big advantage is that heat pumps are more efficient than most other systems because, rather than using energy to create heat, heat pumps use existing heat. Consequently, your energy bills tend to be lower than they would otherwise be with a furnace or HVAC. Finally, with the right kind of modifications, heat pump systems can also work in conjunction with your existing indoor heating and cooling systems, resulting in an overall system that is more efficient.
However, heat pumps don’t work well in very cold spaces; they need to be placed in an area that stays between 40 and 90 degrees. Also, keep in mind that some heat pumps can require a large uncooled space to capture heat from the surrounding air. Heat pumps also require a drain to discharge the condensate they produce. Most homes are already set up in a way in which a heat pump can be easily installed.
