Heat Pumps Make Heating and Cooling a Breeze 

Per the U.S. Department of Energy, heat pumps are energy-efficient alternatives to furnaces and centralized heating systems. The name is admittedly misleading; during the winter, heat pumps move heat from outdoors and into the house. During the summer, matters change, and heat pumps remove heat from the house and push it outdoors. 

There are many reasons why homeowners should consider getting a heat pump to keep warm this winter. Here, one can learn everything about these appliances, including how they work and the benefits they offer. 

What Is a Heat Pump? How Does It Work? heat pump

As noted, heat pumps move heat from outdoors and push it into the house. How a heat pump works depends on its type. For instance, geothermal heat pumps rely on the Earth’s natural heat to keep a house warm. While these appliances can be expensive to install initially, they can save hundreds of dollars over time. They harness the Earth’s temperature rather than relying on other power sources. 

Yet, that’s not the case for all heat pumps. Consider the following: 

  • Ductless air-source systems heat homes that don’t rely on ductwork. They rely on “reverse cycle chillers,” which sometimes work with a water source. 
  • Absorption heat pumps are relatively new on today’s market. This technology relies on natural gas, steam-heated water, and geothermal heat. 

No matter how a heat pump works, it has one primary goal: keep the home warm or cool, depending on a homeowner’s preferences. Some even work alongside smart home technology, giving homeowners more power over their home’s temperature. Other heat pumps include water-source heat pumps, air-source heat pumps, and other systems. 

The Many Benefits of Ductless Heating 

Many modern homes rely on ducts (or ventilation tunnels) to direct air to certain rooms. However, that’s not the case for older residences. Instead, they must rely on ductless heating systems, which don’t need a centralized system or ducts to work. Some benefits of ductless heating include: 

  • These systems are easy to install. One doesn’t have to spend hours installing a ductless heating system. That’s because mini split heat pumps are relatively easy to install. Of course, if someone needs help, they can consult a trained professional. 
  • These systems save money. Homeowners have full control over when their ductless air systems turn on and off. Many also work alongside smartphone apps, letting residents see how much their monthly energy bill will cost. 
  • These systems are versatile. Heat pumps can suit many rooms, including those that don’t have windows. They also don’t need window units and baseboard heating. 

Saving Energy Means Saving Money save

Heat pumps save money because: 

  • Some models are tax-deductible, letting homeowners write them off on their taxes. 
  • They use less energy because they transfer heat from outdoors instead of generating heat. As noted, geothermal heating relies on the Earth’s natural temperature rather than gas or electricity. 
  • Units for specific climates (like Barrie, ON) are designed to save money and withstand extreme temperatures. 

Homeowners can maximize their savings by using a space heater, insulated windows, and other measures to keep heat inside the home. They can also consult with a trained field professional to learn more.
