Heat Pump Installation
Of all the many innovations that have been made in the heating and cooling industry, heat pumps are some of the most helpful to homeowners and business owners alike. This is because these energy-efficient systems allow you the opportunity to both heat and cool your whole property at once, depending on the season. To learn how you can save money, highly effective HVAC unit, talk to Authority Heating & Cooling about our heat pump services.
How A Heat Pump System Works
Many people have furnaces and traditional ductwork systems already built into their houses and places of business, therefore not everyone is aware of what a heat pump is or how it works. If your home already has a furnace installed, a heat pump may be a great option to replace your current AC, and will work in tandem with your gas furnace to maximize efficiency for both heating and cooling.
The way that a heat pump works is not by creating heat and forcing it throughout the house as traditional furnaces do. Instead, a heat pump works by simply moving hot air that is already present in the environment. Even if you aren’t aware of it, there are constant currents of both warm and cool temperatures moving through your home. These currents simply have to be transferred for you to experience temperature change. Simply put, during the winter, warm air is captured from the outside air using refrigerant, while in the summer, warm air is moved out of the house.
Why Investing in a Heat Pump Will Benefit You
Although there are some places where a heat pump would not be as effective, such as an extremely cold state like Alaska, heat pumps are perfect for a Southwest climate, like that experienced by Utah. This is because there is always guaranteed to be some remnants of warm air that could be moved around.
In addition to being readily available, however, heat pumps have many other benefits, including:
- Lower running costs since heat pumps are not forced to actually “make” warm air through combustion
- Reduced production of carbon emissions, which is better for the environment
- Switches back and forth between gas furnace and heat pump for maximum efficiency
- Uses electricity and reduces and/or eliminates the cost of heating for homes with solar panels
