What is a heat pump?
A heat pump is a combined heating and air conditioning system that is used year round. In warm seasons, a heat pump functions as a conventional air conditioner, extracting heat from inside and transferring it outdoors. In colder weather, this processes reverses and the heat pump unit collects heat from outdoor air and transfers it inside the home. Although outdoor air is very cold in winter months, it still contains some heat, which the heat pump is able to extract to warm your home. If the outside heat is insufficient, a conventional electric heater supplements the outdoor heat to meet the home’s heating needs. A heat pump is much more energy efficient, producing 2-3 times more heat than the heat it uses.
