What Is a Heat Pump?

Heat pumps use refrigerant to distribute heat from one location to another, and they’re known as a much more sustainable, cost-effective, and efficient alternative for home heating. Essentially, they use air that’s already there to heat or cool your home, rather than generate new air.

Can I use my heat pump for cooling?

The obvious answer to this may seem like a resounding no, but that isn’t the case! Heat pumps are meant to be used for both heating and cooling, giving you the comfort you’re looking for, no matter the season or weather.

How Does a Heat Pump Work?

Like we said, with a heat pump, the heat will be transferred from one location to another. This means that, in the winter, outdoor air will be pulled into the home, heated, then poured into your space, and in the summer, the hot air in your home will be pulled out, cooled, then put back into your home.

All this is done with the help of complex parts, including both outdoor and indoor units, refrigerant, reversing and expansion valves, and a compressor. So, while the process seems simple enough, it takes a lot of moving parts cohesively working together to get the job done.

The Pros of Heat Pumps for Home Heating
