If you’re looking for a new heating and cooling solution for your home, you’re not limited to central HVAC systems anymore. Ductless air conditioning is also a popular choice. However, the underrated heat pump may be the perfect solution for your HVAC needs.
What is a heat pump?
A traditional electric or gas furnace generates heat and distributes it throughout the space in your house. A heat pump, however, moves heat from one place to another, much like a refrigerator. During the winter, it draws heat from the air outside and transfers it to the inside of your home. Unlike traditional furnaces, heat pumps can be reversed during warmer months to remove heat from your house and essentially dump it outside.
There are three types of heat pumps: air-to-air, geothermal and water source. These draw heat from the air, the ground and water, respectively, and the most popular of the three is air-to-air.
Benefits of a Heat Pump
Heat pumps are perfect for areas with moderate heating and cooling needs and come with many benefits. Likely the most important of these is efficiency. Heat pumps can provide equivalent cooling and heating at as little as one-quarter of the cost of a central HVAC system. This is because they move heat rather than generate it. Compared to other heating methods, heat pumps can reduce your electricity use for heating by approximately 50%.
In addition to being incredibly cost-effective, heat pumps are also better than central air conditioners at dehumidifying during warmer months. In Houston, humidity is the primary source of discomfort during the summer. Extra dehumidifying power not only makes your home feel more comfortable but also reduces cooling costs.
