AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS

Experts will argue the best way to heat a home is by capturing heat from the outdoor air. But many people ask, how can you get heat when it’s below freezing outside. Thankfully, French physicist Sadi Carnot established the principles of the Second Law of Thermodynamics back in 1824. In simplest form, the Second Law of Thermodynamics says that heat flows from warmer objects to cooler objects. If you want to extract heat out of air that’s 20° F, you need to have something colder than 20° F in contact with the air. That’s exactly what heat pumps do.

IN SIMPLER TERMS

In colder months, air source heat pumps extract heat from the air outside and distribute it inside. During warmer months, this process is reversed to provide cooling. Today's heat pump can reduce your electricity use for heating by approximately 50% when compared to electric resistance heating from furnaces and baseboard heaters. High-efficiency heat pumps also dehumidify better than standard central air conditioners, resulting in less energy usage and more cooling comfort in summer months.

In recent years, air-source heat pump technology has advanced so that it now offers a legitimate space heating alternative in colder regions like ours. As a result, air source heat pumps use energy much more efficiently and can help with both heating and cooling. In many cases, they offer a smart home energy system upgrade that’s cost and energy efficient.

HEAT PUMP
DISTRIBUTION OPTIONS

  • Ductless applications require minimal construction as only a three-inch hole through the wall is required to connect the outdoor condenser and the indoor heads. In a ductless heating and cooling system, warm or cold air is delivered directly to one or several individual indoor units, which can be controlled separately. There is no central indoor unit in a ductless system, making it easy to heat and cool different parts or rooms of a building to your preference.

    Ductless air source heat pumps are more energy-efficient than ducted versions because they avoid the energy losses associated with ductwork.

  • A ducted air source heat pump incorporates a circuit of air ducts and vents that circulate and transport conditioned air throughout a home. Ducted systems are often used in new construction homes or when replacing outdated equipment that already have a duct system in place.

    Assuring duct work is properly sealed, insulated, and cleaned maximize the efficiency of a ducted system.

  • Single-zone systems are designed for a single room with one outdoor condenser matched to one indoor head.

    Multi-zone installations can have two or more indoor coils connected to one outdoor condenser. Multi-zone indoor coils vary by size and style and each creates its own "zone" of comfort, allowing you to heat or cool individual rooms, hallways, and open spaces.

REBATES AND INCENTIVES
