A heat pump is a system that heats and cools your home using electricity. It moves heat from one place to another instead of generating heat like a furnace.

In the winter, it pulls heat from the outside air and brings it indoors to warm your home.

In the summer, it does the opposite by removing heat inside your home to cool it down.

It’s like having a heater and an air conditioner in one system.

Yes, heat pumps are very efficient because they do not generate heat. 

Which means they consume less electricity than conventional heat and air conditioning. 

This ultimately saves money on your electricity bills. 

Although it can be more expensive up front, the savings you see on your bills could be well worth the investment.

The newer heat pumps can work even in the cold. 

They can even take heat from the air outside during chilly conditions. 

Some heat pumps even have an emergency heat supply for extremely cold weather, helping you keep your home warm when it’s cold outside.

Basically, two forms of heat pumps exist:

Air-Source Heat Pumps: The most common heat pump converts the energy from your home to the outside air.

Ground-source (Geothermal) Heat Pumps: These carry heat from your home to the ground.

They’re better at this but more expensive to install.

The type that is right for you depends on what your house needs, where you live, and how much money you have.

A heat pump might be the perfect appliance if you need a high-efficiency heating and cooling system. 

Consider the following:

• Climate: Heat pumps perform best in moderate to cold climates.
• Power Bills: If electricity bills are a low price in your town, you’ll pay less for a heat pump.
• Insulation of the Home: Properly insulated residences most need heat pumps.
• Systems Already in Place: A heat pump will do both if you are replacing heating and cooling.

Make sure to consult with an HVAC expert who can come out to your home and assess whether you need a heat pump or not.
