Heat Pump Articles

So you are looking to invest in a heat pump. You are not alone––many Americans are making the switch.

Which is better for your home, an air conditioner or a heat pump? Each has their pros and cons. Use these tips to find what is the best choice.

A heat pump is a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system that transfers heat from one place to another, from inside to outside or from outside to inside. In the winter a heat pump works like a heater, extracting heat energy from outside and transferring it inside—instead of generating its own heat like a furnace. In the summer the process reverses, and it removes heat from your home and transfers it outside like an air conditioner.
