What Is a Heat Pump?
How Does a Heat Pump Work?
Heat pumps work by taking the heat out of the air outside and moving it into your Charleston area home. Specifically, a heat pump is any device that moves heat from one area to another using a small amount of energy.
Your air conditioning unit, most of the time, works as a heat pump in reverse. It takes out heat from the air in your home when it is warm.
To heat your home properly, your Charleston heat pump will take warm air from outside and heat it before dispersing it throughout your property.
Because the South Carolina Coast doesn't deal with the subzero temperatures in winter like many of the Midwestern or Northeastern areas, this is enough heat to guarantee that you and your loved ones stay warm and comfy. However, because heat pumps are not always used, partly because of the warm, sunny weather we're blessed to have in the Charleston area, some problems are tougher to notice until the next time you need to heat your home, and your unit fails to work correctly.
Charleston Heat Pump Installation
Heat pumps are a good choice when a Lowcountry home plans to have both the air conditioner and old electric furnace replaced at the same time. In situations like this, a heat pump installation offers some excellent benefits.
-
Energy savings: As a heating system, a heat pump costs much less to run compared to an electric furnace. Heat pumps are the most energy-saving electrical heating systems on the market.
-
Two-in-one: You only need to worry about a single system to control your comfort needs all year round.
-
Safety: Heat pumps are one of the safest types of heating systems. Their exterior doesn’t even heat up when in heating mode.
-
Works with standard ductwork: A heat pump replacement for an older system won’t involve making changes to the existing ductwork.
If you are not sure if a heat pump installation is the best choice for your comfort, speak to one of our trained Charleston HVAC technicians and they’ll be happy to answer questions and guide you to the best outcome for you and your home.
