How Do Heat Pumps Work? What Are the Advantages?
Unlike furnaces and air conditioners that generate temperature-controlled air, heat pumps work differently. They absorb heat from already existing air and then transfer it inside your home. They’re more efficient than traditional units because they work with the surrounding air and use less energy.
In the winter, your heat pump will remove heat from the outside air and disperse it through your home. During the summer, it will remove heat from inside your home and push it outside.
Heat pumps are beneficial because they:
- Provide both heating and cooling. Simply switch between “heating” and “cooling” mode through the seasons.
- Are more energy-efficient and eco-friendly.
- Provide better long-term savings compared to traditional units.
- Offer a longer lifespan than traditional furnaces and air conditioners.
Different Types of Heat Pumps
At Davis, we offer service for a variety of heat pump systems to meet your needs. Here’s a quick breakdown of the two most common types:
- Air-Source Heat Pumps: An air-source heat pump extracts heat energy from outside air and transfers it into your home while in heating mode. In the summer, they reverse the process, acting like an air conditioner by pulling heat out of your home and releasing it outside. Air-source heat pumps are a cost-effective option for many climates.
- Ground Source Heat Pumps (Geothermal Heat Pumps): A ground source heat pump taps into the earth’s constant underground temperature. In heating mode, they circulate a water-based solution through a network of pipes buried in the ground, extracting heat energy from the earth and transferring it to your home. In the summer, the system works in reverse, pulling heat from your home and depositing it back into the ground. Geothermal heat pumps are highly efficient and can significantly reduce your heating and cooling costs.
