Is A Heat Pump A Match For Your Home?

by aztilac / Wednesday, 13 October 2021 / Published in Aztil Air Conditioning
heat pump

The dilemma of Floridians is such that their air conditioners will work more than their furnace. The truth is their ACs need to be highly efficient because of the effects of heat and humidity they’ll be required to neutralize. So, it makes no sense to invest in a heating system meant for hardcore performance and will hardly ever be used.

If you, too, are looking for a system that will give you cooling comfort during summers and warmth as and when needed, you might want to consider a heat pump. The obvious question that will pop in your mind on hearing this is – Is the heat pump even a match for my home? To answer that question, allow us to enlighten you a little more about it.

How Heat Pumps Work

Heat pumps work on the simple principle of moving heat from one place to another. When heating or cooling is needed, the heat pump uses the compressor and refrigerant combo to complete the job. In summers, it extracts indoor heat and dispels it outside providing cooling indoors. The reverse happens during the cold fronts. It extracts heat from the outdoor source and circulates it indoors.

What’s Different Between A HVAC System And A Heat Pump Structurally

Both HVAC systems and the heat pump consist of two units, one of which is the outdoor condenser unit. However, the main difference is in what is installed indoors. A typical HVAC unit has a heavy-duty indoor evaporator unit, which is replaced by the heat pump in the latter case.

The heat pump is smaller in size. It takes up less space, but it still offers kick-ass comfort and efficiency.

Advantages Of Owning A Heat Pump

Let’s now talk about the advantages of a heat pump. These include:

1. Year-Round Comfort – As residents of Florida, you are well aware that the air conditioner is used the most and the heater the least. When you install a heat pump, you still get efficient heating on days when the cold front blows in, and on the rest of the days, you can cool your house with the efficient AC. So there is no need to sacrifice your comfort at any time of the year.

2. Can Be Ducted And Ductless – The heat pump is a versatile system. It can connect to the existing ductwork to provide heating and cooling, and if you don’t have one, you can buy its ductless version. Both types are equally good and will do an amazing job in keeping indoors comfy.

3. Efficient And Effective – Alas, you must have heard time and again, it is impossible to get efficiency and effectiveness together in the same bundle. Well, here’s a boo to the naysayers because the heat pump gives you both. 

Disadvantages Of A Heat Pump

It’s time to pay attention to the drawbacks, which include:

1. High Cost – Heat pumps are costly. Nevertheless, the good news is that because they are environment-friendly, the state and electricity companies give you subsidies. So the high cost is made a bit more bearable with the rebates.

2. Complicated Installation – Installing a heat pump is not a simple job. It requires a lot of work, some of which will cause disruption. The heat pump installation requires penetrations to be made through the cladding of the building. It may even require digging in a part of your garden, etc. So its installation is work-intensive.

3. Issues In Excessively Cold Weather – A heat pump serves well only in areas with moderate temperatures. If it’s excessively cold, its heating may not rise to the occasion to make indoors toasty and cozy. At best, it will only succeed in taking the chill away and providing a degree of warmth.

When Is Heat Pump A Good Match For Your Home

Here are the scenarios where you can consider the heat pump a good match for your home:

1. When Your Home Is In An Area Where Temperature Is Moderate – As we said earlier, heat pumps are most suited to only those environments where the temperature does not go to the extremes. If your residence happens to be in a place like Florida, where temperatures are neither too high nor too low, a heat pump will fit the bill.

2. If You Wish To Reduce Your Carbon Footprint – If you are an environment-friendly person who takes the responsibility to go green seriously, the heat pump will not be a disappointment.

3. If You Wish To Lower Your Utility Bills – Heat pumps are incredibly efficient systems. If you are desirous of further cutting down your home’s energy bills, the heat pump will not let you down. When you combine your heat pump with solar panels, you can even make your home eco-friendly and self-sufficient.

4. If You Have The Necessary Budget – Heat pumps are expensive, and so is their installation cost. If you can afford the initial investment, you will be making a smart and responsible investment. In the long run, the additional cost will pay for itself in the form of savings. But yes, you need to have the initial finance to reach that position.

The Gist Of The Matter

Heat pumps are a smart investment for homes where moderate heating and cooling are required throughout the year. Although these units are expensive, yet there are several attractive finance options available. Moreover, with the state-provided subsidy in recognition of your green investment, and the savings that it will render, you will more than make up for the high investment.
