Choosing a heat pump means benefiting from an efficient and energy-saving heating and cooling system that uses natural air resources to heat or cool your home.
Making it friendlier on your wallet and on the planet.
How does a central heat pump work?
A central heat pump transfers heat from outdoor to indoor air in winter, and vice versa in summer. The refrigeration principle draws outdoor heat during winter or expels indoor one over summer. When outdoor temperatures drop below the heat pump’s set point, it must be assisted by a furnace. The set point varies depending on the pump’s efficiency.
What are the advantages of a central heat pump?
A central heat pump uses electricity far more efficiently than an electric furnace or any baseboard. While a furnace or baseboard produces 1 kW of heat using 1 kW of electricity, a heat pump can produce up to 4 kW of heat, consuming only 1 kW of electricity.
This efficiency is measured by the COP (coefficient of performance) of a heat pump, which represents the ratio between energy consumption and produced heat. The COP is crucial, as even if a heat pump operates at very low temperatures, it may have a less favourable COP than another model.
