How a Heat Pump Works
Heat pumps are actually quite simple and have been around for many years. In fact, your air conditioner is a heat pump, pulling warm air out of your house. The same technology works in reverse during the winter months, allowing your home to draw warm air from outside and heat the indoor air to keep you comfortable. You may not think there’s warmth hidden in all of the cold winter air, but there is, and heat pumps are designed specifically for capturing it and transferring it to your home.
In effect, all air has energy in it, even when the temperature is very cold. A heat pump works by drawing the energy from that air and exchanging it through condensers into another environment – in this case, the air in your home. Heated air is then circulated through your house via a series of ducts.
The best part about a heat pump is that it works during the summer to draw the warm air out of your house, effectively cooling your indoor air. No other home comfort system provides both heating and cooling simultaneously.
Heat Pump Installation
A heat pump requires a series of ducts in your home, so if you don’t already have ductwork from an existing furnace, it will need to be installed. Additionally, if you live in a particularly cold environment, heat pumps are not as efficient when the temperature gets too low. They will work to a very low temperature, but eventually, there just is not much warmth to draw from. That’s why a small gas furnace is a good supplement to your heat pump, providing backup heat during the coldest days of winter.
Heat Pump Maintenance
Because your heat pump will be used all year, it must be maintained rigorously. That means routine checkups of all filters, both disposable and permanent. With regular maintenance, you can expect your heat pump to provide comfortable indoor temperatures for years to come with minimal repairs necessary.
If repairs are necessary, however, we offer a full range of services to quickly get your system back in working order. From duct patching and repair to replacement of parts in your heat pump, we strive to get your system back online in no time.
Geothermal Heat Pumps
Traditional heat pumps work using the heat in the air. However, a geothermal heat pump offers the same benefits as a standard model with a more reliable energy source – the earth. Because the ground beneath your home is filled with warmth, the water circulating through a geothermal heat pump system is more reliable, even during the coldest months of winter. And a geothermal heat pump will offer similar cooling benefits during the hottest days of summer when the temperature below ground is colder than above.
If a heat pump sounds like a good fit for your home or if you already have one and need routine maintenance or repairs performed, call the Cooler Company today. Our Denver area heat pump experts can help you determine which heat pump is best suited for your home or, if you already have a system, they can provide professional maintenance and repair services as they’re needed.
