My house gets extremely cold in the Winter and incredibly hot during the Summer. You said that air-source heat pumps are great at heating and cooling modes. That sounds like a fantastic way to keep my home at a comfortable temperature all year long.

My mom has been thinking about getting a ducted heat pump system for her home because she wants to be a lot safer. She would really like to get some help from a professional because they will be able to work a lot better. I liked what you said about how they can be more efficient in heating, cooling, and money because it can be a lot better.

The overall installation cost of your furnace, heat pump or dual fuel system depends heavily on your home’s compatibility and current system setup. For instance, some homes may not have access to natural gas, making an air conditioner and furnace installation a more expensive alternative to a heat pump system.

I agree. Heat pumps come with multiple advantages for your home. Pumping the heat uses less electricity as compared to when electricity is solely used as a means to convert it. During the summers, the cycle can be reversed and the unit acts like an air conditioner.

Heat pumps are very efficient heating and cooling systems and can significantly reduce your energy costs. In thinking of the home as a system, it is recommended that heat losses from your home be minimized from areas such as air leakage (through cracks, holes), poorly insulated walls, ceilings, windows and doors.
