What Is a Heat Pump?
A heat pump is an advanced HVAC system that moves heat rather than generating it. In colder months, a heat pump extracts heat from the outdoor air and transfers it inside to warm your home. During the summer, it reverses the process, acting as an air conditioner by removing heat from your home and releasing it outside. This versatility makes heat pumps an energy-efficient alternative to traditional furnaces and air conditioners. The introduction of a four-way reversing valve was the key development that made this technology possible.
When heat pumps were originally introduced, limitations on heat transfer meant that they could not properly be used to keep homes warm in cooler temperatures. More recently, the development of cold climate heat pumps can provide heat for your home down to -5⁰ C or sometimes below.
