What is the difference between a heat pump and furnace?
Many people often ask what the difference between a heat pump and a furnace is. In fact, some people are confused as to what a heat pump even is. Let’s go over it real quick…
An air conditioner that can heat your home
Heat pumps transfer heat with a non-toxic gas referred to as a refrigerant via cycles of evaporation and condensation. During the winter, heat pumps can add warmth to the inside of your home. However, in the summer a heat pump will extract heat from inside your home, and release it outside. This is done through a reversing valve inside of the pump.
An electric alternative to natural gas, and propane.
Heat pumps use electricity to efficiently heat air when it gets cold as opposed to burning fossil fuels.
What are the pros and cons for using a heat pump?
Safer, and cheaper alternatives
Because heat pumps can both heat and cool your home, they are sometimes viewed as economically friendly for homeowners. One of the reasons they are economically efficient is because they move heat rather than actually generate it.
You may require an electrical upgrade
Because a heat pump requires a lot of electricity, certain areas in Tucson & Oro Valley, especially towns known for a lack of power, may notice more inefficiency than efficiency when it comes to their heating and cooling unit. Your home may need an electrical service upgrade if the existing service is not adequate for a heat pump. Give us a call at (520) 623-1855 for a servicemen to help determine your needs and whether or not a heat pump is necessary.
