Heat Pumps - Year-round Comfort

February 10, 2015

Is it really realistic to be comfortable all year-long without a hitch in your heating and cooling system? It seems like a faraway possibility, especially in York. Deciding on which comfort system is perfect for you also influences your wallet, so making the most informed decision is important to making your home comfortable in the long run.

There is a combined system that could be exactly what you’re scanning for, and don’t let the title fool you into thinking it’s only for heating and not for cooling. Heat pumps are cost effective and energy efficient and may be just what you need. In the cooling mode, heat pumps remove heat from inside the home just like a regular air conditioner. However, in the heating mode, a heat pump reverses the routine and takes heat from outdoor air to heat the inside. Heat pumps can be the best solution to year-long efficient heating and cooling because yes; it can do both! All it takes is to be installed and you’ll increase your energy efficiency immediately if you are replacing an older out-of-date system.

Let’s break it down. What are the main benefits to getting a heat pump in York?

  • Two appliances in one: Since a heat pump heats and cools you will not need different furnace and air conditioner.
  • Clean operation: heat pumps run on electricity and do not [[use|utilize|need[41] fossil fuels like natural gas or propane.

A heat pump may be the correct answer for you and the comfort of your home, specifically if it’s time to replace your current heating and cooling system. They are awesome all-in-one systems that, when used in the proper environment, will absolutely provide you with comfort all year long.
